    The Resurrection The mythology of resurrection can be intriguing. Humans, for centuries, have tried to find hope and security in powers out of our control. The idea of pleasing and gaining relations with the mysterious powers that control the world around us has evolved over generations due to it being a natural instinct that we find the meaning to life. Despite the fact that many of these religious stories are similar, most were created at different times. Many of us emerge a belief in a life after death, thus creating the idea of a resurrection. When many of us think of religion, we immediately think of the story of Jesus, son of God. How many of us think about other religious figures, such as Osiris? Resurrection is one of the few things…

    This essay will demonstrate that the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is historically accurate. In 1 Corinthians 15, Paul states the “first importance” in Christianity is that Christ died for our sins, He was buried, He rose on the third day, and He appeared to 500+ people after his resurrection. If these things did not happen then Christianity would be false. The resurrection of Jesus is historically accurate and has proofs that back it up. This will be demonstrated by science,…

    It is finished. When Jesus spoke these words, he was speaking of the fulfillment of the scriptures, the inauguration of the Kingdom redemption, and the kick off to the new exodus. He was the perfect, sinless, blameless lamb crucified to absorb all evil, to wipe away the wrongdoing of human rebellion and confirm God’s signing of the new covenant. God’s ultimate rescue by sacrifice. His death represented the cleansing of the temple, defeating the kingdom of darkness, and taking our punishment of…

    The Old Testament announced beforehand the message of the resurrection, and this message is the mercy and the grace of YHWH to save us from our sins. The New Testament was written having the resurrection of Christ as the foundation of its message. The prophecies concerning the last days, which the prophet Joel wrote, would begin to be fulfilled at the resurrection. The resurrection shows Christ’s power over death, allowing us to have a new life, an eternal one, with God in His kingdom.…

    professions is the question of what happened to Jesus Christ. W ho is Jesus Christ and where is Jesus if his body is not in the tomb? The truth lies within the Christian faith, which is that Jesus is the Son of God and was resurrected. There are many who do not believe in the resurrection because there were no eye witnesses who saw what happened to Jesus Christ. Perhaps the most puzzling part of the entire event is that for the perpetuated story to have occurred in actuality, one would have to…

    Jesus' resurrection did not happened: Like the Pharisees, Jesus and Paul believe in the resurrection of the dead, while the Sadducees did not. Many times, Jesus told his disciples that he would rise again after three days, and as promised, he appeared in front of them, but in Mat (28.17), "They saw him and worshiped, and yet some doubted". In Marc (16.11), Mary Magdalene, the first witness, told them that Jesus was alive: "but they did not believe." Luke (24.37 to 41) says: “they felt fear,…

    During class, we had the discussion over the resurrection of Jesus and the facts to go along with it. Believing in the resurrection is easy because there were up to 500 eyewitnesses, there was a powerful movement with Jesus, many martyrs, and opponents could not produce a body (UCF Class Discussion, 11/3/16). In this case study, this person does not think people need to believe in the resurrection of Christ to be a Christian when I know very well that is false. There are six main topics that can…

    The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus within the four gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John have both similarities and differences when discussing the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus. I will be focusing on these commonalities and contrasts to explain how the execution and resurrection is interconnected with Christianity today. The first gospel Mark describes Jesus clothed in a purple cloak with a twisting thorn crown upon his head. The soldiers began saluting Jesus saying “Hail, King…
