Hey guys,

Just wanted to post something on this site for new believers when they hear about this Jesus Tomb Documentary.

First the Jews knew exactly where the tomb was located. They knew the tomb was empty and made up a lie so the story wouldn't stick that He was raised as He had predicted He would be.

Matthew 28:11-15
Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done. [12] And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers, [13] Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept. [14] And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you. [15] So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

Notice it was because Christ's tomb was empty that the Jewish elders hatched up this lie. If they had known he was still in his tomb they could have stopped Christianity dead in its tracks by just showing the body. Notice also that the Roman guards who had been placed at the tomb knew it to be empty.




Now these Holly Wood clowns who claim to have found Christ's Tomb because they claim to have found a coffin bearing the name Jesus on it, along with his children shows their ignorance. The name Jesus was extremely common in Israel in those days. It would be as common ,or more so, as James, John, David or Robert today. Many many coffins have been found in the past bearing the name of Jesus. People of that day didn't have second names to identify themselves, such as my name" David Campbell" to distinguish myself from people like my friend David Brian, Or David Kellet my cousin, or my other friend David Bailey. That is why Jesus was called Jesus of Nazareth, and Jesus the Carpenter, and Jesus the son of Joseph and Mary, to distinguish Him from all the others who went by that name. Biblical names were all the rage in these early days of the faith. Mary was one of the most popular female names of the time. The science behind their arguments is elementary at best and is used to give the "scientific credibility" people these days place all of their faith in and make them tons of money.

These guys have a bias toward Christianity, and are trying to give it a black eye.Moreover they expect to make money off of a naive public who is too ignorant of scripture and the history in New Testament times to realize they are being had. Moreover a little close reading of scripture will reveal that Christ had no coffin as was so of many others. He was buried in such a hurry there was no time to even consider such. He was covered in aromatic spices that would help keep down the odor of dead people, wrapped in cloth bandages, put in a cave with a huge stone rolled across the cave mouth to keep out wild animals and grave robbers.

He most certainly rose the third day, and was seen by hundreds. If His body had been anywhere in Israel the Christian Killers of the day would have no doubt produced the body to stop this movement. They could not do this because He had acsended. Many of the eyewitnesses laid down their lives for the risen Christ, as would I.

With Love,

David

There have always been folks who want to deny Jesus' death and resurrection. The early church had to fight against Gnosticism, which taught that the resurrected Jesus was a ghost, not flesh and blood come back to life. That came out of the gentiles, Greeks and Roman folks. They took that to justify their living wicked lives with their bodies but claimed that their souls were kept righteous. They wanted to make Christianity fit their culture. Lots of religous/church folks still trying to make that the case today. Taking scripture and interpreting it with scissors and permanent marker. Don't like something, snip it out/blot it out.... keep on reading the parts you like. When the Bible is read that way in churches there is no power in those hollow places. Oh well, many will say Lord, Lord but to them He will say Depart, I don't know who you are. Hold tight to the word of God and do not give up meeting together until He comes again. Don't grow tired of doing good, and even more so as the day of His coming gets closer.

We arenear the end time and the Word of the Lord is being slandered by from false witnesses from all sides. It is important that we as Christians pull together and strenghthen each other that we be not decieved!
