Proving the Resurrection

A friend of mine wrote a thesis on proving the resurrection. You can download the file here.

I find this to be an excellent piece of work, with the references cited clearly. The points flow in such a way which proves the point that Christ's Resurrection is REAL!

Yes, some of you may say "hey, isn't he using the Bible to prove the Bible claim?"...However, the Bible has been proven time and time again to be real. I've already shown to you all how scientifically accurate the Bible is, and I will show you all in later posts that the Bible is real.

One of the points worth mentioning will be the conviction of the disciples. Their faith being so strong that they would even die for what they believe in. People may say "oh my gosh those guys are crazy...they must be lying!". It would've been very easy for Peter to deny Christ again like he did 3 times before. All 11 of the 12 disciples were killed for what they believed in. Now, do you think they're lying? If they were lying about Jesus being resurrected, they would've immediately said "Oh I was just joking!", but no!

Do note that when Peter was about to be crucified, he told the authorities that he was not worthy to die the way that Christ did, and so was crucified upside down. You see, he had so much faith in Jesus that his mind could be on bringing glory to God rather than escaping. If the resurrection was not real, do you think Peter could be able to do that?

Further implications of this: If the disciples died for something they believe in, then what about us? Will you be able to suffer the trials and tribulations of being a Christian for believing in the truth, let alone die for it? Think about it!

And my answer is an obvious yes! For those of you who know, something so small as to making this blog public may be very risky for me! I'm very sure that there is nothing wrong with this blog, but the world always remembers the small little bad things, and will seek to persecute us for it. However, this is all worth spreading the Word of God to everyone.

To God be the glory!
