The Resurrection of Jesus ( Historical Evidence )
As you might have guessed, I am working on a proof of sorts. To establish as best as can be determined from what we know, what actually happened in that time.
The evidence rolls in, and it is pretty convincing. Of course, there is a counter argument.
The counter arguments may seem pretty convincing too. In this link to a video, the counter arguments are examined at length. The conclusion is that the Resurrection of Jesus best explains what happened to the body of the man known as Jesus of Nazareth.

Rather than make another post, this will go here, because it fits in with the most recent update. Was there a Pontius Pilate? Pretty convincing evidence exists that there was. Was there a Jesus of Nazareth? Here's a video that recaps all the sources of information that exist that should satisfy any reasonable person that, yes there was a Jesus of Nazareth.
oops... here's one more link that caused me to write this post in the first place. A new source of information from the Jews. ( some say a pagan )

Who was Pontius Pilate? Was he a real person? Here's a long video that discusses it at length, and provides a good reason to believe he really did live at that time, and was governor of Judea at that time. I linked in at the end because there is a lot more info here than you need in order to make that determination.
12:00 noon:
Here's a link showing evidence of the existence of Jesus from non-Christian sources. The sources are the Roman historian Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, Josephus ( A 1st century Jewish historian ), and some others. Tacitus wrote about Nero, who blamed the Christians for the fire in Rome ( c. AD 64 ).

This topic seem worthy of further study, and here's a website with some answers.
The question is was Christ's body stolen from the tomb?
The site has plenty to say, so you can spend some time there.

Today is Easter, and a few thoughts.
A few days ago, I rented a movie called Risen , which is about a Roman tribune who went in search of Jesus' body.
It followed the Gospels a bit loosely, so I think --- meh.
Reviewing the Gospel of Matthew, it can be seen that the tomb was guarded and sealed. That is what the movie showed. The movie did not show angels moving the stone. Only a drunken Roman soldier who guarded the tomb, and what the tribune heard him say about it under questioning.
The link below describes what was believed to be what was in the tomb after the Resurrection.
I suppose everybody will believe whatever they wish to believe.
The article below links the two cloths together, and the findings are that they are of the same person. The article goes on to say that it would hold up in a court of law. Plus there is more...
What Was Found in Christ’s Empty Tomb? https://t.co/Eisb5vgDz1— Greg Meadows (@BootsandOilBlog) April 21, 2019

Here's an account of the story written as if it happened in modern times. It seems to support the movie version above in the sense that the tomb was guarded by Elite Roman Troops, and that there was a subsequent search for the body.
