Read the gospels and they will sing to your heart and you will weep from seeing the veil lifted. Don’t be dismayed by people saying their denomination or Bible version is the only way. Begin the journey and Jesus will lead you. Faith always and God bless you. 🙏🏽
I had a near death experience at 16. I was floating up from my body and I could see myself and the doctors and nurses working on me as I passed them by and floated higher and I had a sudden thought about my mom and how she would cope about me gone and in that split second I got a response telepathically. It was a male voice "even when I talk to myself in my head I still sound like me" and He said He would take care of her and she would be ok. And I trusted Him completely and I KNEW nothing bad would ever happen again. And the feeling, it's indescribable. No words. I felt unfathomable peace and the love and it was beyond anything, I felt I was finally in a family, a big family and I belonged there all this time, like it was the home that truly was mine all along. As I was right below the ceiling for what seemed like a minute maybe 2 I started going back down ( I was being shocked back to life) and I suddenly became really frightened and I started screaming NO NO NO as I started decending and then I entered my body and it was the most awful feeling and I've never been so disappointment. Going back into my body was like putting on heavy wet cold muddy clothes. It was devastating!! I didn't want to go back! But eventually I realized that I needed to KNOW God's supernatural power to experience this immense belonging and love beyond comprehension, I was not meant to stay, but was meant to KNOW. I heard Jesus's voice. The most soothing voice ever. This testimony has given me a confidence that burns to get others saved! And I'm so grateful I had this supernatural experience. Because at the time I didn't know I would be a foot soldier for God and would dedicate myself to fighting for souls for Him. Oh yeah so I've never seen my mother cry except once when she had to deliver the news to me that my father had died. And when I first woke up to my mom crying again with the same pain and anguish I've only seen once and the first thing I said, "who died??"
@@Pose005 that's a very good question since I didn't receive the infilling of the Holy Spirit till I was 31. However at age 6 I looked up at the sky and invited Jesus in to my life. I had no idea at that age what salvation was nor the gospel nor being saved, I just knew I was afraid not to know Jesus and was eager to have Him in my life and I really wanted Him to love me. I was also born into Catholicism. I was seeking Jesus no Mary nor saints. So yes that's a very good question sadly I have no real answer for. But yes Jesus was already a part of my life.
Diana F G , I overdosed. I called myself a Christian, but I was not truly born again, I am now baptized with the Holy Spirit and have a real relationship with Jesus. I was above my body, a demon was coming to take me to hell, I can’t describe how terrifying the voice of this demon was, from the ceiling I was telling myself to wake up, it never even occurred to me to call on Jesus, but yet He had mercy, and I was lowered into my body, and the demon left. Sadly I battled with drugs and alcohol for sometime before I surrendered my life to God, what a beautiful experience that was!! God bless you and keep you safe thru this time of the Corona virus.
My little sister had cystic fibrosis and she passed away at age 5 in 92. Im 2 years older than she is so I remember very well the events of all that went down as well as my mother she shares the same memory. My sister had been very sick and admitted to Emory hospital in early November and my mother never left her side. While she was admitted I stayed with my grandma (this was common) well anyway... I was in school and my mom and sister picked me up from school and I was soooo excited to see them and on the ride home (we are country people we live a mile in the woods off to ourselves) my sister says " mama, let's pick wildflowers." And it's November so of course there are none (but her favorite thing to do is pick wildflowers) So mama says "baby there are no flowers now we have to wait until spring" and (never misssing a beat, all nonchalant) my sister replied "that's ok I'll pick flowers with Jesus" my mom got so upset and thought someone had told her she was going to die. She said "who told you that you were dying?" She said "Jesus, he told me i have to go soon but it's ok we will pick flowers and wait for y'all" I have never forgotten that in my life. My sister passed away 2 days later. It was the last day before Thanksgiving break at school and her tracher asked her to draw a photo of what she was thankful for. She drew a picture of me, my parents and herself with angel wings and a halo. She had more faith in one hair than most do in a lifetime.
@@CitizenX815 Where is the proof that it is unproven nonsense? Faith is part of being Human. When you drive a car, you have to have faith that other people won't drive like idiots or that they will cause an accident and kill you on purpose. If we have to put faith on other people who are flawed and filled with wickedness, why wouldn't I you put my faith into the only perfect being that is Jesus Christ KING of Kings. That's not a question by the way, it's a statement. You might think you're smart and maybe you are, but intelligence won't help you understand everything in life and there will be times in your life where you will have to leave logic behind and believe because if you don't, your end will be that much more painful.
In 2018, I bled out and died on the operating table and I had a similar experience, I remember floating over the operating table listening to the Doctor shouting at one Nurse to hurry up with the Cuff on the I.V. Bag to push blood into me and another nurse to get a larger bore needle into the artery in my other arm to push plasma into me to get my blood pressure back up then I felt a strong pull upwards and the next thing I know I am being shown the glory of Heaven, I felt the Love and Compassion of Heaven then was sent right back and woke up in the recovery room, I did not see GOD or Jesus or any relatives I only saw and felt the love and compassion of Heaven. When the Doctor came into the recovery room I told him about my crazy dream and he turned white as a sheet and told that is exactly what had happened, he told me that while they were removing the bone chip from the shattered L-4 vertebra on my Lumbar spine he cut an artery and I bled out on the operating table and that he shouted at the nurses to do exactly what I just told him about in what I thought was my crazy dream. Now my faith is unshakable.
That is absolutely a breath taking testimony. I'm sorry for what physically happened but your faith is beautiful from what happened. God bless you friend.
The brain remains active for several minutes after a person dies. This is a well established medical fact. The brain is one of the last organs to shut down so it's entirely possible for you to have heard things that occured only seconds after your death. The peace and love one feels near death can also be well explained by an evolutionary mechanism to ease suffering during the death process. You can see this is in prey animals that are being eaten alive, a sense of tranquility come over them at a certain point.
@@andrewofaiur God gives us free will for a reason- you may believe whatever you want to believe. But may I suggest you pray on it? And I mean deeply search your heart and pray to the Creator- ask to understand the Good News and why we need a savior. Afterall, what do you have to lose? Unless you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you’re right (which you def can’t say), then you’re gambling with your own soul and eternity. What’s the harm in taking a leap of faith and seeing where you stand on this issue afterwards? ❤
@@andrewofaiur There are story about patient describing exactly what happened to their body during surgery. Now the patient was sleep during the whole time and could not have view of what the doctor were doing. But the person who it happened to described it as she was watching her surgery from above her body. She was floating. Now how did she see what the doctor were doing if she was unconscious the whole time and there's no way she could have view of what happening to her from above.
I died. I was jumped over a girl I was dating by two guys. I just got home from a party and was very drunk. I later found out I can alcohol poisoning. I was lying in bed and heard my mother screaming outside and I noticed a light shining through my window. I ran outside because I thought my mom was being hurt. All of a sudden, I am being punched in the face. It took the guy about 5 -6 punches to get me on the ground. When he did, he started kicking me. He kicked me until I looked like elephant man. I rolled over as I was passed out. Vomited and inhaled it, collapsing my lungs. I lied there suffocating for several minutes. I remember feeling intense pain to the point that I could not take it anymore. I was shot into visions where I was going through every moment I had ever experienced in my life. I remember it happening backwards. From end to beginning. I remember seeing myself being held by my mother. Her telling me she loved me. Then I was in a room, and I was standing in front of a bed. I saw a little girl sitting in the middle of the bed around 1-3 years old holding her arms out for me to pick her up. She had a little ponytail sticking straight up. I walked towards the baby but soon as I did, I was shot all of sudden in the air. Everything got warm, numb, I felt better than I had ever felt in my entire life. I started lifting off the ground. I was looking at my own face as I slowly drifting up. I could see the Emt's frantically trying to save my life. I was drifting up, and I remember being able to see, hear, and even look around, and I remember feeling amazing. I looked to see my hands and I had none. I had no body, or even feet. I remember someone floating next to me and everything I thought he answered. I remember questioning everything. Life, Death, the point of all this. I remember him saying "Because I wanted it to". "Because I love you". I never could turn enough to see him. He was just out of reach of my sight. I was not religious at all up until this point. But I knew deep down in my heart that this was Jesus Christ. And nothing ever loved me more than this man could. I was resuscitated and woke up in the Cleveland Clinic a day later full of pain. I remember wanting to go back so bad. I was sad and angry. I felt like I was robbed. Two years later my wife gave birth to a little girl. That little girl looked exactly like the vision I saw in what I call, *My life review*. Jesus is 100% our light and our way. Everyone will get their chance to meet him.
Same here. 41 I just turned and I've have felt some strange unconscious pull towards Jesus lately and I can't explain it. I have felt him has of late very strong. I have never straight up denied him but just never went to church regularly. Here and their with my grand parents or mom or sister etc. But never devout.
Pray for me brothers and sisters... 😔 I feel like I’m losing my faith in Christ. I am searching for answers. I love Him so much. Update: thanks guys. I have grown in my faith so much! Going through a dark phase rn, but regardless, God is good!
