RESURRECTION
PROOF

Topics: Jesus Christ; Resurrection

Reference: Acts 1:3

Science says that if there is any such thing as infallible proof, it is the repetition of the same experiment.

Experiment 1: Jesus rose from the dead, and Mary Magdalene encountered him.

Experiment 2: The women encountered the risen Christ.

Experiment 3: The disciples encountered Christ.

Experiment 4: The apostles encountered him.

Experiment 5: Christ was seen by five hundred people.

Each appearance of the risen Christ is the repetition of the same experiment. They all encountered the same phenomenon: Jesus, who died, was now alive! That’s what changed the history of the world.

—Walter Martin and Jill Martin Rische, Through the Windows of Heaven (Broadman & Holman, 1999)
