The resurrection changed everything. When the disciples went to the tomb they found it empty. This Biblical recorded event, while not expected by most, was declared by Jesus before it happen.
What are the things that make the resurrection real in my life.
1. Just like salvation it is a faith issue. Without faith it is impossible to please God(Heb 11)
2. The Bible is truth. Everything the Bible records is reliable.
3. I don't believe that the early Christians (especially the Apostles) would give up there lives for a lie. They saw the resurrected Savior alive after seeing Him crucified, die and buried.
4. Christianity continues to grow even 2000 + years after the resurrection.
5. People testify to the the life changing power of the risen Lord.
6. The Presence of the risen Lord can be felt.
7. He personal has changed my life through putting my trust in Him.
