Sunday Quote: Liars Make Poor Martyrs

“The disciples’ willingness to suffer and die for their beliefs indicates that they certainly regarded those beliefs as true. The case is strong that they did not willfully lie about the appearances of the risen Jesus. Liars make poor martyrs.”

– Gary Habermas & Michael Licona (The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus, p. 59)
