Christians,

How would your life change if you were to learn that the resurrection of Jesus never occurred?

I don't care.

Why should I believe some random book on the subject rather than records of eye-witness account from Jesus friends and relatives?

I could explained it to you in danish and show you how unreliable your source is. But is there not a critical website in english about your source? What has the Bible to do with reality? The same mistake is in the Quran...

And what source is that? The bible?

You believe you have a book that gives a more reliable account of the events surrounding the death of Christ than the bible? Can you explain what yhe authors of this book has that the bible does not?

Are you danish? Its better not to talk danish in here. The new testament is what we are talking about with regard to Jesus and the resurrection. Are the stories reliable. I do not think so. But I cant make a case for it in english. So lets drop that. And talk about this mistake that is also in the bible. What has the bible to do with reality? Maybe a new topic...

What mistake is that? Your English seems good enough to say in a simple sentence what mistake you are referring to. You could start by saying ...

The bible made a mistake when it says ...{ and here you could just put in a few words what the mistake is}

How do you know it was really Christ and not for example Satan the devil pretending to be Christ?
2 CORINTHIANS 11:14

Satan himself keeps disguising himself as an angel of light
JOHN 8:44

When he speaks the lie, he speaks according to his own disposition, because he is a liar and the father of the lie

No but a person can die and be bought to life in a spirit body.
So a person can be separated from the human body and bought to life in a spirit body? That is all I am hearing you say. Let me explain that. Because where does God get the person from? If not from the human body? So God separates the person from the human body and gives it a spiritual body...

This forum debates the truth of the Bible and Christianity. Are you begging the question when you assume that there were eye-witness accounts, just because the Bible said so?
