The resurrection is affirmed through scriptural prophecies, eyewitness accounts, and its foundational role in Christian faith.
The resurrection of Christ is a cornerstone of the Christian faith, underscored in 1 Corinthians 15 where Paul states that if Christ has not been raised, our faith is futile (1 Corinthians 15:14). The resurrection fulfills numerous Old Testament prophecies and was witnessed by numerous individuals after Christ's death, all of which corroborate its truth. John 5:25 emphasizes that the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and live, indicating that Christ's resurrection has transformative implications not only for Him but also for all those who believe in Him. As believers, we place our faith in the reliable and authoritative Scriptures, which confirm the resurrection as a factual and historical event, providing hope for our own resurrection.
