During the 2000 years of Christian history, all kinds of heresies have tried to understand the truth and uniqueness of Christianity.
They continued to instigate and destroy, but the only thing that Christianity has
Because of sex, a third of the world's population became Christians.
Most of the Christian heresies are Christian cults. Yes
For example, heresy denying the humanity of Jesus or denying the divinity
There are also heretics who deny the virgin birth and deny the resurrection.
There is.
Religious pluralists believe that there is salvation even if you do not believe in Esu and believe in other things.
Others say that salvation is possible through Buddhism or Confucianism.
However, the Bible says that the only way to salvation is through Jesus.
It proves that Jesus Christ, who died on his own, has risen from the dead.
I did.
If you do not believe in the resurrection of Jesus, Christianity cannot exist, and neither faith nor sexuality.
It does not rip. We testify of the resurrection of Jesus Christ in the text.
can find evidence.
In Deuteronomy 19:15, we read that we are trying to testify whether an event is true or not.
Otherwise, there should have been 2-3 witnesses. In other words, the proof of fact is 2-3 people
If it is a witness, it is established.
However, there are numerous evidences and witnesses for the resurrection of Jesus. That
The evidence for the resurrection of Christ is so abundant and certain. a few proofs
Let's take a look
1. The book of Acts testifies.
In Acts 1:1, the person who received the book of Acts was called [Theophilus].
All. Theophilus was then a high-ranking official of the Roman government. who is who
The Gospel and Acts were written and sent to Theophilus. the reason jesus
It was because he wanted to tell the truth about the resurrection of Christ and his life.
All.
According to a legend, Theophilus was a Roman dignitary and
welcomed him and led a devout life of faith with his daughter, Domitilla.
It is said that he was martyred during the reign of Emperor Domisian in AD 96.
Acts is an official document sent to [Theophilus], a Roman dignitary at the time.
and Christian apologetics. How to provide false evidence in official documents and apologetics
Can you write it down?
If the book of Acts sent by Luke at that time was full of lies, Theophilus
How could you believe in Jesus?

you will see what happens.
In the case of the Acts of the Apostles, if there was any perjury or error, then of course at the time
I must have been harshly criticized and evaluated by countless critics.
All.
However, for 2,000 years of Christianity, the canon and legitimacy of the Acts of the Apostles has not been shaken.
It explains the history of the early church without noticing the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
that is testifying.
2. The risen Lord Himself appeared and showed it.
In 1 Corinthians 15:4-8, we read, “They were buried, and then three days later, according to the scriptures,
He rose from the dead and appeared to Cephas 9 Peter) and to the twelve, he
He appeared to more than 500 brothers, then to James, and after that, she was not fully pregnant.
He has also been seen by me, who is like me.”
According to Carr, the resurrected Jesus appears to the people.
Here's the order I've shown myself:
(1) Mary Magdalene and another woman (Matthew 28:9)
(2) To Peter (Luke 24:34, 1 Corinthians 15:5).
(3) To Clopas and the other disciples (Luke 24:13-35).
(4) To the disciples in the absence of Thomas (Mark 16:14, Luke 24:36, John 20:19).
(5) Thomas with the eleven disciples (Jal. 20:26).
(6) To the seven disciples at the sea of Tiberias (John 21:1-24).
(7) To the eleven disciples on the mountain of Galilee (Matt. 28:16).
(8) to over 500 brothers (1 Corinthians 15:6).
(9) To James the brother of the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:7).
(10) To the eleven disciples near Jerusalem.. (Mark 16:19, Luke 24:50, Acts)
1:3-12; 1 Corinthians 15:7).
He appeared more than ten times, and about 600 people showed up.
As I said before, in the case of the Old Testament, the factual evidence needs only 2-3 witnesses.
All. However, the Lord continues to make many sacrifices to testify of His resurrection.
He showed himself to people and people. What more evidence do you need?
would you like
In verse 3 of the text, we read, “By many convincing proofs, he himself manifested his life for forty dong.
You do not see us.”
In terms of time, he was in the world for 40 days and showed himself to be resurrected.
you said You have given me very clear evidence.
3. The 2,000-year history of Christianity and the blood of martyrs testify.
Christian history is the history of Jesus.
French philosopher Auguste Comte and English poet Thomas Carlisle
Carlyle) was meeting one day and talking. Philosopher Comte
said proudly. 'I am now a complete person who can replace Christianity.
I'm thinking of creating a religion. The new religion is Christianity
It is perfect because it will exclude the childish and mysterious stories of
And it will be clear."
Carlyle, who was listening, answered. "It's good to create a new religion.
But before that, there is something you need to do. it's like an esu
God will die and then rise again after 3 days. so you only
Because the religion we want to adopt will become a living religion.”
Christianity is a religion of resurrection and life. Because of its power, for two thousand years
Christianity could exist and grow. and can count
Those who had no faith shed the blood of martyrdom.
British physicist Oliver J. Rodge, University of Birmingham
is the founder of His son was killed in the war during World War I.
I did. However, in a letter to his father before his death, the son said:
There was the same verse.
'Father, even if I die, don't come to my grave. i won't be there
Shall I?"
Augustine's mother, Monica, once said to her son, 'I will die.
Please don't worry about any issues and bury it anywhere.
I will go to God,” he said.
The life of Christians who believe in the resurrection is proud and comfortable. cause is death
Because you have a faith that goes beyond that.
Ancient Rome crucified Jesus and persecuted Christianity for 300 years.
All. They tried to eradicate Christianity by all means and methods.
All.
He drove them into the valleys where leprosy was rampant, and threw them into the lions' den.
All. Then they threw it into the fire and hit it with a knife. But in the end the game
It ended in a Christian victory. Jesus defeated Rome.
Life is strong. The resurrection life of Jesus works in us today.
The resurrection of Christ is historical evidence and eloquence.
Jesus is alive again. The empty tomb and the 2,000-year history of Christianity, the Bible and the number
Many witnesses testify to that fact. The important thing is that the witness
that you have to say. In other words, those who have faith in the resurrection
We must testify to the resurrection.
The reason why the book of Acts was written is also who Jesus was, how he died, and everything.
This is to prove that you are alive.

How grateful are you?
Second, thank you for belonging to a healthy denomination, a healthy church.
Pastors and members belonging to cults or cults are unhappy. That
If the group is wrong, even the members of the church cannot face it.
Third, I was grateful that I was preaching the risen Jesus. Again
How painful it must be to perjure the dead Jesus that he has risen from the dead.
Would you like it? However, living by preaching the risen Jesus is not something to be proud of.
You can not.
Fourth, I was grateful to live under the protection of the risen Lord.
On my way home from the meeting, I heard a strange noise from a garbage truck on the street.
I've been hearing things.
I stopped walking and approached the cleaning car just before the compaction work. For sure
It was a moan, a cry. Upon closer inspection, it was found inside the garbage bag.
Lee was the voice.
