===Text===[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Anderson_(missionary) Sir Norman Anderson,] O.B.E., Q.C., LL.D., F.B.A., [http://www.biblicalstudies.org.uk/article_resurrection_anderson.html "The Evidence for the Resurrection", IVP, 1950.]: Paul, in the fifteenth chapter of his Epistle to the Corinthians, gives a detailed list of several resurrection appearances. Now there is scarcely a scholar who has doubted the genuineness of 1 Corinthians, and its date is generally accepted as about 56 A.D. But the apostle writes that he had not only previously given his readers this information orally (i.e., in 49 A.D.), but had himself 'received' it, presumably from those who were apostles before him. This may take us back to 40 A.D. or to within some ten years of the crucifixion.... Paul tells us that in 56 A.D. the majority of some 500 original witnesses were still alive....
The story : It may indeed be objected by some critic that a resurrection from the dead is so incredible that no amount of the evidence would suffice. Such an attitude seems prejudiced and unscientific, but let that pass. Let us assume that the resurrection of Christ an ordinary man is recorded in each indeed incredible. But such a line of reasoning cannot apply to the gospelsOne whom we are considering. He was unique in all He did; in all He said; in all He was. It can be found Whichever way one looks at [[Matthew 28]]Him, [[Mark 16]]He is in a class by Himself. Even apart from the resurrection, [[Luke 24]] there are excellent and [[John (WEB)#Chapter 20|John 20-21]]convincing reasons for believing that He was 'God manifest in the flesh'. Is it, then, so incredible that such a One should rise from the dead? It would have been far more incredible if He had not. The text below It is taken from Mark 16, indeed, the profoundest of mysteries that He should ever have died 'for us men and for our salvation': but, having died, it is no mystery that He should have risen.<p><br>
