How important is the issue of Jesus' Resurrection?

Question

wonderful answers from many partipants....let me analyze again to choose the best answer...many more answers are welcome.

Answer 1

Jesus' Resurrection is absolutely the most important event in human history. Nothing else even comes close. Without the Resurrection, we are all lost; lost in our sins. Without the Resurrection, our faith is futile. Without the Resurrection, the apostles were false witnesses. Without the Resurrection, all before us who put their faith in Christ have perished, and we also will perish. Without the Resurrection, there would be no hope for us beyond the grave. Without the Resurrection, we have bought into the greatest hoax to ever be inflicted upon the human race, and we believers are the most pitiful people on the face of the earth. Without the Resurrection, Jesus was just another Jew who died on a cross, and Christianity is a farce. There is nothing more pivotal to our faith than the Resurrection.

Answer 2

In a million Corinthians 15, Paul explains intimately the magnitude of the resurrection of Christ. some in Corinth did no longer have self belief in the resurrection of the lifeless, and by using this financial ruin Paul provides six disastrous outcomes if there have been no resurrection: a million) preaching Christ may well be mindless (v. 14); 2) faith in Christ may well be ineffective (v. 14); 3) each and all of the witnesses and preachers of the resurrection may well be liars (v. 15); 4) no person may well be redeemed from sin (v. 17); 5) all former believers might have perished (v.18); and six) Christians may well be the main pitiable human beings on earth (v. 19). yet Christ certainly has risen from the lifeless and “has grow to be the firstfruits of people who've fallen sleep” (v. 20), assuring that we are going to persist with Him in resurrection. The inspired observe of God ensures the believer's resurrection on the arriving of Jesus Christ for His physique (the Church) on the Rapture. Such desire and insurance subject concerns in a super song of triumph as Paul writes in a million Corinthians 15:fifty 5, "O demise, the place is thy sting? O grave the place is thy victory?" How do those concluding verses relate to the magnitude of the Resurrection? Paul solutions, "...you realize that your exertions isn't in ineffective" (v. fifty 8). He reminds us that by way of fact all of us understand we can be resurrected to new existence, we are in a position to go through persecution and possibility for Christ’s sake (vv. 29-31), only as He did, and only by way of fact the loads of martyrs by using historical past who gladly traded their earthly lives for eternal existence by employing means of the resurrection.

Answer 3

The Resurrection of Christ is the great importance. That is why 500 people witnessed his resurrection and testified to it even unto death them selfs. They were burned at the stake, feed alive to Lions, used as targets and worst. Not one recanted his or her claim. Jesus is the witness that sealed the covenate between God and all who believe in his name. The christ had to complete his task of overcomeing death and he did. He also had to raise from the pit of sheol and he did. He has to make a open showing of satan and he did. His death and resurrection are both fortold in the prophets. His suffering and his Glory were all fortold. Jesus is the reason we have a bible. The torah is the forshowing of the coming Glory that is coming the the Son of God. He the Christ is chosen of God to destroy the works of satan. So in effect this small part of God destroyed all that satan had tryed to do. Satan is defeated and shamed via a moral man. Yeat Jesus is also fully God.

Answer 4

I don't believe Jesus resurected from the dead.

I don't believe he is any more deity than you or I are.

I believe the young carpenter came to teach us how to live in peace and harmony with one another.

Are you aware that the only place where Jesus claimed to be the ONLY son of God is the third chapter of John?

Other places; he only called himself the son of man.

In John 10: 34-39 he called the Pharisees gods. We ARE gods. we are ALL the sons and daughters of God.

In John 14:12 Jesus said that we could do the works he did, and even greater works than he did.

In all sincerity; I believe the educated priests edited the scriptures to keep the uneducated peasants in the dark instead of claiming their birthright the Christ consciousness.

Even when Jesus gave the two great commandments to Phillip; he did NOT issue a third commandment to worship him as Deity.

Answer 5

Colossians 1:17....He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that he might become the one who is first in all things; 19 because [God] saw good for all fullness to dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile again to himself all [other] things by making peace through the blood [he shed] on the torture stake, no matter whether they are the things upon the earth or the things in the heavens.

Jesus is God's proof that all faithful to him will one day be resurrected if they die following his teachings. It means that we can live eternally too.

Answer 6

Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection from the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has been raised; and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith also is vain. Moreover we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we witnessed against God that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise if in fact the dead are not raised. For if the dead are not raised not even Christ has been raised; and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If we have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men most to be pitied. BUT NOW CHRIST HAS BEEN RAISED FROM THE DEAD, THE FIRST FRUITS OF THOSE WHO ARE ASLEEP (I Corinthians 15:12-20)

Answer 7

The FACT that Jesus arose from the dead is what gives His followers the faith to know that He is Lord and has saved us from our sins. He loves you too.
