The Historical Evidence for the Resurrection of Christ that Even the Skeptics Believe

Dr. Gary Habermas is a leading authority on defending the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Every year he amazes and convinces many of the historicity of Christ’s resurrection from a biblical, theological, and evidential perspective through his speaking, conferences, and books.

I first heard of Dr. Habermas a few years ago at an apologetics conference an was blown away by what he shared.

Here are three videos of Dr. Habermas describing the evidence of the resurrection from several different angles and his apologetics approach.

Even though the last video is long (about an hour long + Q&A), I encourage you to watch it. You will be amazed, but shouldn’t be surprised:

For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. (1 Corinthians 15:3-5 ESV)

If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied. But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. (1 Corinthians 15:19-20 ESV)
