Luke was not only a meticulous historian, he was also an eyewitness of the resurrection himself! Isn’t it peculiar that in a modern court of law eyewitness accounts are almost unbeatable? But when it comes to the resurrection of Jesus Christ people are willing, almost eager to dismiss them.

Men, over 2,000 years ago Jesus Christ died on a Roman cross, then rose from the dead the third day. Scripture declares that He did this to provide salvation for a wicked humanity on their way to an eternity without God in hell. But was it necessary? Did Jesus have to die? Why couldn’t God just overlook man’s sins?
