Lesson #10 Questions

Jesus' resurrection is one of the key arguments for Christianity.

Even if Jesus did not resurrect, He is still the Son of God.

The Bible is a reliable source of evidence for Jesus' resurrection.

The evidence shows that maybe Jesus just went unconscious and later revived.

Since Jesus was laid in a new tomb, there is no doubt about whether or not His body was in the tomb.

Since Jesus' tomb was hewn out of a rock, the disciples could have entered through a secret entrance and stolen the body.

The Jewish leaders, by their insistence that Jesus' tomb be guarded and sealed actually took steps that make the resurrection more believable.

Peter and John immediately believed Mary Magdalene's story about the empty tomb.

The Jewish leaders did not believe the Roman soldiers when they told them what had happened at the tomb.

There is very little eyewitness testimony supporting Jesus' resurrection.

Jesus always showed Himself to one person at a time, so His appearances are hard to confirm.

The disciples never could tell if Jesus was a ghost or was in the flesh.

Jesus' body, voice, and mannerisms made him clearly recognizable to those He appeared to.

Jesus did miracles after His resurrection similar to what He did before His death.

The evidence shows that the witnesses to the resurrection just hallucinated.

The first preaching of the resurrection was done far from Jesus' tomb.

The treatment that the Jewish leaders gave the Christians to stop their preaching is evidence for the empty tomb.

It is reasonable to believe that thousands were willing to commit their lives, even to the point of suffering and death, to a cause they knew was a lie or a hoax.

It is reasonable to believe the disciples stole the body while the guards slept.

The disciples understood that Jesus would rise from the dead before it happened.

Both money and political influence had to be promised to the guards before they agreed to tell the "stolen body" story.

Saul's sudden conversion makes sense if he did not see Jesus on the road to Damascus.

Jesus' resurrection by itself is enough proof that He is the Son of God.

Faith in Jesus comes from the evidence we read in the Scriptures.

Jesus is your Lord and God.
