H. G. Wells who wrote The War of the Worlds (1898) stated, “I am an historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history.” The apostle Paul goes further than this, “All things were created through him [Jesus] and for him....in him all things hold together” (Colossians 1:16-17).
