The Risen Redeemer: The Gospel History from the Resurrection to the Day of Pentecost (Classic Reprint)

Christ from the dead is the fundamental basis of Christianity. If Christ be not risen from the dead, exclaims the apostle, then is your faith vain. So long as the hostile critic does not succeed in effacing that fact as a fable from the page of history, all efforts to subvert the supernatural basis of our faith and hope are in vain; and however zealously the rash work of destruction has been prosecuted, it has, up to the present hour, been a failure. The miracle of the third day has resisted all levers and engines exerted against it by refined subtilty, as completely as if they were no more than the jugglery of a paltry legerdemain. This one miracle, well sustained, bears, supports, and accredits all the others to which the gospel bears testimony; and it stands still, and will continue to defy, every assault.
