Guards were guarding the tomb. The Roman soldiers would have been killed if they had fallen asleep
for someone to steal the body of Jesus, so they kept close watch over Jesus' tomb.
Harmony of the gospels. God used men over hundreds of years to write the Bible with God breathed infallable, inspiration-
God's Word.
And yet its in harmony all the way through the Bible pointing toward Christ. There was over 300 prophecies fulfilled
about Christ.
Incarnation. Since Christ was God's Son, he could raise himself from the dead.
Jesus was the perfect Lamb sacrifice. In the old testament, people sacrificed animals for forgiveness of sin. But
Jesus with no sin came as the perfect sacrifice, so we could have forgiveness. He made a bridge for us to have eternal life
by believing in him. He closed the gap, and provided the Only sacrfice we need. We don't have to do sacrifice or earn our
way into heaven.
Knowing Jesus knew he would be going to the cross with pain and suffering, yet he was willing
to do it for us. He knew he would be spat upon and have a crown of thorns pushed into his head. He could have fled a thousand
times, and yet he went to the cross for us.
Locked Doors. Jesus disciples were scared when Jesus died. He was their leader. The disciples were trembling in fear hiding in
a locked room, but Jesus found them and walked right through the locked door!
Messiah Jesus was the Messiah people had been waiting for. Why did so many miss it? They
were waiting for him to come on a high horse claiming victory over their bondage. Yet Scripture promised he would come as
a humble baby in a manger.
No one any time or any where can even compare to their life to Jesus. He accomplished more in
the three years he did his ministry here on earth
Origins. God gives us the answers to our origins, if the same God gives is begining of life, He can also give us a resurected

Passover time was a time that they sacrificed a Passover lamb for forgiveness of sin. Jesus went to the cross as the perfect Passover Lamb.
Questions are answered. God gives us the answers in His Word, the Bible. All the through
the Bible, its consistant and all points toward Christ.
Reliable Records of the accuarte Bible can be trusted. There has never been such a book! So many
prophecies has been fulfilled, even though parts of the Bible were written at different times, that the accuracy cannot
be denied!
Stone was rolled away! The stone that covered the tomb would have been too heavy for anyone to
roll away themselves.
Tomb was empty!
