Description

The Person of Christ is a book written by Philip Schaff that explores the historical evidence and theological significance of Jesus Christ. The book is divided into three parts: the first part provides a detailed examination of the historical evidence for the existence and life of Jesus, with a particular focus on the miracles attributed to him. The second part offers a response to the criticisms of two prominent 19th-century scholars, David Strauss and Ernest Renan, who had argued that the supernatural elements of the Gospels were myths or legends. Schaff defends the historical reliability of the Gospels and argues that they provide a true account of the life and teachings of Jesus. The third part of the book is a collection of testimonies from various unbelievers, including philosophers, scientists, and writers, who have been moved by the person and teachings of Jesus. Overall, The Person of Christ is a scholarly and engaging exploration of the historical and theological significance of Jesus Christ.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
