Messianic Prophecies-“Jesus or Bust: An Argument from Extraordinary Circumstances (on “1P3” Podcast)

I (Dale) guest star on Luis Dizon’s “1P3” segment of the Reason and Theology Podcast to outline my own nuanced version of an argument from Messianic Prophecies whereby I argue that a unique set of circumstances arises with either the “bona fide” unfalsified claims about Jesus being a viable Messianic candidate are true or else no one is the Jewish Messiah (i.e., the “Bust” option) obtains. I argue this is a rather “extraordinary” circumstance as it is unique despite there being ample opportunity for others to equally qualify based on their own claims and/or in other religions for a similar situation to arise such as in Islam, which claims many Biblical prophecies about Muhammed; unfortunately we see that Islam fails to establish a “Muhammed or Bust” circumstance where as Jesus does so!
