William Lane Craig

Philosopher; Talbot School of Theology

The angels at the tomb redirect the women's search: why are you looking for the living among the dead? The question assumes what no one yet believed possible—that the crucified one is alive. The tomb is empty not because someone stole the body but because death could not hold the Author of life.

Craig has spent decades examining the historical evidence for the resurrection and concludes: the appearances, the empty tomb, and the transformation of the disciples are best explained by a real, bodily resurrection. This is not blind faith—it is historically grounded confidence. Today, your entire hope rests on a fact: He is not here. He has risen.
