why do christians believe that jesus was resurrected?

Question

it seems scientifically impossible for him to be risen because for that he should have traveled in space and theres no air in space and where did he go after he traveled pass pluto?if God made the world,each and every thing around us, and each and everything makes sense then why would things like resurrection etc happen that does not make sense.

Answer 1

You are talking about the Ascension, not the Resurrection. But that is a good question - if Jesus was a physical being, where did he go? Heaven is generally thought to be a trans-physical location. According to the Bible, Jesus did not just float away into space. He ascended into the air, and then disappeared into a cloud.

Answer 2

The idea of resurrection is the important thing here, not where did Jesus go when he floated into space. It's less about science, more about what does a resurrection mean.

Christianity preaches that if you repent and believe in Jesus, you will be granted everlasting life in heaven. Resurrection is an important theme because it demonstrates that Jesus, and through him God, have power over human life and death. If Jesus has that power, than he indeed has the power to be the savior who can offer mortals the same everlasting life in heaven.

I suggest you look at my source link for more info, a good objective look at the idea of death and resurrection.

Answer 3

When Christ was on the cross, and He said "My God, my God, why has thou forsaken me?" - It was not that He was asking why nobody was coming to save him, Jesus never, ever addressed the Father as God - always as "Father". So then, what was he doing? He was reciting Psalm 22 as a teaching to you and I - Psalm 22 was written about 1000 years before the day of the crucifiction, yet it told every part of the event, right down to what the soldiers would be doing while He was on the cross.\
Every single thing and word that Jesus did or said was a teaching, and the time on the cross was no exception. Theres nobody I know of who can't predict the future with plain words and total acuracy - in detail, not vague - 1000 years before the fact. Thats a good reason to believe, just to name one.

Answer 4

When Jesus resurrected He was in a glorified body in spirit, but he show Himself as flesh to prove to his deciple and to those around Him of who He is and that all power was given onto Him . Plus there where 500 witness that saw Him afterwards,before He was taken up to heaven.

Answer 5

Everything does not make sense. Look at just Chemistry, for example. Electrons used to be just a sphere, then they had the "plum pudding" example, then the orbitals, and now the electron cloud diagram. I don't think that humans will ever fully understand science.

Answer 6

Scientifically impossible, but with God, ALL things are possible. He is the Son of God, currently seated at the right hand of the Father, and is coming soon to take His believers to Heaven to be with Him.

Answer 7

Personally, I'm not much into pain, and couldn't imagine dying a horrible, painful death just to spread a lie like all the disciples did. If it wasn't true, they wouldn't have let themselves be murdered in the terrible ways they were just to spread it. People are much more likely to die for truth than something they made up.

Answer 8

Blind faith in a book that was written when all possible eyewitnesses have been dead fro many generations.

None of the gospel books were written by the people to whom they have been attributed.

Answer 9

Paul's testimony from 1Corinthians 15

Answer 10

Eyewitness accounts. Evidence. St. Thomas the Doubter, who saw with his own eyes.
