Resurrection and Easter Faith

Need sermon material?
Preparing for Easter Sunday?
Need to understand the Resurrection better?

This 88-page study of the resurrection is designed for teachers and preachers -- to help you prepare messages on the Resurrection and lead classes and groups studying it.

First, we examine resurrection from its earliest mentions in the Old Testament to Jesus' teaching about resurrection. Then we look at the accounts in each of the four gospels to determine to the best of our ability exactly what took place that Easter morning. Next, we survey alternate explanations of the resurrection and discuss the strong facts of the resurrection which underlie our belief in Christ's physical resurrection from the dead. Then we explore the theological and practical implications of Christ's resurrection. Finally, we consider what the New Testament teaches about our own resurrection on the Last Day.

This study is by Dr. Ralph Wilson. He has more than 40 years pastoral experience and holds M.Div. and D.Min. degrees from Fuller Theological Seminary. He is the director of the JesusWalk^Ž Bible Study Series, offering a dozen free online Bible studies with thousands of online students from all over the world. More about the author.
