The Scriptures present definitive evidence that Jesus Christ was indeed resurrected from the dead.
Matthew 28:1-20 refers to Christ’s resurrection; Mark 16:1-20; Luke 24:1-53; And recorded in John 20:1-21:25. The resurrection of Christ also appears in the book of Acts (Acts 1:1-11). From these verses you can find many “proofs” of Christ’s resurrection. The first is the dramatic change in the disciples. They went from a group of people who feared and hid to become bold and courageous witnesses who preached the gospel all over the world. What else could explain this dramatic change but the risen Christ appearing to them?
The second is the life of Paul the Apostle. What changed him from a persecutor of the churches to an apostle of the churches? This is because the risen Christ (Acts 9:16) appeared to him on the road to Damascus. A third convincing piece of evidence is the empty tomb. If Christ is not resurrected, where is his body? The disciples and others saw the tomb where he was laid. When they returned, his body was not there. The angel announced that He had risen from the dead as He had promised (Matthew 28:5-7). Fourth, further proof of His resurrection is the many people to whom He appeared (Matthew 28:5, 9, 16-17; Mark 16:9; Luke 24:13-35; John 20:19, 24, 26-29, 21: 1-14; Acts 1:6-8; 1 Corinthians 15:5-7).
Another proof of the resurrection of Jesus Christ is the voluminous testimony of the resurrection of Jesus given by the disciples. A key passage of Christ’s resurrection is 1 Corinthians 15. In this chapter, the apostle Paul explains why it is important to understand and believe in the resurrection of Christ. Resurrection is important for the following reasons: 1) If Christ had not risen from the dead, believers would not have risen (1 Corinthians 15:12-15). 2) If Christ had not risen from the dead, His sacrifice for sin was not sufficient (1 Corinthians 15:16-19). The resurrection of Jesus proved that His death was accepted by God as an atonement for our sins. If he were only dead, that would indicate that his sacrifice was not enough. As a result, believers would not be forgiven for their sins, And when they died, they would remain dead (1 Corinthians 15:16-19). There would be no such thing as eternal life (John 3:16). “Indeed Christ has risen from the dead. He is the firstfruits of those who die” (1 Corinthians 15:20).
Finally, the Scriptures are clear that all who believe in Jesus Christ will be resurrected to eternal life just like Him (1 Corinthians 15:20-23). First Corinthians 15 describes how Christ’s resurrection has proven His victory over sin and given us the power to live victoriously over sin (1 Corinthians 15:24-34). It describes the glorified nature of the body we will receive upon resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:35-49). It declares that, as a result of Christ’s resurrection, those who believe in Him will finally have victory over death.
What a glorious truth the resurrection of Christ is! “Therefore, my dear brother, be steadfast and steadfast. Always grow in the Lord’s work. For you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain” (1 Corinthians 15:58). According to the Bible, the resurrection of Jesus Christ is an absolute truth. The Bible gives an account of Christ’s resurrection, this account records that he was seen by more than 400 people, and advances the important Christian doctrine of the historical fact of Jesus’ resurrection.
