Did the Resurrection of Jesus Really Happen? Michael Edwards

And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. 1 Cor 5:14 ESV


Some of the strongest evidence we have seen for the resurrection is the willingness of the original disciples and the apostle Paul to die for their testimony that Jesus rose from the dead. We also have the non-Christian writings that support the resurrection. Now we will review a consensus of 1,400 scholars.

The minimal facts approach to the resurrection was originated by biblical scholar Gary Habermas (garyhabermas.com). It is based on his research of 1,400 in-depth scholarly writings regarding the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus. Dr. Habermas relies only on those facts supported by multiple sources and accepted by the vast majority of scholars. The facts below, except number four, are accepted by 95 to 100 percent of the 1,400 scholars. Number four is accepted by about 75 percent:

1. Jesus died by crucifixion.
2. He was buried.
3. His death caused the disciples to despair and to lose hope.
4. The tomb where he had been buried was found empty.
5. The disciples had experiences which they believed were literal appearances of the risen Jesus.
6. The disciples were changed from doubters to bold witnesses.
7. The resurrection was the central message.
8. They preached the message of Jesus’ resurrection in Jerusalem.
9. The Church was born and grew.
10. Orthodox Jews who believed in Christ made Sunday their primary day of worship.
11. James converted to the faith when he saw the resurrected Jesus (James was a known skeptic).
12. Paul converted to the faith (he was an enemy and skeptic). 

The fact that such a large percentage of scholars accepts these twelve points is quite compelling. One thing is certain—Jesus really existed. When it comes to number four, the empty tomb…
