The bodily resurrection of Jesus
Christ from the dead is crucial to Christianity.
It proves the heavenly Father-God accepted Jesus’ innocent blood sacrifice
in total payment for sins and won everlasting life for man.
The current reports denying the
holy, unmarried life and bodily resurrection from true death, of Jesus Christ are not new. Similar theories have tried
and failed. Jury members carefully compare physical evidence and testimony.
True Christianity is not a tale; it stands on genuine historical
events as documented in the Bible. True Christians will welcome this great chance, and others to sharpen
and witness.
Some quick
thoughts: Another recent affront to Christianity, the “Da
Vinci Code” has largely been debunked, the History Channel showing the documentation is phony and a DNA test failed.
Decades
ago scientists spoke of Ape-Men: Java man, Cro-Magnon Man, Peking Man, etc. They’ve all been debunked
and are no longer in textbooks. Piltdown man was in the proud British Museum about 40 years with some 500 books and pamphlets
written before Piltdown was proved a forgery.
We’ve been told for a 100 years that science shows
evolution to be true. But now 10 to 100 millions of Earth species with billion-letter-genetic-codes
show this is an exquisitely MADE world.
Two Border Patrol agents were recently convicted. Now we learn key evidence was withheld.
Let’s
be real careful to “WAIT AND SEE” about this so-called Jesus’ Family Tomb stuff!
Consider
other key points: First, the Bible track record checks;
the secular expert’s record does not! Most secular experts reject the CREATOR
outright and can’t be trusted to speak on God’s works.
Modern high tech devices reveal immense mind-boggling
intricacy everywhere we look in nature. Estimates for numbers of Earth species are 10 to
100 million with genomes in billions of letters. We are high-tech!
Sophisticated
codes galore demand a mighty Creator-God. Don’t trust God rejectors!
Body,
soul and spirit ARE us! Consciousness –
just think of it –an absolute marvel! The modern terminology is false, though. The Bible’s
right.
The SOUL!
That’s what it really is! Same with your SPIRIT!
It is NOT your “sub consciousness” – things DO NOT
“POP” into your head”
No! Your God-made SPIRIT autonomously communicates with your SOUL concerning
things you might otherwise forget. The Bible says your SPIRIT scans your being and acquires
information it needs to recall to you.
The Bible is right! Second, the Bible is the 800 pound gorilla. 10,000+ ancient, handwritten Bible texts remain, as manuscripts, in old church service books, or as quotations in writings
of churchmen. 99% of NT texts agree to 90%, 90% agree to 97%.
The great bible scholar, CI Scofield said:
“From Genesis
the Bible bears witness to one God. Wherever He speaks or acts he is consistent with himself, and with
the total revelation concerning Him.
The Bible forms one continuous story --the story of humanity in relation to God. The Bible hazards the most unlikely
predictions concerning the future, and, when the centuries have brought round the appointed time, records their fulfillment.
The Bible is a progressive
unfolding of truth. Nothing is told all at once, and once for all. The law is, “First
the blade, then the ear, after that the full grain.”
Without the possibility of collusion, often with centuries between, one
writer of Scripture takes up an earlier revelation, adds to it, lays down the pen, and in due time another man moved by the
Holy Spirit, and another, and another, add new details till the whole is complete.
From beginning to end the Bible testifies to one redemption.
The Bible has one great theme--the Person and work of Christ. Finally, these writers, some forty
in number, writing through twenty centuries, have produced a perfect harmony of doctrine in progressive unfolding.
This is, to every candid
mind, the unanswerable proof of the divine inspiration of the Bible.”
Jesus said: I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh
unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6