The fact that you say "I love him so much" shows me you still have your faith in christ. Just keep praying and don't listen to what satan whispers in your ear. Remember he is trying to deceive you.

@@keithtorres5743 Are you saying "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." is an incorrect translation and it should be "Trust is the substance of things hope for, the evidence of things not seen"? Or is the proper translation entirely different? What is or should be the proper translation of that passage according to greek or even hebrew scholars? Do we have that part in Hebrew or no?
I went through an NDE, when I was a kid I was seriously Asthmatic, I was above my body, I saw my mom crying over my body, when I woke up 2 days had passed by, when I woke up I will never forget how I felt, peace in my soul, I was 11 years old, my life changed that day.
@@MakingDisciples4Jesus The mathematician Pascal had a similar saying, which we now call Pascal's Wager (discussed here on RU-vid). Eternity is a................. somewhat long time, and Pascal argues that it's better to err on the side of caution.
My adopted son had open heart surgery at the age of 3 1/2 to repair the pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein and closing holes. He described watching this from above with Jesus. He knew where my husband and I were, and where his paternal aunt was throughout this surgery. Some years later, he described the different machines used, the heart/lung substitution for circulating the blood, and the work done by different health personnel in the OR. There was never any question of his accuracy of descriptions. He is 21 years old now. He always was very certain of his operation experience.
lol truth is subjective, plus just because one is true doesn't mean the other is wrong. Both could very well be true, just a matter of how you connect them. That's me playing devil's advocate at least
@@ArcticBlits I agree. But people can't use their own personal experiences for univeral truth. Let's ask the boy what did jesus look like? Blue eye and blond hair? You will find other people who also claim to have similar experiences describing him differently... So who is telling the truth... You get my point...
@@yehenala1 I see what you are saying, I just think that we can glean universal truth when many peoples subjective experiences line up in a base line level. I also don’t think that the story was meant to prove anything. Just told to reinforce the data presented.
Lord forgive me for I have sinned. Please pray for me and my soul, I want to be a light in the lives of others and serve god. Jesus come into my heart.
Welcome to the family, God's love will always be with you and you have millions of brothers and sisters in Christ. May our heavenly father bless you and keep you 'brother'.
@Fredrik Nilsson Trusting in God for eternal life is not just an intellectual exercise. It's a relationship. It starts with an attitude of gratitude. An outsider observes romantic love with envy and skepticism as well. Both are difficult until one has faith.
I'm only about 60% or so through the Bible with the Daily Audio Bible, so I haven't heard "we grieve but not as those without hope." Truly beautiful, so powerful it gave me chills. :,)
I must recommend you pick up an ESV and read. My experience reading vs listen has been way more fruitful. Mostly because I have time to reread and ponder at my own pace. Literally meditating on the scripture in-between verses. Either way, God bless you sister! The Lord is Faithful! So few actually take in His Word. Praying for you!
@@patriciaschlessman5476I am disgusted. Disgusted with the non believers foolishness in thinking nothing created something. Disgusted in the way “believers” don’t adhere or investigate there beliefs enough to follow correctly and the way they treat there own. Im disgusted that people mock Christ and beat him when he came to save and love they butcher his name when he was innocent l. And what I’m most disgusted with by far is my sin and myself for knowing the truth and the one true god and still winning against him.
@Cam montreuil engines funny. Christianty is the largest growing religon out there. Hm. And things are getting easier and easier for christians everyday, they basicly run the country, so what are you talking about?
@Cam montreuil engines oh no I understand njust fine. You can't just brush it off as if you are better then me. This is what I'm talking about right here. YOU don't know the foul, and vile roots of your dogma so you are going to have a superiority complex and act like you are super smart on the subject and then proceed to tell me I'm living wrong? What's your problem? You know of the dunning kruger effect? That's how I feel christians live. They know less about the subject then most other people who have studied the religon or studied the bible, without the dogma and watered down hog wash. If you are going out of your way to make life difficult so that you may have some sort of reward after life, then you I'm afraid are doing it all wrong. I was a Christian for 20 years. Then I learned all about the dogmatic religon based on vicarious atonement, and human sacrifice. It has rituals that stem from pagan blood Magick, and sun god worship. These apologetic style videos are lacking in serious substance. Watch an actual doctor that wasn't brainwashed by religon talk about these subjects, they have facts and info. This guy had feelings and ideas. That's cute but it means nothing.
I cried out for a sign the morning my Mum passed. Sobbing up the stairs I begged for a reassurance she was ok once my foot hit the last step. Before her stroke we talked of her giving me a sign when she dies. In the lockdown I stayed with my parents and we used to watch little blue birds in their garden. Her favourite bird and her favourite song was about a bird by Eva Cassidy. As soon as I stepped onto the landing a little blue bird was flying inside the house and landed on the floor and looked at me. I cried Mum out loud and I knew what her message was. I replied out loud no I won’t slip into depression yes I will be the best Dad possible and she also told me to get back to karate training. Eatt try lied that morning I woke at 4am seeing colourful flashes and hazy lights with a presence. 4 hour later my brother told me Mum went at dawn. Now I am a complete believer and know we go to a higher beautiful realm.
I had an NDE when I was 11 years old. I don't know why they call it that because your not "nearly", dead, your dead and then you're in another existence then your re-entr your body. I suffocated by inhaling too many helium balloons in a row without breathing regular air in between, this causes rapid suffocation. I went up through the ceiling into a vast void full of other souls. I said to one of them, "I don't know what to do" and he replied "Your angel will come get you". then he continued on until I couldn't see him any longer. (Later when I became an adult I was looking through old pictures that my dad had and I finally recognized who that man was, it was my great grandfather who I only met once when I was 2). Then an angel grabbed onto me and took me up towards a brighter and brighter light. But then I heard my older brother shout my name from down below me and as soon as I looked down towards where he was calling me from the angel released me and I fell back down at what was a very fast speed. I passed down through the void into view of my house like coming back into Earth from space, down through the roof and ceiling at the last instant I saw my body on the floor, laying on it's side beside the footstool with my back facing the footstool. I fell into my body an awoke completely aware of where I just was and what I just saw. My body was tingling with pins and needles like when your leg falls asleep really badly except it was everywhere, from head to toe and I was very cold. I started gasping and sat up in shock and began to cry. I was in the exact place and position I saw myself when I was coming back down through the ceiling. But the place where I blacked out was several feet away at the other end of the coutch. I was also standing when I lost consciousness so there's no way I could have known where my body ended up or in what position it was lying in. When I first sat up my two brothers were standing at the bottom of the stairs looking over at me on the floor. My middle brother was kneeling and crying and my eldest was shouting my name and slapping a yard stick on the railing to make a loud noise, I suppose to try to get a response out of me. His was the voice I heard calling me back. I didn't have any idea how long I was gone. Time seemed different there. It could have been hours. My brothers said I was on the floor for several minutes, maybe 5 or 6. I don't know why I'm telling this except that I know what I know, where I was and what I saw and it wasn't this world. I believe in Jesus, His angels, our souls, and the afterlife which should be called the True life.
I’m starting to go back to my faith in God after realizing that I can’t find my true self without a connection and a belief in a true creator. I’ve had my doubts about Religion but it’s really a relationship through Jesus Christ.
It's called a Near Death Experience because you almost died if you truly were dead we wouldn't be having this conversation. Amazing how people can draw conclusions by pulling the data out of their A**
Sounds like your body went into shock after inhaling gas... Sounds like quite the trip. Hallucinating isn't very credible evidence, but I'm glad you're alive
One time I was in the shower, feeling depressed about my life, like I wasn’t doing enough. I asked God, “I don’t understand, what is wrong with me, why is life so dull, how can I serve you” In that same instant I was transported into my backyard, clothing on, completely dry. I looked around and saw that there were many more plants in there usually were. As I looked around some more, signs started appearing on these plants. All of them naming different parts of my life; Family, school, prayer, ect. But they were also bad plants. Porn, social media, sloth, wrath, ect. As I looked around, even more, I noticed that the good plants were not as big as I’d like them to be, in fact, some of them were almost dead, looking like they had suffered from a drought. On the other hand, most of the bad plants looked like they were flourishing. I looked down at my hand and saw a water bucket that said “time and energy”. It all made sense then. It was such a simple answer, but a very important one. I was transported back to the shower in the exact same position I was when I left. You only get so much water each day for your plants. I knew that if I wanted to make a change, I needed to start putting my time and energy into the good parts of my life, and starve the bad parts.
Jesus is Lord and savior of my life. I never turned back the day i came to him on my knees and prayed for his forgiveness and to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. It’s only been a year n half, but i feel his peace each and everyday. Freedom from sin, from addiction and from eternal death is through the Lord and savior Jesus Christ! All glory be to the true and living God!
