3. The transformation from fear to martyrdom
4. The empty tomb
5. They proclaimed the resurrection in Jerusalem itself.
6. No one was able to produce the body.
7. The existence of the church founded by law-abiding Jews.
8. The change of the day of worship to Sunday
9. The conversion of James.
10. The conversion of Saul of Tarsus.
