In their book "What if Jesus had never been born " by Dr James Kennedy and Jerry Newcomer wrote about a notable event that took place in the nineteenth century Charles Bradlaugh, a prominent atheist, challenged a Christian man to a debate on the validity of the claims of Christianity. The Christian, Hugh Price Hughes, was an active soul-winner working among the poor in the slums of London. Hughes told Bradlaugh he would agree to the debate on one condition. Hughes said, "I propose to you that we each bring some concrete evidences of the validity of our beliefs in the form of men and women who have been redeemed from the lives of sin and shame by the influence of our teaching. I will bring 100 such men and women, and I challenge you to do the same." Hughes then said that if Bradlaugh couldn't bring 100, then he could bring 50; if he couldn't bring 50, then he could bring 20. He finally whittled the number down to one. All Bradlaugh had to do was to find one person whose life was improved by atheism and Hughes—who would bring 100 people improved by Christ—would agree to debate him. Bradlaugh withdrew!' If such a debate challenge and counterchallenge were offered today, the response would be comparable. People are not improved by atheism, unless they so define that as abandoning a twisted form of Christianity that isn't Christianity at all! But people are improved by the gospel of Christ. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new — The apostle Paul (2 Corinthians 5:17) The Bible are unique in that it doesn't just claim authority, but it does what it says it will do, it heals, it transforms, it changes lives. The workings of the gospel in the life of men all around the world is overwhelming. From the early apostles, who were afraid, unschooled and ordinary fishermen but became fervent world changers to the martyrs and even in our own days, we can see the work of Christ in the lives of many. This book is a collection of some life's impacted by the cross compiled for the purpose for exhortation and resource disposition for ministry.
