That if there really was a grave they'd be making money off of it and since they are not, it's somehow *proof* that Mary had no grave and was assumed???????

I doubt any of them could find the grave of Genghis Khan, or Hannibal, or Crispus Attucks, but does that mean their graves don’t exist? I think not. 😅😂😊

Hey bro, I remember you telling someone to read the Greek. I seem to remember it was concerning the verses, telling the apostles they could retain of forgive sins. I know you can read Greek. I will go one better. I have a friend here, who is from Greece. Guess what his first language is? It’s GREEK. Amazing. Anyway I had him look at the Greek, concerning those verses. I asked him, if it meant the apostles had the power to forgive or retain sins. He said, it doesn’t even come remotely close to saying that. He said, what it means, is the apostles (and every believer) can preach the gospel, and if they become born anew from above, they could truthfully say, because of your faith in Christ, God has forgiven your sins, and if you reject Jesus, (which 95% of the world does) we can say, because of your rejection of Christ, God has NOT forgiven you. But no way, on God’s green earth, can people forgive anyone’s sins. Only God forgives sins. It’s blasphemous to say anyone else can.
