Currently Playing: Sam Shamoun Proves To Former Sikh What Early History Confirms On Jesus

Sam Shamoun walks a former sikh caller why is that people from other religions and the people around christians converted and believed in Jesus in 1 Thessalonians, the letter even skeptic Bart Ehrman dates to around 49 AD as the earliest New Testament writing, to show how quickly the early church was already worshiping Jesus as fully divine. He points out that within roughly a decade of the crucifixion, thousands of Gentiles had abandoned their gods to worship a recently executed Jew, and asks what could possibly account for that apart from the resurrection actually happening, especially with hostile eyewitnesses, the Sanhedrin, Roman soldiers, and Pilate himself still alive and able to expose the claim if it were false. Sam then builds a case for Jesus being identified as Yahweh by comparing Zechariah 9 and 14, where Yahweh comes down with his holy ones, blows the trumpet, lands on the Mount of Olives, and reigns as the only king, against Paul's descriptions in 1 Thessalonians of Jesus descending from heaven with all his saints and with the trumpet of God, on a day repeatedly called the day of the Lord. He argues that Paul, a Jew deeply familiar with the Hebrew scriptures, knew exactly what he was doing by applying these passages to Jesus, which would be outright blasphemy if Jesus were merely a man, and closes by tying it all back to the resurrection as the foundation for everything the early church believed.
