Only the third statement is what Christians believe.

- The Resurrection did occur (contrary to statement 1) and is a central Christian claim.
- Pontius Pilate was involved in Jesus’ trial and crucifixion, but he is not part of the Resurrection itself (so statement 2 is misleading).
- Christians hold that the Resurrection confirms Jesus’ identity as the Son of God and vindicates his teaching and mission (statement 3 is correct).
- The Resurrection is understood as spiritual/victory over sin and death, not a political liberation of the Jewish people from Roman rule (so statement 4 is incorrect).
