The resurrection is the crux of everything — if Jesus rose from the dead, Christianity is true; if he didn't, it isn't. Watch how Nabeel works through this question with the same rigor he brought to everything else.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Nabeel engages what scholars call the 'minimal facts' approach to the resurrection — focusing on facts that are accepted by the vast majority of historians, including skeptics. What are these minimal facts, and why is this method a powerful tool in dialogue with non-Christians?
2.Islam teaches that Jesus was not crucified — that God made someone else appear as Jesus and Jesus was taken up to heaven. How does Nabeel's investigation of the historical evidence challenge this claim, and what sources does he draw on?
3.Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 15 that the risen Jesus appeared to more than five hundred people at once, most of whom were still alive when Paul wrote. Why is this kind of claim significant from a historical standpoint?
