Was Jesus A Failed Prophet?

Weekly Meeting 10/17/2024

Jesus hasn’t returned yet. Is it Joever for Christianity?

‘…But there is worse to come. ‘Say what you like,’ we shall be told, ‘the apocalyptic beliefs of the first Christians have been proved to be false. It is clear from the New Testament that they all expected the Second Coming in their own lifetime. And, worse still, they had a reason, and one which you will find very embarrassing. Their Master had told them so. He shared, and indeed created, their delusion. He said in so many words, “this generation shall not pass till all these things be done.” And He was wrong. He clearly knew no more about the end of the world than anyone else.’

ABOUT

Ratio Christi (Latin “reason for Christ”) serves to defend the Christian faith in honest dialogue with both our skeptical & believing friends at Texas A&M. Together, we investigate the historical, philosophical, and scientific reasons for the truth, rationality, and significance of the message of Jesus Christ, a discipline known as apologetics. If you are a student, faculty, or staff at Texas A&M University, we invite you to join us. Contact us at https://tx.ag/RatioChristi
