 | Good, but could use more detail Nov 15, 2006 |
This book is very good as an introductory-level book but could use quite a bit more detail. I felt like the book had just started to scratch the surface of what could be said about each topic before moving on to another subject. I think that this book is probably meant to be simply an introduction to the topics, so I guess I probably shouldn't criticize a horse for not flying. I still wish that it hadn't been so brief though. This book is a lot shorter than it actually seems, because the appendixes take up so much space. The appendixes were too long and I didn't find them to be all that valuable; I wish that the author had used this space to expand on a lot of the ideas presented in the text instead.
I liked the format of this book. I'm not aware of too many books that approach resurrection from this angle. I liked the approach of first giving evidence for Jesus' physical death and Resurrection and using that as a jumping off point to talk about our physical resurrection. He made some good connections there I think.
He also made some good comments on heaven, answering common questions and dispelling some misconceptions along the way, such as "if heaven is perfect, won't it be boring?" Hanegraaff shows that this is based on a faulty assumption about Heaven.
This book is relatively brief but a worthwhile read I think. I would recommend reading this book along with Randy Alcorn's book "Heaven." They go together very well. | | |  | Hank shows his gullibility Jun 12, 2006 |
He accepts at face value stories in the NT about the empty tomb and reappearances of Jesus after his death. He does not consider that none of the gospels were written by people who were the contemporaries of Jesus nor the effect of charismatic personalities upon the beliefs of the early Church. Prophets in our time have had their prophecies falsified by events not occurring which they predicted. Yet most of their followers continue to believe. Something that Jesus predicted---his coming again in glory within the lifetimes of some of those who saw him before his death---manifestly did not happen. And that does not daunt the faithful at all.
A useful study of how religions adapt to failed prophecies is Diana Tumminia, When Prophecy Never Fails, Oxford UP.
Robin Lane Fox, Truth and Fiction in the Bible is a book by an eminent historian, but perhaps not for readers who prefer faith (the evidence of things not seen) to reasoning and evidence.
Books by J D Crossan and Marcus Borg are also valuable. | | |  | Resurrection: The Blessed Hope Feb 18, 2005 |
I have read this book years ago and it's a great resource for Christians to have. As Hank is great at doing, writing to the new believers in Christ, in a easy and cogent way. This book is a great book on one of the best historical event in history. The resurrection is the hope of every believer and we should be able to defend it and know what are hope is.
Good Job

| I would've given it 4.5 for being a little dry sometimes but I couldn't. So I rounded up :D. | | | | JESUS' RESURRECTION IS PROOF OF OUR OWN RISING Jan 29, 2002 |
Hank Hanegraaff has done an outstanding service to saints,seekers
skeptics,scholars and sinners alike with this powerful book. It joins those by C.S.Lewis,Josh McDowell,John MacArthur,Francis
Schaeffer,Henry Morris,D.James Kennedy and others as a definitive
apologetic work to persuade those open to historical evidence
of the fact of the Resurrection of Jesus from the dead.Almighty God has set a day when He will Judge the planet by the
Man He has chosen, Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He has given proof of this to all men by the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. No historical event of ancient times is more documented or attested to by impartial,accurate,undeniable,voluminous,overwhelming
evidence as Jesus' rising from the dead in Jerusalem and appearing to hundreds of eyewitnesses over a period of 40 days. Of course there is still an element of faith involved in accepting the Bible's eyewitness testimony about Easter. We have
not proof beyond a shadow of a doubt, but what satisfies even a court of law: beyond a reasonable doubt after a preponderance of the evidence. Evidence that demands a verdict from every person on the face of planet Earth. The only way to know for sure if this book is true is to wait until Judgment Day and see if you yourself are resurrected to meet Him. Until then, this is the next best thing to the Bible
itself to have confidence that Jesus is Alive and is getting ready to return for the Last Time. Are you ready? Jesus said to (doubting)Thomas,"Reach your finger here and look at My (nail-pierced) hands; and reach your hand here and put it into My (spear-pierced) side. Do not be unbelieving, but
believing." Thomas answered Him, "My Lord and My God!"
Jesus replied, "Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." (John 20:27-29) | | | Write your own review about Resurrection The Capstone In The Arch Of Christianity
