The body of Jesus would have been easily discovered and discredited the Christian faith if it had not been eaten by vultures and jackals, yet the Jewish leaders failed to produce it, suggesting that Jesus is risen.
The body of Jesus rotted in the tomb, if it was not eaten before then by vultures and jackals. Hi, this is Lon Solomon, and this was said by a German theologian whose name I can't pronounce anyway.
But here's the point. If this guy is correct, then why didn't somebody in the first century produce the half-eaten body of Jesus and bring the whole Christian faith to an abrupt end? Friends, the Jewish leaders were anxious to discredit Jesus as the Messiah. All they had to do is produce Jesus' decaying body and their goal would have been achieved.
So why didn't they? It's because as the angels said, He is risen. Friends, this professor in Germany and the angels can't both be right. You gotta make a choice.
