The Lost Tomb of Jesus is a Sham! |
So what is the point of this film other than to boost the sagging career of
James Cameron of Titanic fame? It is to try and show that Jesus was not
crucified and did not rise from the grave on the third day. The basis of
Christianity is that His grave is empty. Moses is still in his grave as is
Muhammad and Buddha and all other religious figures. What makes Christianity
unique is that Jesus' grave is empty. If indeed these bones prove to be those
of Jesus and there was no resurrection, than as the Apostle Paul wrote,
Christianity is vain, worthless, and we believers are to be pitied. It means
that we all are still in our sins and we should all eat and drink because
tomorrow we die (1Corinthians 15:14, 17, 19, 32).
If Jesus was indeed not resurrected and his bones are indeed in that coffin,
then we are all lost and perishing and our Savior is no more. But we know by
faith and the true, eternal word of God that Cameron is wrong and Jesus came
to this earth sent by the Father to die for our sins and that He was risen on
the third day and sits at the right hand of the Father. Because Jesus did
this, all of us who believe in Him shall not perish but will have eternal life
(John 3:16).
If Jesus was not crucified, buried, resurrected and instead survived and
married Mary Magdelene and had children and died and is in that coffin, then
we all are dead in our trespasses with no hope for forgiveness of our sins and
eternal life. I would not want to bet my eternal soul on that, would you?
