History #11 ✡ The Heroes They Needed: Biesenthal & the Martyrs (Early Church 3)
Messianic History: Return of the Jewish Jesus

1h 12m
Imagine being Jewish and not knowing anything about Yeshua of Nazareth except garbled hearsay. Then you read the New Testament and encounter him, but you still don't know what came after the book of Acts. Dr. Biesenthal stepped in to tell that story and give a generation of Jewish believers the heroes they needed. From Nero to Diocletian, for four chapters he told the bloody stories of thousands of disciples who paid the ultimate price. In the process not only did he inspire the young Hebrew Christian movement, he also offered a glimpse into his own heart. This is part three of brother Joachim's history of early Christianity.
