Historical Truth. ( 1 Corinthians 15 v 1

Malcolm Muggeridge wrote the following, ''If you say to me,do you believe that Jesus's birth was by a virgin ?.Yes I do,because I think the whole drama requires that. But that's entirely different from saying  that I believe that a particular female,without anything happening, conceived and bore a child and that, that child was Jesus. In other words, I see it as an artistic truth rather than an historical truth''.Here is a man who was admired for his wonderful writing, a man who professed to be a Christian,and many people got carried away with that,but let be very clear ,that Mr Muggeridge  was very much in error in what he said  Our faith must be based on historical truth ,not in so called artistic truth, no,the birth of  Christ,and the life of  Christ, the death of Christ,and the resurrection of Christ,and His ascension, were historical facts.If any of these are not historical happenings then they are not true,but they are true,these wonderful things really happened, and when one embraces the  Jesus of history,then your life and your destiny will be gloriously changed for ever.
