Historical Evidence Jesus is ALIVE

Christianity‌ ‌differs ‌from‌ ‌other‌ ‌religions‌ ‌because‌ ‌it's‌ ‌based‌ ‌on‌ ‌a‌ historical‌ ‌claim of a public miracle.‌ ‌The‌ ‌apostle‌ ‌Paul‌ ‌says‌ ‌that‌ ‌if‌ ‌Christ‌ ‌hasn't‌ ‌risen‌ ‌from‌ ‌the‌ ‌dead, the‌ ‌Christian‌ ‌faith‌ ‌is‌ ‌worthless.‌ ‌ Since ‌the‌ ‌resurrection‌ ‌is‌ ‌a‌ ‌historical‌ ‌claim,‌ ‌then‌ ‌it's‌ ‌subject‌ ‌to‌ ‌historical‌ ‌investigation.‌ ‌And‌ ‌to‌ ‌argue‌ ‌for‌ ‌a‌ ‌historical‌ ‌claim,‌ ‌we‌ ‌need‌ ‌to‌ ‌do‌ ‌a‌ ‌couple‌ ‌of‌ ‌things.‌ ‌
‌
To start,‌ ‌we‌ ‌need‌ ‌to‌ ‌survey‌ ‌the‌ ‌relevant‌ ‌facts.‌ ‌Then‌ ‌we‌ ‌need‌ ‌to‌ ‌examine‌ ‌competing‌ ‌explanations‌ ‌of‌ ‌those‌ ‌facts.‌
