Something to think about.
He is Risen
6 He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Matthew 28:6
In
the book, A case for Christ, the author sets out to prove that the
resurrection did not happen. After an exhaustive investigation, the
author comes to the conclusion that the resurrection did indeed happen.
He found that the reports in the New Testament were true.
The
thing about the truth is, it is indisputable. What that means is
despite your disposition about an event or a report the truth is not
affected. For example, if the resurrection did not happen Christianity
is pointless. It would mean that Christ died pretty much the same as any
other man. It would dismantle the foundation of
every Christian belief. Without the resurrection, Christianity would
have fallen off the map as quickly as His death. And that truth would
have destroyed Christianity. Your acceptance or rejection of truth does
not affect it. In other words, it does not make any difference to the
truth if you believe it or not. The truth stands on its own forever,
there is nothing that can change or effect the truth.
That
is the crux of the issue, is it true? Did the resurrection occur? If it
did it, it is truth and just like any other truth, it can not be changed
regardless of anyone's support or rejection of it.
He is risen is a statement, the question is it is valid. In the book, the author does an excellent job of answering the questions about the validity of
the reports of His resurrection. As a Christian or a non-Christian,
you need to answer this question for yourself. If He was resurrected
your eternity is assured if He wasn't resurrected, you're not bound by
any of the claims of Christianity. I believe if you follow the evidence
as did the author of the book you will come to the same conclusion. He
Is Risen.
