An alternative theory is that jesus was put into a different tomb. Maybe the disciples went to the wrong tomb, he says. And let's just say, for the sake of argument, there were a guards at the tomb. Ah, it seems to me that had he figured out how to roll away the stone, they may have been able to help him back. Haaa ha, ha, ha,. Well, doglet's go on to another alternative theory. N't even make sense. It suggests that the women had gotten lost on their way to a tomb and accidentally stumbled upon a caretaker of an empty tomb. So you had to have an empty tomb and a caretaker
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.
