Evidence for the Resurrection

e-bok


The resurrection of

Jesus Christ is in many respects the most important fact in history. It is the

Gibraltar of Christian evidences, the Waterloo of infidelity. If it can be

proven to be a historic certainty that Jesus rose from the dead, then

Christianity rests upon an impregnable foundation. Every essential truth of

Christianity is involved in the resurrection. If the resurrection stands, every

essential doctrine of Christianity stands. If the resurrection goes down, every

essential doctrine of Christianity goes down. Intelligent skeptics and infidels

realize this. A leading skeptic has recently said that there is no use wasting

time discussing the other miracles; the essential question is, Did Jesus Christ

rise from the Dead? If He did, it is easy enough to believe the other miracles.

If He did not, the other miracles must go. I am confident that this skeptic has

correctly stated the case.
