There's the conspiracy theory of the disciples, and then there's the stolen body one. The story has been spread among the jews to this day. Imea: It just seems like a wonder illustration of people who know the truth but suppress it. Or what do you do if you actually believe that jesus really rose from the dead, but you don't have faith in him? And how this plays itself out as we think about some of these alternate theories.
Having established the minimal facts of the resurrection, how do we respond when people suggest alternative theories for explaining the missing body, the empty tomb, and Christ’s post-resurrection appearances? Did Jesus simply faint on the cross? Was his body stolen? Did the women go to the wrong tomb? Did the disciples make up the resurrection story, or did it grow and develop over the years? In this episode of White Horse Inn, Eric Landry, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Doug Powell evaluate these common objections and more, helping you prepare for discussions around the table this Easter.
