The minimal facts argument for the resurrection of Jesus is a logical argument that seeks to establish the historical truth of Jesus' resurrection using only a small number of facts that are widely accepted by a broad spectrum of historians, both Christian and non-Christian. The basic structure of the argument is as follows:
Jesus' death by crucifixion is a historical fact that is widely accepted by scholars.
The empty tomb of Jesus is a historical fact that is widely accepted by scholars.
The appearance of Jesus to his disciples after his death is a historical fact that is widely accepted by scholars.
The conversion of Paul from a persecutor of Christians to a devout follower of Jesus is a historical fact that is widely accepted by scholars. #bible #biblestudy #apologetics #jesus
