What benefit is there in studying New Testament scholars who do not affirm the resurrection of Jesus? According to our guest this week, resurrection scholar Dr. Gary Habermas, who has spent the majority of his academic career doing this very thing, much in every way. This week and next on the Profile Gary discusses with us volume one of his life's labor of love, On the Resurrection: Vol 1: Evidences. It is over a thousand pages and there is arguably nothing like it out there today. Gary's magnum opus ontains an unparalleled, extensive commentary about what skeptical scholars affirm about the Gospel accounts and the New Testament in general regarding the deity, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

Gary Habermas (Ph.D., Michigan State University) is a distinguished Research Professor at Liberty University Graduate School. He has dedicated his professional life to the examination of the relevant historical, philosophical, and theological issues surrounding the death and resurrection of Jesus. His extensive list of publications and debates provides a thorough account of the current state of the issue. He has also contributed more than 60 chapters or articles to additional books, and over 100 articles and reviews in journals and other publications. In recent years, he has been a visiting or adjunct professor at about 15 different graduate schools and seminaries in the United States and abroad. He is the author of fifty books, half of them on the resurrection of Jesus. See: www.GaryHabermas.com.
