I believe that Jesus was a Carpenter that was out in the sun a little too long (40 days in the desert without water). And as for resurrection, I'm atheist and it's pretty easy to disprove God's existence.

Yes I believe in Jesus Christ and the Resurrection.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

There are many beliefs in the resurrection of Christ. Some believed that it is a physical resurrection, while others believed that it is a spiritual resurrection. Some early Christians believed that Christ is fully divine, while some believed that he is just a mortal teacher. This debate continued until the reign of Emperor Constantine of the Byzantine Empire. Constantine held a council to discuss the nature of Christ. After the council of Nicaea, everyone agreed that Christ's resurrection is physical and he was both human and divine.

Absolutely, I do.
John the Baptist proclaimed the Messiah. He baptized the Creator of the universe. He saw a dove descend upon Jesus. He heard God's voice like thunder announce, "This is My beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased." (Matth. 3:17)
John saw the heavens open.
Every Word recorded in the bible is ours. All we have to do is believe. You want a sign? Start with Genesis- God created the heavens and the earth. Go all the way to Revelation - the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. It begins and ends with Jesus. God in flesh lived among us. Born of a virgin, Sinless. He defeated principalities and powers, making a show of them openly. He is the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the Rose of Sharon, Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star. If after all that, you still want a sign, remember the sign that will endure through all eternity .. the sign of the cross.

No!
Because Jesus was invented for the trick of the crucifixion of two thieves by the Roman Governor and the two thieves were left on their crosses to be duly crucified, but the Christ was a free man long before the flogging of the thieves began.
There is no resurrection in the Gospels only talk of a missing "it", which was part of the great hoax, as only 100 lbs of aloes and myrrh were used to fake a burial and the Jews found it the following day and kicked it aside in the tomb to separate the two linens, one for the head and one for the body, as Peter discovered when he went to the tomb.
The disciples describe crucifixion and resurrection as "Idle tales" in Luke's.
Peace!

Yes, because of the work of redemption by Jesus Christ - His virgin birth, atoning death, burial, and resurrection - is complete and prefect. Salvation (new birth) must be preceded by sincere repentance toward God and faith in Christ as risen Savior and
there will be a resurrection of the just and the unjust - the one to eternal life, other to eternal damnation.

Absolutely, because he arose from the dead. 11 of the 12 disciples died because of this, and there were over 200 witnesses to his ressurection.
