Does the book of Mormon reference the resurrection of Jesus?
Yes! The Book of Mormon references the resurrection of Jesus Christ long before the event actually took place. In 2 Nephi chapter 9 (estimated to be written in 559 BC) we learn that it has been the plan of God from the beginning that there should be a resurrection brought about by the atonement of a Savior, who is Jesus Christ. In Jacob chapter 4 (estimated to be written in 544 BC), the atonement and resurrection of Jesus Christ is also mentioned. In the book of Mosiah, chapter 15 (estimated to be written in 148 BC) the doctrine of resurrection is discussed. Here, we learn that Jesus Christ will break the bonds of death, that He will be resurrected, and that through Him all others will be resurrected. Jesus' resurrection is also discussed in chapter 18. In Alma chapter 40 (estimated to be written in 74 BC), the doctrine of resurrection and the event of Christ's resurrection is discussed in further detail. Helaman chapter 14 (estimated to be written in 6 BC) teaches that "the resurrection of Christ redeemeth mankind." and foretells what those on the American continent will experience at the time of Christ's death and resurrection. The 3 Nephi tells of the events that occurred in the Americas at the time of Jesus Christ's death and resurrection, but does not repeat the Bible story of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It describes a period of three days darkness taking place during the time Christ was in the tomb, and tells the story of the resurrected Christ visiting the Book of Mormon peoples several months after His resurrection. The later books of Mormon and Moroni, written a few hundred years after the life of Christ, remind us that we should have hope in the power of the resurrection of Christ.

Who believes in the resurrection of Jesus?
AnswerMuslims believe in Jesus Resurrection.Muslims believe that Jesus was not crucified. They believe that the enemies of Jesus (peace upon him) plotted and planned to crucify Jesus. However, God miraculously saved Jesus and raised him bodily up to Him (to God). God, the all Powerful and the all Capable, put the likeness of Jesus (peace upon him) over another man. The enemies of Jesus (peace upon him) thought that the this other man is Jesus and they took him and crucified him. God has said:"...They said, "We killed the Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God." They did not kill him, nor did they crucify him, but the likeness of him was put on another man (and they killed that man)... "(Quran, chapter 4, verse 157)Also, some of the early Christians sects did not believe that Christ was killed on the Cross. The Basilidans believed that some one else was substituted for him.It is believed that Jesus is still living in the body in the Heavens and that he will appear just before the Final Day, after the coming of the Mahdi, when the world will be purified of sin and unbelief. There will be a final death for Jesus before the final Resurrection, but all will have believed before that final death.-ELO-

Where in the Bible does it talk about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ?
The death and Resurrection of Christ is recorded in the Gospels of Matthew (Chapters 27-28), Mark (15-16), Luke (23-24), and John (19-20). It is also mentioned in 1 Corinthians 15. Answer2: FOUR REASONS WHY WE KNOW THAT JESUS WAS RESURRECTED (1) Jesus' resurrection happened "according to the Scriptures." God's Word foretold the resurrection. For example, David wrote that God's "loyal one" would not be left in the Grave. (Read Psalm 16:10.) On the day of Pentecost in the year 33, Peter explained that the "loyal one" was Jesus when he said: "[David] foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that neither was he forsaken in the Grave nor did his flesh see corruption."-Acts 2:23-27, 31 (2) Many eyewitnesses saw the resurrected Jesus. During the 40 days after his resurrection, Jesus appeared to his disciples in the garden near his tomb, on the road to the village of Emmaus, and in other places. (Luke 24:13-15) He spoke to individuals, including Peter, and to groups. Once, Jesus even appeared to a crowd of more than 500 people. We cannot ignore the fact that so many eyewitnesses saw the resurrected Jesus. (3) The disciples zealously preached about Jesus' resurrection. They were persecuted, they suffered, and some were killed because of their preaching work. Think about this: If Jesus had not been raised to life, would Peter have risked his life to preach about Christ's resurrection to the same people who hated Jesus and plotted his death? Peter and the other disciples were confident that Jesus was alive and was overseeing the preaching work. Also, Jesus' resurrection gave his followers the strong hope that they too would be resurrected. For example, Stephen died convinced that he would be resurrected.-Acts 7:55-60. (4) Jesus' resurrection confirms all that he taught. One Bible scholar wrote that if Christ was not resurrected, then Christians are foolish people who believe a big lie. Paul wrote that if Jesus were not resurrected, the preaching and the faith of Christians would be worthless. In fact, the Gospel accounts would simply be a sad story of a good and wise man who was killed by his enemies. But Jesus was resurrected, which confirms that everything he taught was true.-Read 1 Corinthians 15:14, 15, 20. Jesus said: "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life." (John 11:25) This promise of Jesus is guaranteed to come true. Jehovah has given Jesus the power to resurrect those who will rule in heaven and the billions who will live on earth. Jesus' sacrifice and resurrection guarantee that there will be no more death. So we can have the strength to endure any trial and even to face death with courage!

Can I talk to my son who has passed away?
From a Biblical standpoint, right now, no. The dead are not conscious as mentioned at Ecclesiastes 9:4-10 and Psalms 146:4. However, Jesus promised the he was the resurrection and the life. (John 11:25) This account of Lazarus, in John chapter 11, shows the Jesus has the power and the desire to raise our dead loved ones. There are also promises of a resurrection at John 5:28,29; Acts 24:15 and Revelation 20:12,13. So, Biblically, you will be unable to contact him right now, but there is hope that he will live again in the resurrection and it will be possible to interact with him at that point.
