Okay...

There's still no way to know whether the event actually happened or whether the author simply made it up.

There IS a way to know it actually happened. But you have to trust in the One who is now alive.

Just one more note........it is not a singular 'author' who told of the resurrection. There were many eyewitnesses to the risen Christ, more than one of whom wrote down what he saw.
