Nobody has returned from the dead since the resurrection of Christ. Um, Lazarus?

Christ had not been crucified when he raised Lazarus from the dead, so the statement is correct.

Nobody has returned from the dead since the resurrection of Christ.

Are you sure?

Mat 27:50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
Mat 27:51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
Mat 27:52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
Mat 27:53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
Note that the author, in writing after the fact, got a little ahead of himself in the telling and then added the clarification that this didn't happen until after Jesus' resurrection.
