• Dealing with Doubts - Why I Believe in the Resurrection, Part 2

  In this program, Chip tells us the integrity of the Christian message hinges on the resurrection of Jesus. He continues his look, that began in our previous program, at the proofs that Jesus is who He said He is…that He’s God, that He rose from the dead, and is alive today. Main Points Did Jesus really exist? Biblical manuscripts: quality and quantity 25,000 New Testament documents that authenticate the reality of Jesus Christ External verification: Josephus (Jewish historian), Pliny, Tacitus (Roman historians) What was Jesus really like? Friend and foe agree: great man, moral teacher Claimed sinless life = John 8:46 Affirmed by history and impact The works of Jesus went unchallenged. Fact of miracles, feeding 5000 not disputed Eyewitness accounts validated miracles Critics never claimed He didn’t perform miracles; they questioned His source of power to do them = Matthew 12:24 Who did Jesus actually claim to be? His own claim = John 14:6 God’s claim = Mark 9:7 His followers’ claim = Mark 8:27-30 His enemies’ claim = John 10:33 External sources’ claim – Pliny, AD 111 By fulfillment of over 700 Old Testament prophecies Did Jesus really die? At the time both friend and foe thought He died His flogging, beating, and crucifixion Medical evidence: water and blood indicate puncture of pericardium By burial preparation: 70 pounds of spices and linen His tomb was public and secure. Joseph of Arimathea’s tomb: a high-profile member of the Sanhedrin Roman guards Roman seal Size of tombstone: would take up to 25 men to roll away Penalty of death for guards sleeping Could Jesus’ resurrection possibly be true? Predicted by Old Testament prophets hundreds of years earlier Jesus predicted it openly and repeatedly Appeared to over 500 eyewitnesses in 12 different locations over 40 days Transformation of the disciples Conversion of Saul of Tarsus Transformation of Roman empire and the world Best legal minds: the evidence is conclusive! My testimony: “He changed my life.” What does this mean for you? It validates Jesus’ claim that He is the way, the truth, and the life. = John 14:6 It gives you absolute hope for the future. = John 14:19 It offers spiritual life right now! = John 3:16-17 If you believe Jesus rose from the dead, you have all the power you need to be a Christian who lives like a Christian by His grace.
