Study Notes

The Resurrection and Ascension

T. T. Wright, a New Testament scholar and Anglican bishop, calls the resurrection of Jesus Christ the turning point of world history.
Pope St. John Paul II, in his encyclical, states that Christ, in his Passion and crucifixion, did not obtain human mercy but revealed God’s love in the Resurrection.
The four Gospels offer different accounts of the Resurrection and post-resurrection events.
If Christians fabricated a story of Christ rising from the dead, they would have tried to minimize differences in the accounts; however, the Gospels are compelling evidence of Jesus's resurrection.