How do you get Holy Spirit do I have to get baptized to get it? Ik Jesus says you have to be born again to enter the kingdom of heaven, I’ve asked for the spirit and help to stop sinning I really want to stop but I keep finding my self sinning and Ik God doesn’t hear the prayers of a sinner only when they truly repent but how do I repent without the spirit
@@trevorhull2216 "When you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised him up from the dead, you shall be saved." That is when you receive the Holy Spirit, my friend. But being saved from your sin doesn't mean you'll stop sinning. The Spirit convicts you and changes you so that you no longer *have* to sin. God does hear the prayers of a sinner, brother. He heard me. He hears you. Cry out to him today if you haven't yet. "If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand? But with you there is forgiveness of sins, so that You may be feared." - Psalm 130:3-4
The fact the bible says that women found and report the empty tomb is amazing to me. Women's position in Jewish society makes this even more wonderful. They could've come up with a more socially acceptable scenario if they were making it up. Jesus's disciples were shown in the gospel as they were. They didn't sugarcoat their flaws and shortcomings to make a better story. These men actually walked with Jesus and saw him perform miracles. They helped him on his journey to spread the word. These guys were with him on his last day and heard him say he'd be killed and resurrected. When Jesus was at his most vulnerable his closet friends abandoned him. They were running for their lives and seemed to lose faith. When he appeared to them 3 days later the holy spirit stayed within them. Out of the 12 men 10 of them were brutally murdered later spreading the gospel of Jesus. They wouldn't have faced a brutal death if They knew that Jesus's death and resurrection were lies.
@@lionzion1879 They ran off when he was crucified why would they sacrifice their own life later when they didn't right then? They were afraid at first. They must have seen something that made them believe enough to get themselves killed to change like that. They had to have reallly seen him come back to life. Would you sacrifice yourself for something you believed in if you had doubts? Probably not. But if you KNEW it was true, then that changes things doesn't it
@@kaylee1leri1love that can be explained in a way that doesn't need a resurrection. Being a martyr is not new. People have been dying for their beliefs for centuries and it's even happening today. Doesn't make it any truthful than what they claim. It just means you're willing to die for what you believe to be true. They ran off cause they we're afraid to die. But when they've seen Jesus died for what he believed, then they believe they had to the same. As in my lord did it, I will follow. Think about it. If Jesus came back to life then they don't need to go around and die for it. Jesus would just show up to the non believers right?. Not the case here though
Using logic and reason, tell me with 100% honesty that you truly believe its common for people to willingly die for something they KNOW to be a lie? On top of that, the historically documented and accepted claims from Non biblical sources that bolster the evidence of their martyrdom. On top of that, explain 500 people claiming to see him at one time; and Paul claiming that the majority of them were still alive at the time of his letter. People could've asked around and verified his claims. Explain Christianity EXPLODING out of Jerusalem, the very place all of this was claimed to have happened, they could've easily verified if it was true or not; the best place to start a religion on a lie wouldn't be the place you're claiming it to have happened. @@lionzion1879
My own theory of Jesus weeping I never hear is that is wasn't over the death of Lazarus,as he knows it's not a true final death more than anyone, but rather he is feeling and understands the sorrow of the people around him. That seems to be overlooked sometimes.

It was so heartening to see a first class scholar and born again believer like Dr. Habermas. My return to Christ was strengthen by his own faith and objective writing. I no longer need to be persuaded by NDE stories. Praise God!!
The Bible is so credible. If hearing NDE stories help, fine. I understand, but there have been so many others besides the apostles (not to mention the Old Testament prophets who pointed toward the coming Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world) who recorded things they'd seen & were not necessarily believers. Feed your faith w/ His Word, George, dear.
@pippin1962 And if you were EVER truly a Christian, which I highly doubt - more like a wolf in sheep's clothing- you have the same comfort to know that your Savior said, 'I know my Sheep. No man can take them out of my hand'. So no matter how you rail n hate n spit against Him, He has you. Even YOU can't take you out of His hand. But...I still think you NEVER WERE CONVERTED. If that's the truth, enjoy Hell, your chosen future. 😚👹
@@kristapavel364 THANK YOU SO MUCH. I thank GOD for people like you. Your prayers have kept me in peace with myself the past few weeks. THANK YOU AGAIN
I ask for prayers of my soul. I constantly am falling into temptation and taking God’s free gift for granted. Pray that God gives me strength, wisdom, and purity. God bless you.
Rod. I've been reading and listening to Dr Herbert's for years now. He always produces highly researched, very intelligent and insightful, scholarly work. It's hard not to have a lot of respect for a man who is highly passionate about his work and following Christ, while showing respect to Atheists and admitting when evidence is lacking in certain areas of Christianity. Thanks for the great talk. We all seek Truth and understanding (knowledge/Wisdom). We Christians , our Atheist brothers and sisters and most everyone else. We are not going to all agree. Even so , I love how we can debate. If we don't listen to other people we will learn very little. Touching souls, it really matters.
The Bible says that Jesus came out of the tomb. As a Bible believing man I know it happened. What I had to do was put my doubts in the Holy Spirit's hands and constantly remind myself that Jesus is alive and well. That sounds easy. That even sounds trite. However, it is true and it did happen. Sometimes the knowledge that Jesus is truly the King of Kings makes all the rest of what I think seem unimportant. Praise to YOU my Living Lord. Forgive my disbelief and strengthen my heart.
Seriously flawed logic here. Talk about circular reasoning- you want to believe something your intelligence tells you is nonsense but you tell yourself you believe it anyway. There’s an expression that describes that but I can’t think of it right now. Delusional?
RAY RAY RAY RAY 1. I am not cold hearted, I am extremely caring, loving, altruistic and empathetic. 2. I am not stubborn, as I will always change my ideas if presented with convincing evidence. 3. As Jesus died 2000 years ago, I seriously doubt that he’s in any position to love anybody. I am not convinced he really loved anybody when he was alive, actually, since he told people to leave their families and sell all their possessions with no good reason.
Be careful of what you insight because using that logic. I can faith that Killing every living thing on earth in the most horrific way possible will make everyone happy Since no one will be left to be sad.
@@Speykious I wouldn't actually even like it to be faithed because it's something that can happen if someone finds a scripture that claims God wants someone to kill all Living things in the Universe some people will actually try to do it.
@@Speykious I was referring to a portion of scripture found in the New Testament, the first epistle of Peter, chapter 3, verse 15. I didn't have my Bible nearby when I commented which I apologize for, I am sorry about that. First Peter, chapter 3, verses 15 & 16 say, "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts; and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ." I apologize for my lack of clarification.
@@mickqQ Then why do people believe that day follows night and night follows day? Why do people believe that when they sit down in a chair that the chair will support them? Why is it that when you attempt to stand up you believe that you will stand and expect to stand? You may say, ",That's not faith, that's expectation." However, the reason why you expect it to happen is because you have faith that it will happen. People live by faith every day but they don't realize it.
Jesus saved my life, so to Him I owe Him not only my life but everything in it. How amazing it is to know the creator of the universe cares about me, and loves me, and died a death I deserved just so I could spend eternity with Him. I do not deserve a God this great, but I’m beyond grateful that I know Him.
The more you cling to this world and this existence is the further you push yourself away from the answers your looking for, because the answers are only accessible in what lies ‘beyond’
@Carlos Rodriguez because I'm educated. Denying evolution is pretty clear the person is uneducated / dishonest. It's not a belief system, it's a scientific fact. You could start with our 2nd chromosome how it was fused and when.. look that up and get back to me.
@Carlos Rodriguez no... Evolution has been repeatedly confirmed through test and observation.. Atheism has nothing to do with Evolution. But good guess I do not believe in gods... Evolution does not disprove nor prove a god exists ... Which is why many religions even many ppl in Christianity accept Evolution. Denying evolution is pretty stupid, and a very good sign you're uneducated in science
Recently, when praising God I had thoughts, that wanted me to say you are so fantastic. But I actually looked up that Word. I dont use it to describe God or his deeds. For he is real and wonderful. Sorry for being picky! Have a great time. God is so good. And Jesus is our Christ.
Agnostic skeptic here. Just bought the book cause, how can you not. I have to know if this guy isn’t just blowing smoke or if there really is something to this. I want the know what’s really the truth and this got my attention.
The true explanation, whatever it is, will be the explanation the most easily accounts for all the evidence. The remarkable thing is that when you gather in all the historical evidence concerning early Christianity and you go through a list of possible explanations, you'll eventually find that the explanation that most easily accounts for this evidence is that Jesus was resurrected from the dead.
Christian leaning agnostic here. I've looked into this a bit and what I'm gathering is that when you look at the evidence, you have to conclude that either Jesus rose from the dead, or you've got to say something really weird happened and we don't know what. Which is okay.
The Vulture or perhaps it is an interesting story or legend based loosely on facts or even entirely made up, there are many possibilities but to suggest that a person resurrected is silly. And even if it happened (which it almost certainly did not) it does not suggest that a god exists even in the slightest bit
Romans 1:22 is the evil trick you can always use if you want to obstruct ANY rational argument that is not in your favor. It's purpose is to "protect" insecure believers from sensual arguments that contradict your purpose. That's dangerous as you can see in the USA today. The Evangelical Trump-base is not amenable to facts and even believes that Trump has been established by their god. Romans 13:1-7: "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience." www.haaretz.com/us-news/.premium-the-real-story-behind-the-nazi-establishment-s-use-of-romans-13-1.6194455
@Rolf Leseratz You just proved the veracity of Ro 1.22. Even if the material were lies it was a written account by someone else who wrote it. So how would you know if Paul really made any given statement?
