J. Warner Wallace, author of Cold-Case Christianity, was interviewed by Bobby Conway (The One Minute Apologist) and discussed the nature of evidential cases. What reasonable expectations should we have for the case for Christianity? Can we be certain about our conclusions even when we still have unanswered questions?

i wish to thank j. w. wallace for giving me the clarity of mind, methodology, and interest to pursue the date of the birth of Jesus and His crucifixion. thanks to the internet, science, astronomy, archeology, history, forensic science, criminology, prophecy, and the bible, we can reconstruct and determine precisely the dates of events down to the minute of the life of Jesus Christ.
i am quite assured, thanks primarily to frederick larson, as well as other online resources, that Jesus was born on September 11, 3 BC/1 tishri 3758 anno mundi. this would have coincided with the 750th anniversary of Rome and on Feb 5, 2 BC the assumption of the title pater patria by Augustus. all the elements are there necessary for a census of the whole world or an oath of loyalty to Augustus.
one other data point remains which i am unable to determine but would add a higher probability that 3 BC was indeed the birth of Jesus. Luke notes that the 8th day after the birth of Jesus is His circumcision of course. the narrative also gives a clue that this was Yom Kippur. this is possible if this is Yom Kippur in the Essene Calendar, because the Jewish Yom Kippur is 10 tishri.
Jim, I find your approach to Christian apologetics fascinating. Looking forward to reading your book, "A Person of Interest".
Thank you
