Islam, based on the Qur’an, Sura 4:157, denies that Jesus was crucified, claiming instead that it was made to appear so, and that Jesus was taken up to God without being killed. In contrast, the Bible consistently affirms Jesus’ crucifixion, death, and resurrection as central to the Gospel.
As Christians, we believe in the historical death and resurrection of Jesus not only because eyewitnesses recorded it, but also because it fulfills the prophecies and forms the foundation of God's plan to redeem humanity.
The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus are not just historical facts—they are the core of God’s redemptive plan. Let’s present Jesus not merely as a prophet, but as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world (John 1:29).
