    About this ebook

    When speaking about Jesus, are we confined only to belief? If we examine historical sources, can we come to the conclusion that Jesus of Nazareth was non-existent? What do the facts tell us?

    “How can I know...?” is a review of fascinating documents of the first centuries of our era. The conclusions of their analysis are a challenge to everyone who is sincerely seeking the truth. One cannot remain indifferent.
