I have just been reading this interesting book called the Muslim Christ, which is basically how Jesus is portrayed in Islam. It is an interesting book as it clearly shows the contradictions that the Koran has towards Jesus,
Some verses show him the messiah filled with the Spirit of God, others as just a prophet and apostle, other verses show him as having died and risen from the dead, whilst other say he did not die but was replaced by someone else. But above all else what struck me was how little the Koran and the Hadiths have about the historical Jesus as given in the Bible and other ancient literature.
when we come face to face with the real historical Jesus, we clearly without a doubt see that he is the Son of God, sent from God as the Saviour of the world. See John1 v1. (Or indeed many other parts of the Bible)
He is the way of salvation john 3 v 16, He is one with God John 10 v 30 – 36, He is the way to God John 14 v 6.
He was crucified and rose from the dead days later. John 19 – 20.
Of these things we can be absolutely sure.

Congratulations on this website and your new church plant. I visit Yorkshire every year and always enjoy it, so it is great to see a new church there.
