Overview

He is risen indeed! Here are the best reasons why it’s true!

Culture is doing its best to convince the world there is nothing special about Jesus. And many Christians never get beyond a Sunday school understanding of their own faith. As a result, Christianity’s most important historical fact--the resurrection--is often the most misunderstood, relegated to Easter and funeral services, creating a powerless Christianity.

In Body of Proof, acclaimed apologist and scholar Dr. Jeremiah Johnston sets out to show why Jesus’ victory over death is central to a believer’s faith. Straightforward, accessible, and practical, this book

  • examines the latest archaeological and textual findings
  • presents seven tangible, fresh reasons to believe Jesus really rose from the dead
  • explains why it matters today as the foundation of our hope in the face of suffering and grief
  • When you fully understand the implications of the resurrection, you will begin to understand the power of Christ in you. This changes everything.

    ‘I am the resurrection and the life.’ These words of Jesus in the Gospel of John show that resurrection is not ancillary to Christian faith, nor an optional extra that can be selected or omitted. In this insightful book, Jeremiah Johnston demonstrates both why resurrection remains core to authentic Christian faith and why it’s reasonable to believe in the bodily resurrection of Jesus. He marshals evidence and arguments that some readers may not have previously encountered. In the process, he carefully explains not only the centrality of resurrection faith for Christianity, but also provides a more solid basis for the reasoned support of such a faith. Johnston has done a great service both for those who hold to the Christian faith and for those who are open enquirers seeking to assess the merits of the truth claims of Christianity for themselves. All who read this book will be stimulated to ask deeper questions and to answer them in a more compelling manner.

    -Paul Foster, Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity School of Divinity, University of Edinburgh

    With arguments both traditional and new--appealing to recent evidence concerning Jesus’s tomb and considerations of second-century challenges concerning the resurrection story--Johnson both persuades and encourages us. He demonstrates that Jesus’s resurrection makes sense of life and is the centerpiece of our hope.

    --Craig S. Keener, F. M. and Ada Thompson Professor of Biblical Studies, Asbury Theological Seminary

    Dr. Jeremiah Johnston is on the front lines of battle, ensuring a biblical worldview is clear and present as students, staff, teachers, and parents gear up to defend the Christian faith. Body of Proof is a strong injection of truth around the foundational principle of the resurrection of Christ. This truth strengthens our faith and fortifies our relationship with the One who died in our place and rose again with the Ultimate Victory!

    --Michael Goddard, EdD, Superintendent of Prestonwood Christian Academy
