Quotes from Ex-Atheist Homicide Detective, J. Warner Wallace:

"I decided to test the Gospel authors by asking the same four questions I would typically ask of any eyewitness in a criminal investigation.

Were these authors really present to see what they said they saw? Could their claims be corroborated in some way? Were they consistent, or did their story about Jesus change over time? Were they motivated to lie?

For the next six to eight months, I investigated the death and resurrection of Jesus like the many cold cases I’ve solved over the years.

"The Gospel authors passed the four-part test I typically applied to eyewitnesses in my criminal cases. Their written accounts reliably and accurately described the resurrection of Jesus without ulterior motive. When I realized this was the case, everything changed for me. I’m inclined to assign a higher level of authority to someone who has demonstrated His divinity by rising from the grave. I reread the words of Jesus from a new perspective, and once I realized the New Testament was telling the truth about Him, I started to pay close attention to what it was saying about my predicament. It accurately described Jesus as God incarnate with the power to forgive sins and shoulder the cost of human rebellion. It accurately described me as a fallen, defiant sinner in need of that kind of Savior."