@@wassilykandinsky4616 I'm a christian and I would be the first to agree with you. But it's far more complicated than that. I truly believe many who claim to be Christians are not. And there are many who are uninformed. On top of that they seek more mundane comforts from the likes of Trump and ignore the really important aspects of what we should have as a Presidential leader. In other words they compromise the presidency. I'm not partisan so I can say we didn't have very much to choose from. Think about that from the Democratic platform we endorse! Concerning the scripture you quoted here, you must look at the context of what it's saying. I hope you are not trying to say that it's condoning a blind endorsement. It is actually talking about living a good life. It condemns doing wrong in light of the powers that be. And that rulers keep the status quo. And (as much as I hate to say it) deserve our respect. And that we should actually pray for them. This is nothing new. The O.T. has graphic examples of how God uses evil rulers to chastise his people and then does away with them himself through other nations. At any rate we are held accountable to the law. It didn't mean any law. It's like I said had to do with good in the Christian context. Because there was a chance of rebelling this would've quashed any attempts at revolution. The reason being that Jesus is quote as saying in the gospel of John " my kingdom is not of this world, if it were my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders"... As a consequence these evil Jewish leaders are complicit with the Roman government crucifying Jesus which resulted in humanity's salvation from death by his resurrection. Thus believers are held to a higher standard and to be good citizens by mandate of that kingdom. This a nuanced tricky subject in the bible. Most frustrating would be slavery. But there are reasonable answers, most of all not to subvert the powers that be through violence. In the biblical scheme, if you did do something like that you would be fighting against God's will.
I was brought to Jesus and fought the devil every step of the way Jesus won! I’m free all worldly desires, thank you Jesus for the beautiful changes in our lives that know you ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for posting one of the greatest Biblical historians on this channel. Your approach of introducing the greatest scholars on both sides to popular culture, is a great service, to both theist and atheists alike. Thank you Cameron.
A christian could be forgiven for falling for such absurdity due to the coercive delusion they are afflicted with. I've been there myself. However, if an atheist were to find this "evidence" to be in any way compelling it would indicate they were a fool or fundamentally naive.
What is he talking about? Where are the evedance? That he is saying this? Who wrote what? When? What other sources at the time support the argument? There is nothing here... Just a guy talking about whatever he wants... Maybe I don't get it
What an amazing man! Very knowledgeable and seems to explain things in a simple manner that even I can understand :) May our Lord Jesus Christ bless you!
SOoooo encouraging. The more we investigate the resurrection evidence the more we should be assured of the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ. And yet... it is always a leap of faith... revealed by the Holy Spirit. THAT is still such a mystery to me. May the Lord continue to shine the light of truth in and through us in a dark & lost world. Blessings all, C.
@@Nicole-ky7ye Those who believe in God without seeing God are naive. Every "God" that humans have ever worshipped has never been seen.......Gods are a bit like alien space travellers , they only exist in peoples minds. At least aliens might turn up one day but Gods never will.
@@WildPhotoShooter Thats not true of Jesus. I know Jesus lived. He was real. I know he was crucified. We know His body was missing after He was crucified. Those are facts. We have witness testimony on seeing Him alive after his crucifixion. A belief so strong they willingly died for it when they could of said it was a lie to save themselves from painful deaths like being crucified upside down. It wasn't just those closes to Jesus that witnessed Him after His death but hundreds of people. People till this day still die for those beliefs. Jesus is who He said He was. You may think I am nieve and that's fine. I still hold to my faith. I don't need to see God to know Jesus is the Son of God, God incarnete. I believe He is who He said He is. Also just because I can't see Him now doesn't mean I haven't seen His helping hand in my life. Or witnessed something.
@@Nicole-ky7ye You don't know Jesus lived , you are only believing ONE book written many years AFTER the alleged events. The stories were also copied from other previous deity stories , the virgin birth, crucifixion and resurrection are the same as several other "god" stories thousands of years previously. Jesus was nothing new.
I remember the first time I caught the Holy Spirit at 11 years old.! It came over me like a mighty rushing wind.! A feeling I can’t explain.! The Holy Spirit is real, God is real and Jesus is real.!!
"Jesus" doesn't exist , that name was not even in the Bibles from 100AD to 1600AD ....The character that the Romans and the so called church founding fathers believed was "Mithra" a king of Persia whose the gospels portrayed to be...Mithra was born of a virgin, born on December 25th, The Star in the east with three wise men from the East ..were three astrologers priests for this god. Mithra who was baptized at 30, known as the light, the truth, and the life, his blood save people, performed miracles , he turned water into wine, walked on water, had 12 disciples, died and 3 days later resurrected and Mithra was worshiped on Sunday.

@Have Mercy to tell the people the truth...and NOT to believe a lie....Iam doing exactly what the prophet Ezekiel did in Chapter 3. Show me a Bible translation that contain the name "Jesus" in the Bible. That name never existed in the early Bible Manuscripts. The name was inserted in the 1600's by the king of England. My point is that name is "fictitious". Plus the messianic prophecies that Christianity claims are not found in the Tanakh commonly known as the Old Testament. Which messiah is Christianity believing in ? if the the dogma don't match any of the messianic prophecies in the OT. Jews believers of the Messiah were set apart by accepting the Messiah but they didn't have the NT. So they only used the OT or Tanakh to confirm the messianic prophecies. Where in the OT states specifically that the Messiah was going to be impregnated by God's spirit without using sexual relations by a Hebrew man? Instead,the Messianic prophecy says that the Messiah will come through the tribe of Judah if no man from the tribe of Judah impregnated his mother? Show me in the Tanakh or OT.
@Have Mercy first off, 'Jesus is not G-d" he is the Messiah ( anointed ) king of Israel successor of king David. if you want to believe that deception , its on you. The bottom line of the bottom is that G-d wants everyone to be saved but he wants everyone to come to the knowledge of the truth. Believing "deception" will not save people from judgment. People have believed a deceptive gospel that is not according to the prophets. Satan thrives capturing the minds of the unbelievers. 1Timothy 2: 3 "This is good, and it pleases God our Savior,who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth." Evil hearts follow deception and rejoice in unrighteousness. Believing in religious lies is evil before G-d and "arrogance " is also evil before G-d. People who don't love the truth will believe a lie...and G-d will send them a delusion to believe a lie. 2Thessa 2: 9-12 "The coming of the lawless one is based on Satan’s working, with all kinds of false miracles, signs, and wonders.and with every wicked deception among those who are perishing. They perish because they did not accept the love of the truth and so be saved.For this reason God sends them a strong delusion so that they will believe the lie,so that all will be condemned - those who did not believe the truth but delighted in unrighteousness."
@Have Mercy The Protestant Trinitarian doctrine "triune gods" in one being is the same thing like the Catholic triune god. The only difference is in the philosophy being used. The protestants churches teaches it like this: The father , the Son, the Holy Spirit are co-equal, co-eval, god the father, god the son and god the Holy Spirit ( 3 gods in one) also called in three manifestations or forms ( not three persons like Catholics) manifested god-incarnate on the flesh. The protestant churches use a philosophy called "Pantheism" as oppose to Catholics, they used a different philosophical approach . Theologically speaking the protestant or Catholic trinitarian doctrine of ( three gods in one) does not match the words of Christ himself or the Prophets. Read John 17: 3 and John 20: 17 ; Exodus 20:3,4 Deut. 7: 6,7, 11 The doctrine of the Trinity is invented by the Romans specifically the Emperor Constantine who inserted his Mithraism ( Roman & Greek Old Religion) paganistic beliefs in the Abrahamic faith ( by forgery in the Bible through the Vulgate ) to expand his Rome Empire in the entire world with his new religion forcing people to convert including the Jews who got murdered by Christianity. The immaculate conception doctrine is not found in the Messianic prophecies in the Old Testament. Where in the Old Testament was predicted that the God of Jacob will impregnate a woman without sexual relations by a man to bring a demigod as the king of Israel?????. or even worse, God himself will put himself as a 'semen" in the woman's womb?? That's ridiculous. That would contradict what God predicted through his prophets as to how the Messiah supposed to fulfill the Davinic Covenant. You need to read Psalms and isaiah. Actually the messianic prophecy predicted that the Hebrew Messiah will come through the flesh of David or lineage and the tribe of Judah lineage. This can be only done through the patrilineal side not mother's side. Explain this huge messianic discrepancy. This pagan doctrine of God impregnating a mortal woman to bring a demigod as his Son is nothing but Roman-Greek religion not Hebraic.
@Titanium Zone bro, I am a Sephardic Jew...you think i am going to drink the cool aid of Christianity? NEVER. Christianity was murdering Jews to convert into Christianity up until 1948. I don't think you know..that "Jesus or Iesous" was never in the Bible prior the 1600's Bible translations. why? So for 1600 years the Bible scholars were wrong or did not know the meaning of the name??? LOL Please ..the name of the Messiah has always been the same ...you don't need Translation of it. His name is mostly accepted as "Yeshuah"his Hebrew name in English Translation.
