In Christian theology, resurrection refers to the bodily raising of the dead by the power of God. Most centrally, it refers to the resurrection of Jesus Christ three days after His crucifixion, proving His victory over sin, death, and Satan. The resurrection is foundational to the gospel and guarantees the future bodily resurrection of all believers.
