1. Jesus himself testified to his coming resurrection from the dead (Mk. 8:31; cf. Mt. 17:22, Lk. 9:22). 2. The tomb was empty on Easter (Luke 24:3). 3. The disciples were almost immediately transformed from men who were hopeless and fearful after the crucifixion (Lk. 24:21; Jn. 20:19) into men who were confident and bold witnesses of the resurrection (Ac. 2:24; 3:15; 4:2). 4. Paul claimed that, not only had he seen the risen Christ, but that 500 others had seen him also, and many were still alive when he made this public claim (1 Cor. 15:6). 5. The sheer existence of a thriving, empire-conquering early Christian church supports the truth of the resurrection claim. 6. The Apostle Paul’s conversion supports the truth of the resurrection (Ac. 9). 7. The New Testament witnesses do not bear the stamp of dupes or deceivers. 8. There is a self-authenticating glory in the gospel of Christ’s death and resurrection as narrated by the biblical witnesses (Jn. 16:13).

INGREDIENTS

1		Stick unsalted butter; (4 ounces)
2/3	c	Brown sugar; (3 1/2 ounces by
		; weight)
5	fl	Dark corn syrup; (5 1/2 ounces by
		; weight)
1		Pinches kosher salt
		A quarter lemon; Juice of
1	c	Flour; (4 1/2 ounces by
		; weight)

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine all ingredients except flour in a small, heavy saucepan over
med-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring often. Once mixture is at a boil,
stir constantly for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and sift in flour a little
at a time, stirring to combine each addition before adding the next. Cool
to room temperature or refrigerate for later use. (If refrigerated, allow
mixture to come up to room temperature before cooking.)
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cover a backing pan or cookie sheet with
parchment paper and spoon out mixture with a metal soup spoon or a number
50 disher. Cookies will spread out like crazy, so place dollops 6 to 8
inches apart. Bake 18 minutes or until deep mahogany brown.
To form into cups, use a metal spatula to transfer the hot candy disks to
the bottoms of inverted ramekins or custard cups. (Have a ramekin for each
disk, or the disks will set before you can get through them all.) Work
quickly and the disks will conform to the shape of the cups. Remove when
cool and store wrapped with paper towel inside resealable plastic bags.
Variation:While hot, disks can be cut into shapes with a pizza cutter and
used as garnish for other desserts, or left flat and eaten like pralines.
