The Surprising Rebirth Of Belief In God

NOTE

Historical Evidence of Eyewitness Testimonies to the Resurrection

Eyewitness testimonies play a crucial role in the historical evidence of the resurrection. The firsthand nature of these testimonies, such as John's Gospel written by an eyewitness, lends credibility. Furthermore, the early documentation of these accounts, some composed within months of the events, adds weight to their authenticity. This contrasts with the lengthy period it took for biographies of Emperor Tiberius to emerge. The sincerity of the evidence is another key factor, as people claimed to be eyewitnesses in good faith. These factors collectively contribute to the serious consideration given to the resurrection by both religious and secular scholars.
