How do we know that Jesus Christ's resurrection is true?
Answered in 1 source
The resurrection of Jesus is validated by the eyewitness accounts and the historical impact it had on His followers.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is not only a core tenet of Christian faith but also supported by multiple eyewitness reports. After His crucifixion, many individuals, including Mary Magdalene and the apostles, encountered the risen Christ (Matthew 28:5-10; John 20:19-29). Their testimonies transformed them from frightened individuals into bold proclaimers of the gospel, even in the face of persecution and death. The empty tomb serves as a powerful symbol of Christ's victory over sin and death, validating His promises and declarations. Without the resurrection, the Christian faith would be in vain, as stated in 1 Corinthians 15:14, but the historical evidence compels believers to trust in its truth.
