The Resurrection is the central theme in every Christian sermon reported in the Acts...The first fact in the history of Christendom is a number of people who say that they have seen the Resurrection.
In many respects I find an unresurrected Jesus easier to accept. Easter makes him dangerous. Because of Easter I have to listen to his extravagant claims and can no longer pick and choose from his sayings. Moreover, Easter means he must be loose out there somewhere.

I am so glad he is loose out there, somewhere! He is in MY heart!
Thanks for these sayings...they started my day off right!
these were just what I needed. xxx
All anyone had to do in the 1st Century was to produce the body of Jesus and all of Christianity would have died out before it ever got started. Disprove the resurrection and you rule out Christ’s claim to have been raised from death. Even the Apostle Paul saw that one coming and dealt with it in 1Corinthians 15.
