In this sermon, Mel Purvis teaches on the phrase "infallible proofs" in Acts 1:3, explaining that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is not a myth, hallucination, or emotional exaggeration, but an event backed by evidence that cannot be reasonably denied. He emphasizes that the disciples were not expecting the resurrection, were not prone to delusion, and were strong, rational men who spent more than three years with Jesus and recognized Him intimately.
Purvis stresses that the resurrection is the foundation of Christian preaching, Christian faith, and the power behind the apostles' ministry. Using both Acts 1 and 1 Corinthians 15, he details the many eyewitness accounts, the multiple appearances in different places, and the depth of fellowship Jesus had with His disciples after rising from the dead. He argues that the resurrection is the most historically validated miracle in Scripture.
