In his documentary The Last Tomb of Jesus, Simeha Jacobovici claims archaeological evidence that disproves the resurrection of Christ. He says that the words "Jesus son of Joseph" found on a burial container near Jerusalem refer to Jesus of Nazareth. He also claims to have identified Jesus' DNA.

How valid are these??? The Israel Antiquities Authority calls them "nonsense". Other secular & religius scholars agree. Jesus & Joseph were common names in first century Judea. And Jabovici needs DNA samples from Jesus to compare w/ the bones in the tomb. Obviously, that's IMPOSSIBLE!

But there are strong arguments in favor of Jesus' resurrection. Most compelling is the fact that every disciple except John died a martyr's death. Central to their message was Jesus' resurrection (Acts 2:29-32). If Christ had not been raised from the dead, why did the disciples choose to die rather than deny it?

Assaults on our faith & on the Scriptures come & go. Don't be shaken by these baseless attacks. 2 thousand years ago, the disciples were eyewitnesses to the real tomb of Jesus. The angels told them, "Why do you seek the living among dead? He is not here, but is RISEN!" (Luke 24:5-6)


Up from the grave He arose
With a mighty triumph o'er His foes
He arose a Victor from the dark domain
And He lives forever with His saints to reign


**He is risen..! this is a fact of history that demands a response of faith....**
