Faith but not Blind Faith - Resurrection Evidences
Posted by jim.fitzpatrick • Monday, 2009-April-13
Here are seven evidences for the resurrection of Jesus:
1. The Empty Tomb
2. The inability of the Jewish authorities to ever produce the body of Jesus
3. More than 500 witnesses to the Living Jesus after His death
4. The existence and growth of the Christian church in and around Jerusalem right after the death of Jesus
5. The refusual of 10 out of 11 disciples to recant their belief in the resurrected Jesus- even though it cost them their life.
6. The change in the day of worship from Saturday to Sunday, the day Jesus arose.
7. The changed lives of the followers of Jesus - both then and now.
Christianity, like all religions requires faith. However, it is not blind faith - there is plenty of evidence for the resurrection which is the cornerstone of our faith. It is not a leap into the dark to embrace Christ, but rather a step into the light. Would you allow God to open your eyes and change your life?
