What is Truth?

Apr 20, 2025    Pastor Daniel Maloy

The truth of Christianity rests on solid historical foundations, particularly the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Over 300 fulfilled prophecies, extensive archaeological evidence, and multiple independent eyewitness testimonies validate the biblical accounts. Mary Magdalene's role as the first witness to the risen Christ, along with over 500 others who saw Jesus alive after His death over a 40-day period, provides compelling evidence for this transformative event. Common objections to the resurrection have been thoroughly addressed. The Roman expertise in execution eliminates the possibility that Jesus survived crucifixion. The presence of guards and a sealed tomb renders the theory that disciples stole the body implausible. The consistent testimony of hundreds of witnesses across different times and locations rules out mass hallucination or conspiracy theories. The resurrection proves Jesus's divine nature, demonstrates His power over death, and offers the hope of eternal life to all who believe. This truth demands a personal response and challenges believers to share this hope with others who need to hear it.
