Apostles Help Prove Resurrection of Jesus

The Apostle's add proof to the resurrection of Jesus!

If the Resurrection of Jesus Christ was a lie, how could all of the apostles go to an early grave saying that He was raised from the dead! According to Church history and tradition, all of them died the death of a martyr.

Matthew was thrust through with a sword in distant Ethiopia.

Mark died in Alexandria after being cruelly dragged through the streets of that city.

Luke was hanged on an olive tree in Greece.

Peter was crucified upside down in Rome.

James, the Greater, was beheaded at Jerusalem.

James, the Less, was thrown from a high place off of the Temple, then beaten with a club.

Andrew was bound to a cross, where he preached to his persecutors until he died.

Thomas was run through the body with a lance in the East Indies.

Jude was shot to death with arrows.

John was put in a caldron of boiling oil, but the oil mysteriously would not boil. Afterward, he was banished to Patmos.

If their lives would have been spared, don't you think at least one of them would have suddenly exposed such a lie? Of course he would have! But they did not expose it because it was not a lie-it was true!

Jesus' enemies would not have stolen His body because His Resurrection was the very thing they were trying to prevent. It would have defeated their own purposes to do so. If they had taken it, they would have produced it to prove that He was no longer alive.
