What does the Bible say about the significance of Jesus' resurrection?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible emphasizes that Jesus' resurrection is central to the Christian faith, validating His claims as the Messiah and Savior.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of Christian theology, as highlighted in Acts 2:32, where it is proclaimed that 'this Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.' The resurrection not only demonstrates God's power over death but also assures believers of their own future resurrection. In 1 Corinthians 15:17, it is stated that if Christ has not been raised, our faith is futile. The resurrection signifies the acceptance of Christ’s sacrifice by God, making it a pivotal event that confirms Jesus as both Lord and Christ (Acts 2:36).
