Text
The story of the the resurrection of Christ is recorded in each of the gospels. It can be found at Matthew 28, Mark 16, Luke 24 and John 20-21.
Old Testament
Theology of the resurrection
Teaching us that this is part of the gospel in 1 Corinthians 5:4, the Apostle Paul also taught that if the resurrection did not occur, then Christian preaching is useless, the faith of Christians is useless (1 Corinthians 15:14) and Christians are yet in their sins (1 Corinthians 15:17). Elsewhere Paul tells us that Christ's resurrection was involved in the justification of believers (Romans 4:25).
The belief that Jesus Christ was resurrected physically is vindicated by Christ's own words in Luke 24:39
- See my hands and my feet, that it is truly me. Touch me and see, for a spirit doesn't have flesh and bones, as you see that I have."
