for one reason: faith in GOD!
The Bible has many prophecies; if you looked at them, you would see that all of them have either come true or are going to come true or being fulfilled right NOW! i say this because the bible is true: what is says is going to happen, happens and what it says happened, really happened. the bible said that Jesus died on the cross and there were witnesses that later went to share what they saw. IT ALL HAPPENED SO WHY NOT BELIEVE
In addition to the above the New Testament was largely written by either eyewitness or those who knew them. The accounts are not 'cunningly devised fables' such as the theory of evolution, which contradicts proven scientific laws. In any case, even non-Christian historians attest to the fact of Jesus' horrible death. What it means is another thing, as is the resurrection. Supposed contradictions in the accounts are merely different perspectives or a focus on different details.

There are differing answers to this question depending upon who you ask. Some do not believe any part of the cross has been found. Indeed, many debate whether Jesus died on a Cross or a tree/stake.

Many credit her with finding a piece of the original Cross.

Do Catholics believe Jesus rose from the dead?
Yes! Catholics believe that Jesus resurrected. Catholics wear a crucifix or have one in their homes to remind themselves that Jesus died for our sins. They often look to Christ crucified when they are troubled and realize that their cross is much lighter to carry compared to the cross Jesus died on. Yes, in fact, that's why they sometimes keep Christ on the cross-necklaces. This is because they believe he was simply a prophet, not the Messiah himself. The more typical Catholics do this just because they believe his death is more important than his resurrection; although some do exist that deny that he still lives. Q.) How do I know? A.) I grew up in Ethiopia where there are many Catholics and Orthodoxes. Is that what they told you? You should get your "facts" straight, rather than writing nonsense on this site. All Catholics believe that Jesus is God our Savior!
