20 Reasons Why I Believe in the Resurrection

from Encountering Classic Christian Literature · host Jonathan Wolters

present a multifaceted defense of the Christian doctrine of the resurrection, spanning both the Old and New Testaments. Scholars argue that the empty tomb and the post-death appearances of Jesus are well-established historical facts that lack a plausible natural explanation. Biblical texts highlight that Jesus specifically foretold his own demise and return to life, while early religious leaders allegedly attempted to cover up the event. Furthermore, the concept is shown to be deeply rooted in ancient Hebrew scripture, where figures like Job and David expressed confidence in a future life. Ultimately, the texts suggest that the Messiah’s victory over death serves as the essential foundation for the hope and restoration of all believers.
