Jesus Christ:  Super-Nut? or Super-Natural!

 

The proof Jesus was God -- the Resurrection

When asked for a sign that He was truly the Messiah, Jesus said He would give them one sign--the sign of Jonah.  For as Jonah was in the belly of the fish for 3 days and 3 nights, so would He be in the earth and then raised again by the power of the Father.  That would vindicate Him and everything He had said.

So did Jesus raise from the dead?  That is the million dollar question.  

If Jesus was raised from the dead, then He was God and we have no need for any other gods.  Jesus would deserve our praise and worship.

If Jesus did not come out of the grave, then He was an imposter and a liar.  Nothing He said can be trusted and we are better off looking to someone else to worship.

So now the journey to answer this question begins:  Did Jesus come out of the tomb on the third day as He said he would?
