John 5:28-29 Do not be amazed at this, because a time is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and will come out - the ones who have done what is good to the resurrection resulting in life, and the ones who have done what is evil to the resurrection resulting in condemnation.
John 20:24-29 Now Thomas (called Didymus),one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he replied, "Unless I see the wounds from the nails in his hands, and put my finger into the wounds from the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it!" Eight days later the disciples were again together in the house, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here, and examine my hands. Extend your hand and put it into my side. Do not continue in your unbelief, but believe." Thomas replied to him, "My Lord and my God!" Jesus said to him, "Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are the people who have not seen and yet have believed."
Jesus was in Paradise. Remember on the cross He turned to the thief on the right and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise. See Luke 23:43.
Today, many Bible students point to the 1st Pentecost after the Resurrection on Sunday (50 days after the Saturday resurrection) 17 June 31 AD.
Yes. There are several places throughout the Bible where physical ressurection is mentioned. In the New Testament, especially in the Revelation, it is mentioned that there will be a physical resurrection.
The resurrection of Jesus is the basis for Christianity; without it Christianity would not exist in its present form, if at all. So the resurrection is just as important today as it ever was.
The reason why people remember Jesus, the reason why there is easter, His death and resurrection is the purpose of his birth that is why there is Christmas. He died to set the captive free and rose again to give life to the dead.

Christians remember the resurrection of Jesus on Easter Sunday, which signifies his victory over death and the fulfillment of his mission to save humanity. Easter is the holiest day in the Christian calendar and is celebrated with joy and hope as a symbol of new life and faith.
People today remember and celebrate events of the past because they are thankful for whatever happened that caused the event.
God's ChoiceGod really didn't choose Easter Sunday to rise on. Easter Sunday is a day that was chosen to remember Jesus' resurrection. It doesn't necessarily mean that it is the exact day that coincides with His earthy resurrection.
One must remember that many of the bible accounts of the resurrection of Christ were written well after the event, causing the writers of the gospels to write what they saw or were told of the event. The book of Luke contains one of the most accurate accounts of the resurrection. One must remember that not all of the gospels can give an accurate account of Christ resurrection. Let it suffice that the authors did the best they could about the event. All of the gospels cumulate in this actual event.
He's amazing!