Jesus Love is uncomparable. One day I was walking towards the forest and stood under a lantern to read the Bible. I read Psalms 110,1. My heart instantly believed completely in Jesus as the Christ and next to me was suddenly a huge presence of light, who put his right hand on my back. I felt so comforted and started singing. He regularly spoke to me, but I didnt hear anything from him for a whole year now. I just want to believe more often. He is still calling me to follow him, I guess. Have a great time folks! :) God is good.
God works in amazing ways to grab our attention. we need to acknowledge our sin & accept His gift of forgiveness, accept Him as our personal Saviour, keep talking to Him, follow where He leads & share this same great news!

The gospel is found in 1 Corinthians 15 1-4. All sin is forgiven for literally ALL People. Meaning nobody is going to hell for sin today but rather for unrighteousness because they never believed the message. If you say people still go to hell for their SINS SPECIFICALLY then you don’t probably believe the gospel. I’m going to give this in detail all of our sins the WORLD’S not just believers the world’s sins are not imputed (charged against us)because God reconciled the world unto himself. 2 Corinthians 5:19 says "To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation." Our sin was nailed to the cross since Christ was made to be sin for us 2 Corinthians 5:21 "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." If Christ was made to be sin and we compare this verse you will see our sins were nailed to the CROSS of Jesus Colossians 2:14 "Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;" So our sin was nailed to the cross then Christ shed his BLOOD giving us forgiveness. Forgiveness means granted relief of payment see this in the Merriam Webster dictionary or see this example here Luke 7:42 "And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?" See so when you have nothing to pay you are forgiven! Hebrews 9:22 "And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission." Remission is the cancellation of a debt automatically connecting with forgiveness throughout all of history when blood was shed God forgave sins. Next, Christ shed his blood at the cross making peace Colossians 1:20 “And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven." So at the cross Christ shed his blood giving us remission/ forgiveness granting us relief of payment of our sins Ephesians 1:7 "In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;" So you see we have forgiveness "according to the riches of his grace" we are in the dispensation of grace (God’s time period of Grace) Ephesians 1:3 "If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:" In this dispensation we are granted relief of payment and don’t go to hell for sins that’s already been paid for. You can’t pay for something twice. The wages of sin is death. Romans 6:23 " For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Since Jesus rose again we are no longer in our sins 1 Corinthians 15:17: "And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins." I’m going to end this here. The gospel confirms our payment for sin was made through Jesus’s DEATH at the cross and he rose again leaving our sins in the grave he resurrected without our sins. 1 Corinthians 15 1-4 "Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:" If you believe this message that How that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, and was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures(the scriptures I put in this message) you are saved. Once you believe this you are Ephesians 1:13 "In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise," Just believe it’s like drinking a cup of water. Your soul is in your hands.
21:39 I totally agree that JESUS has all scars from HIS Sacrifice on the Cross for us, this is something GOD gave me back around 2004. This is also why I think people did not recognize HIM at first. For all Eternity we will look upon HIM, and see the love HE has for us.
Gosh, I love this. So down to earth, so well researched... He's showing the resurrection is certainly, nearly inarguably, *"more probable than not."* And then he exposes the fact that even when confronted with the truth and facts, most people simply don't want to believe, and hence give up the idea that they're "free to sin without consequence" or that their family or friends are when truly, no one is. That flesh, man... I pray everyone can break the bindings and hold it has on them...
"the fact that even when confronted with the truth and facts, most people simply don't want to believe, and hence give up the idea that they're "free to sin without consequence"" Christians often pretend this is a fact. When I ask them for evidence, it turns out that it is just what Christians want to believe about non-believers.
Some proofs.... * 500 Eyewitnesses * Roman Soldiers who guarded the tomb.... Their very lives were at stake if they let Jesus escape. * The Gigantic Stone sealing the tomb.....took multiple soldiers to move it into place to seal the tomb. Literally ZERO PROBABILITY the Roman soldiers would not have noticed disciples/others coming in the middle of the night to "unseal the tomb" by moving said rock, and to "steal Jesus' body away". * The facts were that when the Roman soldiers awoke, the stone was moved. Jesus was gone. * Multiple non-Christian sources write of Jesus' existence and His Displays of Power/ Miracles, including Josephus, Pliny the Elder, etc. Just Google it. * Since it was authenticated that Jesus did amazing feats including healing many people in different cities, it was also authenticated that He raised Lazarus from the dead. Has this event not been accurate, all the people and especially the Sanhedrin and Pharisees would have lain this "ridiculous nonsense" to rest and squashed this rumor. However as it happened instead, they grew INTENSELY OUTRAGED that He performed these miracles, to the point they conspired to KILL HIM. WHICH THEY DID. However Jesus chose to lay His life down, instead of escaping to another city, country, etc. * So if Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, and this was not disproven by the laity, clergy, Sanhedrin, etc., then it stands to reason logically that He had the Power of Life and Death. Therefore any one who can raise others would by all probability have same said power to raise himself. * Extreme amount of copies of New Testament, verifying its authenticity, versus copies of Homer's works. * The testimony of the disciples who died for said testimony of Jesus....this is an amazing point because why would any person willingly be a martyr for something stupid, ridiculous, nonsensical, or a flat out lie. Probability, 0%. * Further, we have resurrections EVERY DAY in America. It's called SHOCK PADDLES. Common knowledge that if you go to the hospital and have a heart attack, the doctors may try to "shock you back to life". Yet people think nothing of it. We are talking flat-lined, technically dead individuals. Yet, we are able to bring LIFE and a heartbeat back into their body, with an electrical force. This wasn't invented in Jesus' time, yet he had this POWER in His hands, even His VOICE, to not only heal, but to raise back to life/heartbeat. If we have this power today, and God has allowed us to have this "power" in the medical field through heightened technology, there's no reason this power wasn't available through Jesus.
@@sweetsunnydaygirl You seem to believe everything your read in the NT, and you sound as though you have been to an "Apologetics for Beginners class". Just a few points. The number of copies of the NT does not verify its truthfulness. There are thousands of copies of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", but it is still fiction. (Interesting that you compare it with Homer, which is also fiction.) And nearly all your points depend on believing the story you get in the NT. Track down the disciples (from primary sources, not books of martyrs) and find out how, when, and where they died. Then try to find out what they believed when they died. There is very little reliable information about them. You will discover that this story of them dying for the belief that Jesus rose from the dead is just a lie that has been told you. Read what Josephus and Pliny wrote. Then read academic discussions about it.
@mldfry it's not just in the New Testament. look for it, & you'll see a lot of 1st Century testimonies by Romans & Jews about what happened there & the apostles & stuff.
@@bluewater3783 sry for not listing Tacitus, the unadulterated version of Josephus' writings, Pliny the Younger, etc, but sending you this video, because it shows the references & the texts, which is better than a long windy answer.
are Tacitus; Lucien; Thallus; Suetonius; Pliny the Younger; Mara bar-Serapian; the Babylonian Talmud; Celsius; the non-adulterated version of Josephus' writings all nonexistent?
Antony Flew: Richard Carrier described him as *"one of the most renowned atheists of the 20th century"* . But in 2004 he believed in the existence of God the Intelligent Creator of the universe -said: "I had to go where the *evidence* leads.".... “The *evidence* for Jesus' resurrection is better than for claimed miracles in any other religion."
"Flew retracted his statement that a deity or a "super-intelligence" was the only good explanation for the origin of life and the complexity of nature: "I now realise that I have made a fool of myself by believing that there were no presentable theories of the development of inanimate matter up to the first living creature capable of reproduction." But a few years later, well into his 80s at that point, he apparently reversed himself yet again. The “God” that Mr. Flew claimed to believe in is not the God actually worshiped by anybody. At most, it’s a stand-in for “whatever caused the universe to exist.” As such, I find it odd that theists of any sort would look to Mr. Flew’s “conversion” as meaning much of anything, and it’s especially odd (if not outright deceptive) that a Christian would claim that he somehow turned to Christ. Mr. Flew was quite old at the time of his “conversion” and the fact that he changed his position on numerous occasions indicates that he may not have been of the soundest mind at the time. The fact that Mr. Flew did not bother to actually keep up with latest scientific discoveries and theories regarding the origin of the universe and the complexity of life is another indication that he was no longer thinking clearly at the time of his “conversion.” My lack of belief in God has nothing to do with what any particular influential atheist has said on the matter, so it really doesn’t matter to me one way or another when Mr. Flew changed his mind. I don’t feel “betrayed” by this in the least."

I love Cameron, and I love how God is using this man to spread the truth. But dude really needs to not interrupt people in interviews. I would also be eager and passionate to ask guys questions on topics like this that I love, but articulate and cohesive communicaton is key :)
Bull. Feelings have nothing to do with reality or truth. Do you believe in Santa or the tooth fairy? Singing songs in church that make you feel good are not good reasons to believe in some fantasy God. Grow up and get real.
All Believers in other Gods assert the exact same thing, so either all Gods are real, or you are all feeling something else completely. The real truth is that the feeling that you experience is from the chemicals released from your emotions.
