Episode Notes: "The Proof of Christianity" (John 2:12-22)

In this episode, I consider the proof of Christianity, examining why it’s important to address this topic even among believers. Using John 2:12-22, which recounts Jesus cleansing the temple, we explore the evidence supporting Christianity and discuss how the resurrection serves as the ultimate proof of Jesus' messianic identity and divine authority.
