Answer 3

Krishna also was resurrected, I think a couple thousand years before the story of Jesus. (Krishna is a figure in Hindu mythology, very similar to Jesus' role in Christian mythology.)

The stories of Krishna and Jesus have many similarities, including a virgin birth, death and resurrection, and performing various miracles. I forget what else.

I recommend books by Paramahansa Yogananda (most well known one is "Autobiography of a Yogi") for more information. Or any good book on Hinduism, although these may not as readily draw the parallels you are looking for.

Answer 4

According to the word of God.Jesus raised three people from the dead during his ministry on earth.God was Jesus in the flesh and was resurrected from the dead on the third after his death.According to the word of God their are no other god-men.

Answer 5

No, because in the Word of God, it says in the book of John chapter 1 verse 1- 4 , that , "In the begining was the word and the word was with God, and the word was God. The same was in the beggining with God. All things were made by him, and was not anything made that was made. In him was life and the life was the light of men. what verse four means is, God the Almighty shed his light on all of mankind, and no one can surpass his awsomeness, no one created, or any idol, can do wut Jesus did, Jesus is the only one who rose from the dead, no one dead now can rise from the dead. Because God is the all powerfull he can do whatever he wants, and he did, he created the earth, he created man in the earth, and he created the animals that run wild in the earth. God is the creator and sustainur of all things, even the very breath that u breath that u breath. God loves u sir madam , whoever u may be, God wants u to believe in him, so that way when u die, u will go to heaven, and have everlasting life. Heaven is a spiritual relm where God and his angels reside until he comes back for those that believe in him. and for those that died, and for those that will die and not accept Jesus Christ as their savior will go to hell. Now heaven is the most perfect place you could ever be. Hell on the other hand is te worst, hell is the place of eternal damnnation, it is a never ending pit of fire and the devil and his demons are wating for those who do not believe. I pray that if u r not saved u will accept Jesus as your savior, as your king, and as ruler over you life. if you say and believe these words: Lord Jesus, i am a sinner, i believe u died and rose again for my sins, and i accept you as my personal Lord and Savior, and you may be wondering why u should say all of these things, but when Jesus comes back he is only coming back for those that said and believe those words i just wrote. the main thing is u must believe, and live a life according to God's plan and purpose, and good works will not get you into heaven. the only thing that will is faith in Jesus, and his power, he could take your life any minute, and no one knows when they are going to die, and i pray before u die, that u accept Jesus as your Savior, accept him as the ruler over your Life, and accept him as King. He is the Almighty, Trust in the lord. Believe in him.

Answer 6

Yes. He did raise Lazarus, so you could say that Lazarus was also blessed by resurrection.

What's cool is that Jesus did not preach a religion or philosophy, but Himself. He not only showed the way but became the way, and to make it even more believable He proved it.

The central theme of Christianity is not so much the birth of Jesus (Christmas) nor the death (crucifixion and the cross) but the Resurrection - the power of God to save and restore humanity from it's curse. Who could have thought of a better plan and drama than God?

Answer 7

No, it is not unique to Jesus. In fact the Jesus story closely resembles other gods such as Mithra's and others. These stories were around before Jesus.

Answer 8

I don't know of for certain, but I wouldn't be surprised if there had been other people in other cultures said to have come back to life. From what I've read, there were stories such as in the bible that were used by other races before the jewish people used them, such as the story of the flood. There are different people back then that had their own story of a flood with their own special man who survived it.

Answer 9

Lord Krishna is one of the Gods worshipped by us Hindus and yes he was resurrected.

Answer 10

Lazarus

Answer 11

according to the bible their were only two men that rose from the dead and that was Lazarus and Jesus. so far these are the only two I have read about.