About 5 years ago I was on the phone in my apt talking to a friend with big health problems. Suddenly Jesus appeared like flesh and blood next to me sitting on my bed, and looked as if he were looking at me from downwards and upwardsI was in such awe so amazed so blown away Jesus?IWas He actually here?? It was just beyond amazing .I told my friend Jesus is here! .His eyes were unfathomable luminous shining with limitless love smiling at me. Beautiful eyes Love that envelops you like a warm blanket of peace white robe and beard and not super long hair dark brown and dark complected jewish.The most .incredible experience of my life!❤️
But according to the Bible they didn't even recognize him at first. "Luke 24:15 As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; 16 but they were kept from recognizing him." Such stories are easily forged and very willingly circulated by desperate whisful believers who suffer mightily from the heavy loss. The gosples are very sophisticatedly drafted in order to convey the underlying sense. It's like a tabernacle containing a valuable relic. But it's not about factual truth, it's more about a deeper truth.
@@wassilykandinsky4616 they didn't recognize him because while he was getting crucified his face and body was so beat up . So when he came back to life his is now in a immortal body.

@Schatzen Liebe It says so in your bible, but you cannot use the bible to validate the bible. That is called 'circular reasoning,' "the bible is true because the bible says its true." You understand that will not stand in an argument, do you not?

In 1961 at the age of 7 I had been I’ll for quite sometime, and no one knew what was wrong with me. One day I was lying down on a day bed and I called to my dad telling him that I’d just seen Jesus and I was going to live in Heaven. The next thing I remember was a ride in an ambulance. The surgeon saved my life by about 30 minutes. He discovered that my appendix had reversed through my large intestine, similar to a tapeworm, and had it got to my colon I would have died. All of that happen a long time ago, but the truth is, I had an operation which saved my life as a result of meeting with Jesus. That has held me in a solid faith and relationship with God throughout my life. Thank you Jesus for meeting with me.
Love you Gary, thank you so much for grounding my post skepticism of the extra-biblical evidence in the Shroud of Turin. That is truly an artifact and true relic. Blew my mind and I never heard of the Shroud, not until 2 years AFTER I accepted Christ Jesus as LORD from my ex-atheistic world view.
Sorry to burst your bubble my friend but the Turin shroud is a Roman Catholic relic which has nothing to do with the death, burial & resurrection of Jesus. First of all, when you read the resurrection account in scripture & study the burial methods of the Jewish people of that time, you’ll find that the body was wrapped in long bandage type strips with a napkin covering the face. Very close to how the Egyptians buried there dead. This shroud is one piece of material which the bible speaks nothing about. Therefore read the account yourself instead of trusting in relics. The Roman Catholic Church has supposed to have the very nails that nailed Christ to the cross. But can pass these nails of to people as relics for sale. So they have enough nails to shoe every horse in Italy.
stephen mcauley I did read it for myself. Have you looked into the Shroud? Genuinely? Have you ever been able to consider how an artist would even leave no brush strokes on any of the fibers, and could line up the BACK of the man in the Shroud with the front with no bleed through of the instrument and inking etc, what ever it is you assume. And you’re lying as the scripture clearly states it was a *sheet* of fine linen cloth. Not strips. Who is paying you? Lol ...teasing, hopefully. No crisis actors or murking up the blogospheres, I know it pays well. Obvious apologies if you’re not about that life ... But I do believe the Catholic/Universalistic Church did hijack Christdom long ago. Have a blessed one. Jesus is LORD God and he has risen. Risen indeed.
@@hilarioushen4164 The Shroud is a 3D projection on a 2D piece of cloth. Scientists have speculated that the only way that such an image could have been made is a burst of light close to a billion volts. That was not possible in the middle ages and is not possible today. The samples that were tested in the 1980s were contaminated. There were repairs done to the cloth as well. They have also found pollen from the middle east on the cloth and that particular weave of fabric was made in Palestine at the beginning of the first millenium. When they finally do an uncontaminated test it will show that it is the real deal.
@@jlouis4407 Well done and well researched. Not a drop of paint on it either. Anatomists have also confirmed that the flow patterns made by the blood would correlate with those from a crucified victim.
I just got to see this today, to the person who's going through the depressed state pray, always remember Satan is no match for yahweh and I'll pray as well. Love you just hold on
God created Satan. God made a bet with satan to destroy Job's life. Why look to God. He is a monster not interested in you or your problems. Depression requires good counselling and loving people around to support you.
@@danedwards931 what’s funny about this comment is that is what satan wants you to believe.. you are essentially siding yourself with the devil. God indirectly created satan yes, but it was lucifer who chose to sin thus becoming satan. God’s angels all have free will just like us, so lucifer choosing to sin against God out of jealousy was his choice to make. As for Job, God allowed satan to very temporarily cause havoc in his life to prove to satan that job was a man of God, not just because he was blessed with riches- which is what satan’s argument was to ask God for permission to test job’s faith. When Job had passed the test God restored everything he had immediately. God loves you you just have to accept him. They say pride comes before the fall and that is exactly what happened with lucifer- his own pride and jealousy of The Almighty was his downfall. John 3:16 KJV 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Never had a NDE, but I have experienced the Paranormal...As a New Christian, I have had a 'Spiritual' Attacks & Visitations. The Spirit Realm is Real, Angels & Demons are Real! I've had others along side of myself, that have witnessed these things for themselves...
What an enthralling interview! Dr. Habermas brings such an intriguing blend of historical analysis and philosophical insight to the table when discussing the Resurrection of Jesus. It's like unlocking a centuries-old mystery with a modern perspective. The mention of NDEs and the Shroud of Turin adds an element of mystery and wonder to the conversation, making you ponder the uncharted territories of human experience and belief. Love the book recommendations!
The shroud also is 3 dimensional quality. From what I remember, scientist has determined the the amount of ultraviolet light/power does not exist at this time to be replicated. "The face cloth" of Oviada in Spain is a perfect match with blood stains on the head on the shroud.
The blood type of the Shroud and face cloth are also a match. The clothes are of the same period, and flora evident on both places them definitely in the area of Jerusalem at the time Jesus lived.
I can testify! I had what I can best describe as an NDE type of experience and have been studying them since. Long story short it was "OVERWHELMING LOVE" I was given! And far,far,FAR more real than this physical reality! And it was Jesus that took me there to "THE LIGHT"!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
@Michael Dennis Hello Mr Dennis I think I’ve spoken with you on another thread, I can’t recall, but I would like to hear your experience with Jesus Christ. Would you mind to share it with me/us?
@@--4729 I was sitting on the couch back in 2007 and a sort of porthole opened up and I saw who I believe to be Yashua/Jesus in some type of vortex. I believe He was beconing me to get behind Him. I saw this on more than one occasion that day. That night I was in bed and believe I was sleeping and have no idea how I saw or remember this. But He came into my room "I'm tearing up now reliving this" and knelt next to me and put His hand on my head. Instantly I was in a different realm and more awake and conscious than I've ever been here in this life. I was standing before a cross that was "ETERNAL" and was like a monument. Like our veitnam wall only I knew this monument was eternal and would "never" perish! I remember vividly the feelings and thoughts I had were like WTF is going on here!? The next thing I remember was the highlight of the experience and highlight of my life. I was all the sudden standing before "God's glory/The light"! It was soooooo much brighter than the sun but it was different also! IT WAS PURE LOVE! And I remember feeling soooooo unworthy to be this close to it! And as I thought and felt that way it shot out wave after wave of pure light&love towards me! It was paralyzing and OVERWHELMING to say the least! I immediately bent over putting my right hand on my stomach and the left hand up in front of the light pleading with it to stop! Saying okay,okay,okay I get it,I get it,please stop! All with the BIGGEST smile on my face I've ever had or though possible! Its not that it was bad but WAY,WAY,WAY tooooooooo damb good! The light made it clear to me without one audible word that I am loved beyond my wildest dreams. And that I came from it and "WILL" go back to it and NEVER need to doubt it! After that I remember walking back to what looked and felt like a couranteen/prison with Jesus. Not a word was spoken but I knew instinctively that I had to go back and it wasn't time for me to be where I just was permanently yet!😉 I laid down on one of the 2 bunks in this cell and laid my head back down. Then as Jesus was leaving the room I picked my head up and just said "WHO ARE YOU" more OVERWHELMED than ive ever been! The next morning when I woke my body was vibrating and pulsating like never ever before! I had a physical HUDGE SMILE stuck to my face for almost 2 weeks that I could not get rid of if I tried! I could not speak either for atleast 10 days! I could only mumble because I was still SOOOOOOOO OVERWHELMED! Listen I have experimented with several drugs in my life and have had some very cool trips but "NOTHING COULD EVER COME EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE TO THIS EXSPERIENCE"! I wasn't to happy with this world before this experience but now it is definitely just a big hot pile of crap to me now and "I can't wait to go home"!🤗 This ain't it guys! I know there is an awful lot of confusion in the world today about who Yashua/Jesus was and is! "Who do men say that I am"? "Now who do you say that I am"? I say He is the son of God/God in the flesh! And no one comes to the father except through Him. He is the narrow gate and what He did on that cross He did for me! And you if you will only "TRUST" in him? He is called faithful and true for a reason guys! MUCH,MUCH,MUCH LOVE to you all! Thanks for letting me share!🙏
@@michaeldennis3240 Wow!!! Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful and wonderful experience with the whole world! Ain’t God sooo good to us! I had a very similar experience! Salvation of Jesus Christ is Free, Wonderful, Loving, Spiritual, Tangible, Unforgettable and Everlasting! That is so awesome to get to know your Salvation Experience! I love to hear how Jesus gives His Grace! And God does have a sense of humor, maybe He got tired of playing with the dinosaurs in His sandbox? 🤔😁 Someone mentioned dinosaurs in another post. 😉 Anyway I too saw/experienced things, the Holy Spirit right before He entered my heart and being FILLED to the point of not being able to withstand it! It was like my chest was getting bigger and bigger and bigger and I was holding my chest and I it was so overwhelming with a pressure from LOVE & JOY!!! I had never felt such LOVE & I was laughing with JOY!!! So much LOVE & JOY! Just overflowing with it! I saw the old me get thrown away! Yes, I saw me, a different me, I knew that it was the old me standing on a street corner, I was dirty and filthy and then all of a sudden the old me shot up in the sky, angling away from me and I heard a voice speak, not audibly, but I still heard it but in me “As far as the East is from the West.” Or more like it, the voice was imbedded or impressed upon me. And I knew I was saved! He told my heart! I did get to see other things, but I feel like those were kinda reserved for me cause of what I was taught/told. One thing I do want to share is that when I got saved I was in a bedroom all by myself and when I opened the door I could feel how awful the world was! I almost hit my knees cause it was overwhelming suffrage and grief and loss. I grabbed for the door frame and that voice was behind me but in me and He said “This is but a very small portion.” And then it was gone and Love & Joy overwhelmed me again and so I went out. He is still with me! Thank you again for sharing your personal and wonderful relationship with Christ Jesus and God Bless You and Yours!
