The historical existence and resurrection of Jesus Christ are critical proofs of His truthfulness (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
Jesus Christ's existence in history is a cornerstone of Christian faith. Over 2,000 years ago, He was born, walked the earth, and was crucified, a fact established by numerous historical accounts. His resurrection, attested by over five hundred witnesses, is the lynchpin that supports the validity of His claims. The profound impact He has had on history, culture, and individual lives further solidifies the truth of His presence. No other figure has left such a lasting mark without having written a book or leading a powerful earthly kingdom. This enduring influence is best understood through the lens of faith, which acknowledges Christ as God incarnate.
