Jesus Quote by Lee Strobel
““The idea that Jesus never really died on the cross can be found in the Qur’an,1 which was written in the seventh century—in fact, Ahmadiya Muslims contend that Jesus actually fled to India. To this day there’s a shrine that supposedly marks his real burial place in Srinagar, Kashmir.2””