@@--4729 WOW thats cool brother!🤗 Yeah the feeling of well being and perfect love was "OVERWHELMING"!🤗 Well thanks for moving me to share that in detail. Everyone I know got a copy of it this morning and I pray that they will all believe/trust Him because of it!🙏🤙
@@michaeldennis3240 I pray that they accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Thank you again for sharing cause Iron Sharpens Iron. God Bless You and Yours.
The fact that we have to debate whether Jesus rose from the dead or not is evidence that he didn't. Like if you are God incarnate wouldn't you just make it clear beyond the shadow of a doubt?
He has. And God our Holy Father has said that His Ways are not our ways and His Thoughts are not our thoughts. He is so far above everything, and He knows everything. We cannot and should not hold Him to human standards and ways of thinking.
Faith- the substance of things hoped for, not things seen. Many Bible references teach us about set our minds on things above not on things on the earth. I love this man's stories that he has seen the data also
My heart has been touched with pre-tribulation rapture. After covid, my heart started to yearn for Christ and the wrath of the lamb. I feel home. I fall to my knees and pray like Christ did, I pray in the name of Jesus while I seek the One and only God. As I see churches bend a knee to government, I feel people are seeking god without the church because its captured and doing the governments bidding, perverting scripture to fit the world. I want to be home if God will not turn me away. I dont deserve heaven but I do pray I have a place with god. This world is evil. I want evil to be dealt with and there's only one who can deal with it unlike humans know how.
I hear you and feel the same way. Be encouraged God knows you by name and His divine purposes for you, is not over. Take one moment and one day at a time, and when God is ready, he will open his arms and take you to be home with him or take you up in the rapture! What Christ would have you to do, is to show his love and pray for the saved and the unsaved. Pray also that the church will not compromise their love or grow cold for Jesus 🙏🏼🌟🌟✝️😇
❤IT amazes and saddens me the number of so called Christians who cannot SEE, BELIEVE and WITNESS the miraculous SHROUD AND GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, JOHN 3:16...But then Jesus said, "I come to give sight to the blind, and to blind those who say WE SEE! Their PRIDE allows satan to fool and God to blind them!
"Jesus" doesn't exist , that name was not even in the Bibles from 100AD to 1600AD ....The character that the Romans and the so called church founding fathers believed was "Mithra" a king of Persia whose the gospels portrayed to be...Mithra was born of a virgin, born on December 25th, The Star in the east with three wise men from the East ..were three astrologers priests for this god. Mithra who was baptized at 30, known as the light, the truth, and the life, his blood save people, performed miracles , he turned water into wine, walked on water, had 12 disciples, died and 3 days later resurrected and Mithra was worshiped on Sunday. IS THIS A MERE COINCIDENCE THAT MATCHES THE SO CALLED "JESUS" DESCRIPTION???? Don't believe me? Watch the video link. Interestingly enough, the other pagan nations had also known Messiahs with the same description attributes like Mithra like Horus Egyptian god 3000BC, ,Attis from Greece 1200BC, Krishna 900BC, Dionysus Greece 500BC, Tammuz Babylon 500BC, Janus worshiped as Apollo Rome 30AD known as father and Son duality as One, represented January as the beginning. etc. Google these names and you will find out that Christianity is a FRAUD. EVERYTHING THAT IS DESCRIBED ON THESE SO CALLED PAGAN MESSIAHS IS NOT THE MESSIAH DESCRIBED IN THE OT OR HEBREW MESSIAH. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8Tc6LE2aBec.html
Enjoyed the video! What’s really awesome and I think one of the greatest proofs that Jesus was God in the flesh and was resurrected from the dead is the fact that 2000 years later we’re still talking about it even though satan tried his hardest to cover up the resurrection from day 1! And if anyone really wanted to know the truth, confess your sins to Jesus, repent, and believe He is who He says He is and you will know the truth then because God Himself will come live in your heart, love you, forgive your sins, and teach you the truth about all of it!!
Amen! :) 😃 Good Point! And as God in the flesh, John 1, Jesus of course has power over life and death, being God the Son :) So of course He had the ability and choice to lay it down and take it up again. "I AM the Resurrection and the Life." - Jesus. 🛐☦️🕎😃😃😃
You MUST be baptized as Christ commanded too. Please do not argue against the truth. The biggest lie the devil ever spread was that you just have to "believe" and you don't need to be baptized because it is a work. Being baptized is a passive act. It is DONE TO YOU, you do not do it. Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38 and on and on. Do not be an agent of the devil by denying the scriptures. Thank God for your testimony and preach the word!!!
@@thedynamicsolo4232 Yes, we should be baptized because we all have the chance and the opportunity to be baptized and make our public confession of faith. But it’s clear that the criminal on the cross next to Jesus went to heaven as Jesus being God in the flesh and God never lies told him that he would be with Jesus in paradise. But it’s obvious that the criminal never had the opportunity to be baptized. Him believing that Jesus was who He said He was is what saved him. And if we get to a point in the final days where people don’t have the time to be baptized, yet they also come to faith in Christ at the last moment just like the criminal on the cross did, there’s no reason to not believe those people won’t be saved as well because God is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
I would like to add one more thing on the subject of being baptized. We aren’t saved when we get baptized. But rather, we are saved by God when we “believe” that Jesus is the Son of God, the Messiah, the savior of the world who God sent to be the perfect sacrifice for the sin of the world. Jesus who knew no sin, had the sin of the whole world placed upon Him so we could be forgiven of our sins, be born again by the power of God through the Holy Spirit, and be returned to right standing with God by the blood of Jesus being placed over our heart. So we are saved by faith and faith alone. Being baptized is something we absolutely should do because Jesus was baptized and God’s plan for us is to be baptized and make that public confession of faith. But being baptized is “not” what saves us. God is who saves us when the Holy Spirit comes into our heart the moment we “believe” that Jesus is the Son of God and we ask Jesus to be the Lord of our life. We are saved by faith at that exact moment. Baptism is a righteous act that we perform because it’s part of God’s holy plan of salvation. Baptism does not save us, but rather shows that we have been saved by faith in Jesus. Since we have been saved by faith in Jesus, we are then led to be baptized. Baptism merely shows that we have been saved by God. If we weren’t saved, then we wouldn’t/shouldn’t be getting baptized. Salvation is by faith, not by works or obedience or because we did this right or that right. No, salvation is by faith alone.
But you don't have to have a near death experience or die to see or hear Jesus.....He wants you to know Hi only wants you to accept Him and welcome Him into your life....He will be there ❤....Trust Him....He will be there ❤️

Oh yes perhaps he wanted you to hit bottom before revealing his plans to you, PERHAPS YOU MIGHT PRAISE THE DOCTORS, NURSES AND MAYBE THE EMTs. I am always STUNNED how people praise a FAKE, USELESS GOD and ignore the true heroes whose skill and dedication REALLY SAVED THEM. As usual JESUS WAS A DAY LATE AND A DOLLAR SHORT. Go thank the people who saved you and tell JESUS to go take a hike.
I genuinely wanted to believe with all my heart. I invested a lot of time and money into the church and fully committed myself to the cause because I believed I was doing the right thing. Unfortunately, during that time, I encountered people like Dr. Gary Habermas who made me feel like "those out there" didn't understand. Eventually, I realized that fundamentalist Christians always think in terms of "us versus them," and I had to leave that kind of Christianity behind. Today, I no longer believe.
