SCRIPTURE

"Why is it judged incredible with you, if God doth raise the dead?" — Acts 26:8 (ASV)

Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?

That great fact of the resurrection of Christ is the cornerstone of the temple of truth, the keystone of the arch of the gospel. The apostles made this truth very prominent in their preaching, and here Paul began his address with it. It was the great difficulty of the Christian religion at that period, so Paul went straight to it at once.
