If after reading the last sentence I typed, you immediately in your mind begin thinking of other possible "naturalistic" explanations for this event then you should ask yourself......
Why?
Why am I trying to explain it away? Why am I not accepting that it could only be because Christ has power over death?
Why am I so dead-set against miracles happening?
Why do I assume a priori that those things cannot happen?
Would it really be Christ wielding that power?... or you?
Why would you think it was some christ?
Why are you so dead-set for miracles happening?
Why do you assume a priori that those things can happen?
Is there any occasion in history where those things have happened? Beyond the shadow of a doubt? (pics or it didn't happen, remember?)
You are still asking questions which proves my point.
Why ask why?
If you were alive in Jesus' day, and you saw all that He was doing and saying and you saw Him raise a man from the grave that had been dead for three days you still seem to insinuate that you would be in doubt....
Why would you be so reluctant to confess that Christ was indeed who He said He was?
What is the issue here? I really fail to see it.
Maybe............it is because you just do not like the idea of Christ coming on the seen and making the claim that it is He who is Lord of All......
The Pharisees loved the honor of men. This prevented them from believing.
Now you know why I have been saying all along that there exists no type of evidence for the existence of God that cannot be explained away by them that are unwilling to believe.
I think I have proven my point. All I have to do is refer to your own posts to prove it.
