Evidence for the Resurrection (Dr. William Lane Craig)

Dr. William Lane Craig shares the evidence we have for the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

I lived a very wretched life before I knew Jesus. But Jesus came into my life and he changed me and gave me peace that surpasses all understanding.

Finally, after many years of searching for truth, I have become a Christian. It just makes sense. The end.

I shared a presentation like this almost twenty years ago with a young man. After about an hour of discussing the evidence, he finally suggested (after trying all the other debunked arguments) that maybe aliens had stolen Jesus' body and then impersonated Him to start a world religion.

I've told people THAT story many, many times to illustrate two things: 1) the extent to which people will go in their irrationality to deny the clear facts of the resurrection of Jesus; and 2) how strong those facts must be to force people into such ludicrous positions.

Christ is risen!

A clear, reasoned, and concise argument for the historic resurrection of Christ! Truly enjoyed it. Thanks Dr. Craig!

I couldn't accept Christianity as the true word of God until I looked into the historical accountability of the resurrection of Jesus but I always had some sense or dare I say belief in a higher omniscient god and now this TRUE FACT that Jesus was resurrected by God on the third day, after he had died for our mortal sins, now stands as my foundation for my belief in the true god and the holy spirit, this is only the beginning and I have much to learn but I am grateful for this knowledge of the truth of Jesus 🙏

Dr Lane Crage you are an inspiration. Your messages touched my heart and mind. thank you !

[mariej]

Jesus, i know that you came to save me through your resurrection. When you rose from the dead i was set free. Thank you so much. Thank you so much for me and for the rest of the world. God wins not because He can make it be, yes He do make things happen, but because God is so good and true.

[ChristtheKing]

This teaching is deep and profound. I am convinced beyond every reasonable doubt that Jesus rose triumphantly on the third day and he's seated on the right hand side of God interceding for us. God bless you Dr Craig.

Thank God Dr. Craig! Keep sharing the Word of God! You are such a blessing to people in all walks of life.🙌🏼❤️😊😇🙏🏼☝🏼

[charmendro]

Please Pray for me because i am doubting :(

[Diego-be]

The theory of the twin brother of Jesus sound so ridiculous i think even if i were a skeptical i would think that theory so ridiculous. That only shows the desperate way to deny the evidence of resurrection of Jesus Christ.

[glisterrclips]

Jesus Christ is risen from the dead! Hallelujah!

[aidank]

Based on this evidence, the conclusion is undeniable; Jesus rose from the dead.

When Bill said being there made me miss my mom and dad he said it with so much sincerity that he made me miss my dad. Thankfully, as Christians we KNOW WE WILL SEE THEM AGAIN!!!

Thank you Dr. Craig. This is incredible the way you present the problems and the solutions to each. Wow I'm amazed by this.

25:08 "Jewish beliefs about the afterlife precluded anyone's rising from the dead to glory and immortality before the general resurrection at the end of the world."

WLC sounds very confident about that, but the gospels tell a different story. In several places, it is clear that belief in resurrection was pretty common at the time. King Herod, a practicing Jew, thought that Jesus was John the Baptist risen from the dead. (Mark 14:1-2) When Jesus asked his disciples what the people thought about him, his disciples reported that they likewise thought he was the resurrected John the Baptist or one of the prophets, possibly Elijah. (Mark 8:27-28) Finally, according to Mark, Jesus predicted his own death and resurrection 3 different times. (Mark 8:31-33 Mark 9:30-32 Mark 10:32-34) Similar passages appear in Luke and Matthew.

Now Craig is certainly familiar with all these passages, so why is he making pronouncements that fly in the face of them?
