Of course, if the disciples stole the body to make it look like Christ had risen when he really hadn’t, why would they turn around and devote their lives to poverty, hardship and certain torture and death?
And if either the Jewish or Roman authorities had possession of the body of Jesus, they would certainly have put it on display in order to crush this new religion which was such a threat to their power.
But history shows the news of the day was that the tomb was empty.
The Roman authorities accepted it.
The Jewish authorities did also.
There were no claims during that period in history contradicting the fact of the empty tomb.
I don't think the disciples stole his body.
And if either the Jewish or Roman authorities had possession of the body of Jesus, they would certainly have put it on display in order to crush this new religion which was such a threat to their power.
That would seem the most logical.
Who were the two guys, in the tomb, with shining suits like lightning ?
How was Jesus 'resurrected' ?
