A questioner points to a potential contradiction within the Christian worldview, namely, a long pre-history prior to Christ's atoning work on the cross and God's loving desire to provide humanity a solution for sin. Here is my response.

Evidence for Jesus as an historical figure from non-biblical sources. 

 https://mcewingstuart.wixsite.com/website/post/is-jesus-a-myth

"It is fair to say that mythicists as a group, and as individuals, are not taken seriously by the vast majority of scholars in the fields of New Testament, early Christianity, ancient history, and theology. This is widely recognized, to their chagrin, by mythicists themselves."
~ Bart Ehrman, Did Jesus Exist?

Jesus asked "Who do you say I am?" Muslims respond "You are Isa." 

What do Muslims believe about Isa? And what does the Qur'an contribute to the search for the historical Jesus?

What if it works? What about the testimonies? 

My recent series on Robert Henderson’s book Operating in the Courts of Heaven, which presents a new model of intercessory prayer, engendered some discussion where some points of clarification and matters of practical application were needed.

Concluding the series are my conclusions and recommendations about Robert Henderson's book Operating in the Courts of Heaven, which presents an alternative model of intercessory prayer.

The courtroom trial of Simon-Peter. 

This is an example of how not to do biblical exegesis: have an idea of what the text is saying and squeeze your interpretation between the lines.

Is Romans 8:29-30 a five stage process for operating in the courts of heaven, as Robert Henderson claims, or is it an 'unbroken chain' securing salvation?

The parable of the persistent widow. 

Robert Henderson usually begins his presentations, including his book Operating in the Courts of Heaven, with this parable, suggesting the clue to effective prayer it offers is that it takes place in a judicial setting. What does this passage of scripture really teach? Does it confirm his courtroom model of prayer? 

https://mcewingstuart.wixsite.com/website/post/the-courtroom-on-trial-part-8

One of the reasons you might reject Henderson's Courtroom Model of Prayer is that it's too much effort: it teaches a theology of salvation by works. See here for details.

 https://mcewingstuart.wixsite.com/website/post/the-courtroom-on-trial-part-6

On Robert Henderson's Courtroom model of prayer Christ has to continually offer his blood before God as an atonement for sin, contra the teaching of scripture that Christ died once for all. 

Can he dispense with this part of the model without loosing the whole thing?
Can he avoid the implication that Christ's sacrificial death on the cross was not enough?

Your thoughts are welcome.

If Robert Henderson is right about the Courts of Heaven, then there is a dilemma: either God is not all-knowing or heaven is a hell! Find out why here.

I would like to ask him how he escapes this dilemma?

https://mcewingstuart.wixsite.com/website/post/the-courtroom-on-trial-part-4

Robert Henderson is a man whom I have much to learn from. I have looked at his teaching on the Courts of Heaven and need to ask: Why is God subject to a law when it is He who is the ultimate, above which there is no other? 
https://mcewingstuart.wixsite.com/website/post/the-courtroom-on-trial-part-3

This the most confusing aspect of Robert Henderson's book Operating in the Courts of Heaven. He needs to be asked this: "Is what you describe more literal in nature, or more metaphorical?" In either case, he needs to be more clear as to the nature of his model.

What are the tools and rules historians use to decide on whether any historical saying or event is authentic or not? You will also see why historians who use them do not talk with certainty about anything, but always in terms of probability.
