But God raised Him from the dead. He was seen for many days by those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are His witnesses to the people.
Acts 13:30-31

The Old Testament law disallowed a person to be executed for a capital crime unless there were two or three witnesses (Deuteronomy 17:6). God is more than casually concerned that a matter be adequately verified before it is believed.

In the matter of Jesus’ resurrection, one witness is not sufficient. Nor is two, or even three. So God made sure that Jesus was seen alive, after He was dead and then raised from the dead, by over 500 eyewitnesses according to 1 Corinthians 15:6:

“After that He was seen by over five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep.”

The fact of Jesus’ resurrection is verifiable. To deny it is to deny the facts. To believe it is not a blind leap of faith, but faith in the truth!
