Theology
What is the resurrection?
Published Reviewed
The resurrection is Jesus' bodily rising from the dead on the third day after crucifixion—the foundation of Christian faith. Without it, faith is futile (1 Corinthians 15:17). It proves Jesus' divinity, validates His sacrifice, and guarantees our future resurrection. We too will be raised with transformed, immortal bodies.
Why this answer? It starts with 1 Corinthians 15:17, then cross-checks Romans 6:4-5 and John 11:25 so the summary stays anchored in Scripture.