I was the same way, and actually just yesterday I almost became athiest again..but the way the world is so insanely accurate to revaltions and the miracles I've seen its hard not to belive
I can say this with certainty. Anyone that honestly searches for God will find him. It's up to us, free will. If you die without ever knowing God, it's your own fault.
With certainty? OK, give us some actual good evidence for a god that doesn't require we already believe. Since you are so certain, you must have such good evidence that it should convince almost everyone.
@Hume Plight you know there’s evidence of the Bible being accurate right. You know they’ve found scholars of og Bible, also all the ppl in the Bible are real. They found evidence of the disciplines being real. Everything in our universe comes back to God. And yes God works in the spiritual bc He’s God
@Hume Plight yes there is. They found evidence of the crucifixion, again there’s records of the ppl in the Bible, they found scholars, they found evidence of Noah’s Ark, again everything in our universe matches up with the Bible I could send you a link of a vid explaining some things if you want
@@jollyandwaylo the fact of some evidence convincing most people is not possible. Many people arguing about there being no god, don't want to believe. Or are actually mad at god. For a very long time, the earth was believed to be flat. Even though, in the early Old Testament, it is said to be a sphere that revolves around the sun, and is free floating. You have to want to believe, and actively study and search. That is free will
@@TexasBoxer13 There is the problem in a simple line, 'you have to want to believe'. I don't have to want to believe in gravity or germ theory of disease or any number of other facts. If you have to want to believe, it is likely to be just a pile of garbage.
I loved how he said Christian’s don’t have any evidence to stand on for Jesus because they don’t know. I’m going to be a Christian who knows and I will study all of this
Prove it. All you have is faith, false hope, wishful thinking in some fantasy God. Do you believe in Santa or the tooth fairy? Why not. no evidence. Wake up people. Religion is man made. Heaven and hell are not real. Prayers do not work because there is no God to hear them.

@@paganphil100 let me ask you grasshopper, from whence does the wind come and where does it go? But you feel its cooling effect on a hot breezy day do you not?
No evidence required. The 11 apostles and numerous disciples of Jesus were willing to die but did not reject the message of salvation.... what more evidence fo we need?
@Dexter O'Shields Listen few are willing to die for truth.. but many will die for a lie they told? If what Peter preached was a lie then it was only a matter for him to say oops I goofed up and return back to his fishing business. But this apostle of Jesus died for what he preached. He says "For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty."
@Dexter O'Shields The fact which is true even today based on human nature is people will not die for a lie..... here we say several hundred have died based on even secular evidence. But if we want to question the evidence itself then we need to apply the same logic to everything in the past. We seem to have put things together based on some fragments of the past...The whole idea about evolution.. story of creation... all three Abrahamic Faith's... existence of the prophets of God.. ancient kings and warriors and tribes and kingdoms.etc can all be questioned.
@Dexter O'Shields Lol Dexter...let's move on.... to where the Truth? "Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus." But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge, So you see Peter was asked not to speak and he was let go... but Peter would rather listen to God than humans or "recant" and be spared. Christanity has lasted 2000 years and will continue till the end of ages. Salvation is still available but then comes judgement. Now where have you shown that people die for a lie? what evidence have you provided that their lives would not be spared? but sure...lets move on. :)
It does prove they weren’t lying, they really believed what they said. Which doesn’t prove Christianity but it does give skeptics a problem because these are the original followers of Jesus saying He rose and all other accounts of the life of Christ come much later then the Gospel.
So let me get this right. Jesus is cruising the docks around Galilee. He comes upon 11 fisherman having their taxes done. Says "Hey Guys if you quit your jobs, dump your wives and abandon your children I will tell you stories and preform magic tricks" WOW they all jump up and follow him. Very plausible. Then later on these illiterate uneducated fisherman write the gospels in "Literary Greek" I believe I believe.
Jesus speaks to me everyday, our last conversation, he told me my duty on this earth has been completed, and now he wants me to do whatever it takes to come to him. I will be going to the kingdom of heaven very soon.
YOU WANT THE HISTORICAL FACTS? IAM NOT TROLLING OK "Jesus" doesn't exist , that name was not even in the Bibles from 100AD to 1600AD ....The character that the Romans and the so called church founding fathers believed was "Mithra" a king of Persia whose the gospels portrayed to be...THE SO CALLED FOUNDING FATHERS AND EMPERORS MADE UP THE "JESUS' STORY, USING THE HEBREW FAITH TO SWAP IT OVER OR DISGUISED WITH Mithra WHO was born of a virgin, immaculate conception , born on December 25th, The Star in the east with three wise men from the East ..were three astrologers priests for this god. Mithra who was baptized at 30, known as the light, the truth, and the life, his blood save people, performed miracles , he turned water into wine, walked on water, had 12 disciples, died and 3 days later resurrected and Mithra was worshiped on Sunday. IS THIS A MERE COINCIDENCE THAT MATCHES THE SO CALLED "JESUS" DESCRIPTION???? by the way, below the Structure of the St Peter Basilica church building in Rome ( where Christianity supposedly started) when the Pope is , there is another temple for Mithra underground whom they really worship in Secret for 2,000 years. NO wonder why the Romans and so called church founding fathers hated the Jews and accused them of heretics and murdered them and destroyed Jerusalem in 70AD . They didn't want to leave no evidence. We tried to warn the World about this big deception. Don't believe me? Watch the video link. Interestingly enough, the other pagan nations had also known Messiahs with the same description attributes like Mithra like Horus Egyptian god 3000BC, ,Attis from Greece 1200BC, Krishna 900BC, Dionysus Greece 500BC, Tammuz Babylon 500BC, Janus worshiped as Apollo Rome 30AD known as father and Son duality as One, represented January as the beginning. etc. Google these names and you will find out that Christianity is a FRAUD. EVERYTHING THAT IS DESCRIBED ON THESE SO CALLED PAGAN MESSIAHS IS NOT THE MESSIAH DESCRIBED IN THE OT OR HEBREW MESSIAH. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8Tc6LE2aBec.html
One thing I come to realize is no matter what you believe like it or not you can't change or remove what Heavenly Father has put into each one of us. Now we just have to decide where we want to go.
Yahshua did resurrect and so he did come this was the 2nd time he came in the flesh, the first time he was manifest and walked with Moses, he Yahshua now comes to heart and mind of man when we beleive the report of the true gospel of the kingdom, which is the death, burial and resurrection of Yahshua the messiah, and tge creation speaks to us daily through manifestations of death burial and resurrection proving the things written of him, Halleluyah
The gospels show that Christ was seen, touched, he ate, he was spoken with, and that He spoke, appeared in several situations with different groups of people, between the crucifixion and the ascension. The ascension was witnessed, as documented by Luke in the first chapter of Acts 1. Also, I have experienced what Jesus is willing to do for somebody who is willing to humbly call upon Him. I know what Jesus did for me in August 1984.
This was a fantastic interview. I appreciate this man and all the hard work he has put in through the years. Giving us a way to bridge conversations that otherwise would be harder to create.
@Richard Fox Way to take the cheap way out... You can have fun parsing words. The message was of inspiration not to mention of building up. But if you only know how to tear down, you will reap what you sew.
@Richard Fox I never said faith was bad, and I never said "I" took anything from the interview. I merely said it was of inspiration. on top of building up. So, I myself was doing my part of building up those of whom call Jesus Savior. Remember that we each have a differing function as part of the body of Messiah. My role may not be the same as yours and his is not the same as mine. We need to do the good works and build each other up as iron sharpens iron. With much love, Shalom to you and yours.
My father had a NDE, he died and while the doctors tried to revive him, he was on the celling, he observed a conversation between the doctors and nurses and he saw a nurse who had dropped a tray of instruments.
@@tornay131 I’m not sure about it proving God, but I’ve had a similar experience. Not quite near death but pretty close and life threatening, and I saw myself in third person when it happened as if my soul had left my body. It’s definitely a real phenomenon. I was actually closer to death shortly after this experience but I was passed out and my organs were getting to a point where they were almost failing. But my point earlier was this person isn’t saying it proves God but that they merely went through NDE so why bother them?
There’s a lot of stories yes it’s funny how there’s atheists and agnostics watching this video more than Christians, it’s like they’re all searching for the truth because there is a void inside of them that searches for their Creator‘s, LOL
Greg Roberts exactly! Their soul and spirit man are searching for the something, and they don’t realize it’s the creator. Ravi Zacharias says the number one thing all young people are searching for is TRUTH.
The usual confusion between "stories" and "evidence" Habermas like others will claim the gospels are true and then come to the conclusion that since they are true then the resurrection has occurred A parallel would be claiming that the Cinderella story is true and therefore a fairy godmother turned a pumpkin into a golden carriage, mice into horses, a rat into a coachman, and lizards into footmen. In both cases this would be the best explanation for the story.. But all this does is show that the story is internally consistent (most good stories are) and NOT that what the story depicts actually occurred.
