The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the undeniable centering point of Christianity, the defining doctrine of our faith, and the most audacious claim in the history of the world: a God-Man, sent from heaven, crucified in the most public way, dead and buried in a rich man’s tomb, which sepulcher was sealed with inscrutable security by the mighty military powers of the Roman Empire, and then—a dead man who called Himself Almighty God—lives. The corporal person of Jesus of Nazareth exists today. He is not buried. He lives in a resurrected physique. And even more astounding: because He lives, all who die with faith in Him will also rise body joined to soul.
~Dr. Michael A. Milton
林前 15:14 若基督沒有復活,我們所傳的便是枉然,你們所信的也是枉然;
「耶穌基督的複活」是基督教存在的根由,是我們信仰的基礎,也是世界歷史上從未有的事實:
從天堂派出的神人、以最公開的方式被釘死、死後被埋葬在一個有錢人的墳墓中,這個墳墓被羅馬帝國強大的軍事力量以難以理解的安全密封、這死而復活的人稱自己是全能的上帝。
拿撒勒人耶穌今天肉體仍就存在。祂沒有被埋葬。祂活在每一位信祂的人體中。更令人震驚的是:由於祂活著,所有因信祂而死的人也將身體復活。
