The Christian faith stands on the truth of Jesus rising from the dead. Without the resurrection, the message of the gospel would have no foundation, and faith would be empty. Christianity is not only a way of thinking, nor is Jesus remembered simply as a wise teacher. Believers confess him as the eternal Son of God who entered the world, took on human life, suffered, and died to bring forgiveness for sin.
Jesus himself promised that if his body was destroyed, he would bring it back to life in three days. No other person has ever broken the power of death in this way. His resurrection is not just a part of the story; it is the very core.
The statement is trustworthy: For if we died with Him, we will also live with Him;
2 Timothy 2:11
