Best Answer
A:As a Christian you would agree with the historicity of Jesus' resurrection i) because it is a central teaching of Christianity, and ii) because not to do so would begin to call into doubt the reliabilty of the gospel records.

As a non-Christian you would not need to agree with the historicity of Jesus' resurrection for either of these reasons.

His death and resurrection.


Why does the road to Emmaus help Jesus' followers believe in his resurrection?

In the Gospel of Luke, 13 - 53, two disciples of Jesus met, spoke and ate with him after his crucifixion and resurrection, then told others about the event. Jesus' followers believed the witnesses and so more readily believe in the resurrection themselves.

What road did Jesus appear in?

Your question has two answers: Jesus appeared to two disciples on the road to Emmaus the day of His resurrection (Luke 24:13-15), and He appeared in spirit to Saul of Tarsus on the road to Damascus (Acts 9:3-5).


Who were the two men on the road after Jesus death?

The two men on the road after Jesus' death were Cleopas and another disciple, as mentioned in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 24:13-35). They were discussing the recent events surrounding Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection when Jesus appeared to them, though they did not recognize him at first.

Why did Mark not include post-resurrection appearances?

Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, when the young man explained that Jesus had risen, and the women fled in fear, telling no-one. The "Long Ending" (there was also, at one stage, a "Short Ending") was added much later.Mark's Gospel was the source gospel used by the authors of Matthew and Luke, for their information about the life and mission of Jesus, in addition to which they relied on the hypothetical 'Q' document for sayings attributed to Jesus. The 'Q' document says nothing about the crucifixion or resurrection of Jesus. Although the authors of Matthew and Luke knew nothing about the life and mission of Jesus, they each added information about the resurrection and the appearances of the risen Jesus to his apostles. And each gospel gave a different account than the other.Mark had not added post-resurrection accounts because he knew none. His gospel ended intriguingly at a point where the reader could imagine the consequences of the crucifixion and, perhaps, imagine what would happen next. Matthew had Jesus meet the two women on the road, while Luke had the risen Jesus meet two men on the road, so the "Long Ending" simply had Jesus appear to two of them, thus elegantly harmonising the two accounts of Matthewand Luke.


Did Saint Christopher believe in the resurrection of Jesus and eternal life?

Of course he did. These two points are basic beliefs of the Catholic Chrisitian faith. If he did not believe in these, he would not have been a Chrisitan.


Why is it that your two powerful images of Jesus seem to be just the ones in the beginning of his life and at the end?

Because these are the two most important things of Jesus' message - he was born into the world to save us and this he did by dying on the cross for our sins, and rising from the dead to give us all hope in the resurrection of the dead.
