Resurrection - Undeniable

Since the very first Resurrection Day, stories have been fabricated to try to deny the Resurrection of Jesus Christ ever took place. Yet the evidence--Biblical and extra-biblical--is overwhelming: Jesus of Nazareth lived, was executed on a Roman cross in Jerusalem, and was buried in the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea.

The tomb remains empty. The body was never found. If it had been, it surely would have been paraded through the streets to quell all the "rumors" that began to circulate about His resurrection from the dead.

The risen Jesus then appeared to more than 500 people before ascending into heaven. None of the people who claim to have seen the risen Jesus ever recanted. Why would they do this, if they had known it was a lie??

Who would ever have heard of Jesus of Nazareth--all across the world for the next 2000 years--if He hadn't actually risen from the dead??
