Was the Tomb Really Empty?


Was the Tomb Really Empty?[Originally posted in cafn.wordpress.com] In his essay “Was the Tomb Really Empty?” Robert H. Stein believes that Christianity without resurrection of Jesus Christ is no more gospel or “good news”. The foundation of Christian faith is laid on the resurrection of Jesus from dead. The gospel without resurrection has no hope and future. For this reason, the authenticity of the empty tomb … Continue reading Was the Tomb Really Empty?

A rabbi by the name of Harold Kushner has written a book called- When Bad Things Happen to Good People. In this book, Kushner expresses that God’s educational purposes when he brings a tragedy upon someone never outweighs the loss in a family.

My family lost a daughter in her heydays of life. It just seems so unnatural that a mother should experience her daughter’s death in her lifetime. The scar never seems to be callous. In fact, the scar is fresh that only may get some relief in her deathbed. In his book, Kushner thus concludes that God may not the all-powerful God. Continue reading “Tragedy and your response-“
