QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:
PROOF OF THE RESURRECTION: Testimony of Changed Lives
How was Paul’s life radically changed after meeting Jesus?
How many disciples died a martyr’s death for following Jesus?
Would you follow someone faithfully if you thought they were living/teaching a lie?
Why did the people stop worshipping God on the Sabbath and change to the first day of the week?
New Testament Scholar NT Wright: “If it was only an empty tomb and there had been no sighting, people would have believed the body was stolen. If there were only eyewitnesses who claimed to see Jesus, but the tomb still had a body in it, then people would have believed the eyewitnesses were hallucinating… But only I all these were true – the empty tomb, eyewitness accounts, and changed lives – could Christianity ever have begun. Thus, the resurrection must have been true.”
Pastor and Author Tim Keller: “If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all that he said. If he didn’t rise from the dead, then why worry about any of what he said? The issue on which everything hangs is not whether or not you like his teachings, but whether or not he rose from the dead.”
Why does the Resurrection of Jesus matter? Why must we all accept his words? (John 14:6; John 11:25-26)
