Movie Claims Jesus' Body Found

From Ynetnews.com:

The cave in which Jesus Christ was buried has been found in Jerusalem, claim the makers of a new documentary film.

If it proves true, the discovery, which will be revealed at a press conference in New York Monday, could shake up the Christian world as one of the most significant archeological finds in history.


That's the understatement of the millennium. If it were to be proved true, it wouldn't just "shake up the Christian world," it would completely wipe it out.

If Jesus wasn't raised from the dead to ascend into Heaven 40 days later, then Christianity is worthless. That means all the claims and theology of the New Testament are based on lies. Jesus said he'd rise from the dead, and if he didn't then he was a liar and not the Son of God.

The serious claims of this film continue:

The story starts in 1980 in Jerusalem’s Talpiyot neighborhood, with the discovery of a 2,000 year old cave containing ten coffins. Six of the ten coffins were carved with inscriptions reading the names: Jesua son of Joseph, Mary, Mary, Matthew, Jofa (Joseph, identified as Jesus’ brother), Judah son of Jesua (Jesus’ son - the filmmakers claim).


The Bible also says Jesus never married, and if he never sinned and never married, then he couldn't have a son.

I'm not worried, though. Skeptics have been trying to fool people into believing the resurrection was a hoax since shortly after the event occurred. They've failed for 2000 years and they'll continue to fail. There's far too much evidence that Jesus was who he claimed to be, and that the resurrection did occur.

A former atheist, Josh McDowell, wrote two large books based on his research into the authenticity of Christ's claims...research that brought him from atheist to one of the top Christian apologists of today. Those books, Evidence that Demands a Verdict I & II, have been combined and updated into a new version.

I always seek the truth, even if it leads to the conclusion that I've been wrong. But I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for this to be proved true.
