That's because there was just the one (Lazarus). Not 500. There isn't a zombie apocalypse where people rise from their graves until the ACTUAL Biblical apocalypse.

It is understandable you missed this tidbit, I don't think it is generally taught in Sunday school:

Quote (NIV Matthew 27: 50-53)
And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people.


brains!

According to the gospels, what were the last words of Jesus before he died?

"Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit!" (Luke 23:46)
"It is finished" (John 19:30)

Question: Which is correct???

so the "it is finished", thats in refernce to the

Mathew 5:17-18
17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

Right?

placement wise! :thumbsup:
for everything that happens, everyone will have the opportunity of knowledge of the laws.
which makes it impossible for a single bodily existence.

This is what separates the doubting minds with the true believers. If something doesn't make sense the doubters will use that as an excuse and not investigate the matter further. The true believers will ask the questions to the Preachers and get a reasonable answer and keep on investigating until they get to the bottom of it and find the answer that they are looking for.

An answer that does make sense. I know of 3 people off the top of my head, no make that 4 that I can go to and ask that question. What will you be doing?

At what point do you stop though? The amount of mental gymnastics and convincing yourself that the irrational is rational goes beyond delusional into the realm of conspiracy theories. Is it so bad to just accept the contradiction and take it on faith?

You stop when you explore a variety of experts' opinions and find no satisfactory answer.
