Not actually. The foundation of Christianity is that Jesus did actually die and was then resurrected. The death was real. You are just questioning his resurrection.In fairness, Christianity began with a bunch of dudes insisting that Jesus didn't really die,...

It's my understand that it is not entirely clear what the early Christians thought happened between Friday and Sunday, and it's likely that there was some disagreement. Enough Christians were still arguing about this after hundreds of years that I'd be far from comfortable simply taking fourth century orthodoxy as a guide to early Christianity.Not actually.

Current thinking has the gospels and letters of Paul all written by the end of the first Century. The New Testament speaks of Jesus's death and resurrection. Once the early church fathers show up and begin to formalize Christian thinking, things begin to go in all kinds of really interesting directions.It's my understand that it is not entirely clear what the early Christians thought happened between Friday and Sunday, and it's likely that there was some disagreement.

And the Jewish Theocrats of Judea - the Pharisees - at the time were not at all fond of Christ, and considered him a heretic, an apostate, a blasphemer, and a cult-builder. Pontius Pilat, the Roman Proconsul of Judea, just thought he was a charismatic demagogue building a possible anti-Imperial rebellion.
I think the proper verb for that is "Epstiened."So when will Maxwell be suicided?

In a sentence: When will Maxwell be Epstiened?
typical American BS . When the cameras go down and all that what makes you think that Epstein's assistant team was just one guy ?
