How do we know that the resurrection of Jesus is true?
Answered in 6 sources
The resurrection of Jesus is affirmed by Scripture and the testimony of the apostles, who witnessed His suffering and proclaimed His resurrection.
The resurrection of Jesus is central to the Christian faith and is supported by several New Testament passages, particularly in the teachings of the apostles. For instance, in Acts 17:3, Paul reasoned with the Jews from the Scriptures, explaining that Christ must suffer and rise again, revealing the necessity of the resurrection for fulfilling God’s plan of salvation. The apostles collectively testified to having seen the resurrected Christ, which bolstered their preaching and provided a basis for faith in the resurrection's truth.
