“Jesus’ resurrection has more eyewitness evidence to support it than any other event in ancient times—more evidence than the military victories of Julius Caesar or the first Olympic games or the death of Alexander the Great, enough evidence to convince thousands of skeptics over the centuries and millions of seekers. Jesus died as the result of a brutal execution on the cross, but death could not hold Him. He rose alive and stands alive in heaven today—our conquering King.”
