So the Jews thought there were two Messiahs coming once each. Jesus said, no there’s one Messiah coming twice. And this is how they arrived at that, and how Jesus was the most unlikely candidate to be the Messiah of his time.
Maybe skeptics will say, Josh a lot of people have died for a great cause. And that is true. But the great cause of the apostles died on the cross. Let me give you a little historical context to greater appreciate that statement.
After Jesus’ death the lives of the apostles were transformed to the point that they endured persecution and even martyrdom. Such strength of convictions indicates they were not just claiming that Jesus rose from the dead and appeared to them in order to receive some personal benefit, but they really believed it.
If the resurrection wasn’t true, the apostles would have to know it, and then you would have to say this: they not only died for a lie, but they knew it was a lie. If that were true, that would be eleven miracles greater than the miracle of the resurrection.
