Proof Jesus Christ rose from the dead 👇
1. He appeared to over 500 people (514)
2. All 4 gospel accounts share the same core message about the Resurrection - cross examination of the eyewitness testimonies. All written at different times by different people in different places and yet same message bc it was the truth
3. The Romans would have no reason to steal Christ’s body. Their goal was to keep the peace in Palestine
4. The Jewish religious leaders would have no motive in stealing the body because that would only stir up the movement they tried to crush
5. If the Jewish leaders stole the body they could’ve openly displayed the body to prove that Jesus didn’t rise from the dead. Which they 100% would’ve done
6. If the disciples stole the body, then why would they choose to suffer and die for a cause they knew to be a lie?
7. Why would hundreds of Jesus’ followers be willing to die for what they knew to be a lie?
8. The reason the disciples were so willing to endure torture and suffering was because Jesus Christ proved He resurrected, which meant they as His followers would also be resurrected from the dead. They were all transformed from cowards to lions of the faith. They no longer feared death bc they knew once they died they got to be with Jesus again who they all grew to love deeply, and therefore were willing and even excited to endure torture for His names sake. Peter who before the crucifixion denied Jesus to a group of girls was willing to be tortured to death on a cross upside down after seeing the resurrected Christ. In the scriptures they all repeatedly wrote about receiving eternal life through faith in Christ
9. People who were hostile prior to Jesus’s death became His more ardent supporters afterwards
10. Within 5 weeks of Jesus’s death more than 10,000 Jews relinquished rituals that had long given them national identity
11. Emergence of new rituals - communion and baptism. The early Jews baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Meaning they had elevated Jesus to the full status of God.
12. The resurrection explains the rapid rise of a new church, which began shortly after the death of Jesus. Within 20 years this new church reached Caesar’s palace in Rome and eventually spread throughout the Roman empire.
13. Every one of Jesus‘s disciples was willing to suffer and die for their beliefs. They spent the rest of their lives witnessing about Christ. They frequently went without food, were mocked, beaten, thrown into prison and all but one died a painful martyr’s death. The only way they would have done this is if they were convinced beyond a doubt that they had seen the risen Christ.
14. The ongoing encounter with the resurrected Christ that happens all over the world. People all of the world testify that more than any single thing in their lives, Jesus Christ has changed them.
15. Peter was crucified upside down in Rome
16. Andrew was crucified on an X shaped cross - preached for days while hanging
17. James was beheaded
18. John was boiled in oil, and later exiled. Survived both and died naturally
19. Philip was crucified
20. Nathanael was skinned alive
21. Thomas was speared to death in India
22. Matthew killed with a sword
23. James was beaten and stoned
24. Thaddaeus killed with arrows
25. Simon was sawn in half
26. Matthias was stoned
27. Paul was beheaded
28. In all of their sufferings, not one ever renounced their faith in Christ or admitted to stealing the body to fake the resurrection. If it wasn’t true, at least one of them would admit it to avoid these torturous deaths
29. The apostles heard His voice with their ears, they saw Him with their eyes, and touched Him with their hands after Jesus resurrected - 1 John 1:1-3
