Did Jesus really rise from the dead?
La résurrection est l’affirmation centrale du christianisme : Jésus est mort, a été enseveli et est ressuscité corporellement le troisième jour, devant de nombreux témoins.

Paul summarizes the earliest Christian message: “Christ died for our sins... He was buried... He was raised on the third day... and He appeared” to Peter, the Twelve, and “more than five hundred” at once (1 Corinthians 15:3–6). He pointedly notes that many of those witnesses were still alive to be questioned.
The Gospels report an empty tomb first discovered by women, and repeated appearances of the risen Jesus, who ate with his followers and could be touched (Luke 24; John 20–21). The disciples, once hiding in fear, were transformed into bold witnesses willing to die for what they claimed to have seen.
Paul stakes everything on it: “if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile” (1 Corinthians 15:17). For Christians, the resurrection is both a historical event and the guarantee of their own hope of life beyond death.
