Can We Believe the Resurrection of Jesus?

Can we believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Savior of the world, God in the flesh?

In other words, most scholars and historians agree with the Bible that there was a man named Jesus, whose parents where Joseph and Mary, and lived in Palestine in the 1st Century AD. But when you ask those same historians if they believe that Jesus was who he claimed to be in the Bible, you will get many different answers.

The answer to the question, "Can we believe that Jesus is God?" stems around one event—the Resurrection.

If Jesus really did raise from the dead, we must believe what he claimed—that he is God, but if the resurrection was a hoax or a myth, no one should be a Christian.
