I Have a Question
God is good and powerful, yet suffering is real. The cross does not dissolve that tension; it deepens it. Jesus drank the cup of divine judgement so that rebels and sinners would not face it themselves, upholding both justice and love in a single act. Luke 24 records four converging facts about the empty tomb that no rival explanation accounts for, and non-Christian historians confirm the core details. The apostles recorded their own failures and died for claims they never recanted. If Jesus walked out of that tomb, His words carry binding authority and death itself has an expiry date.
If God is good and powerful, why does suffering exist? The cross flips the question: why would an all-powerful God allow Himself to suffer the worst death imaginable for people who turned away from Him?
The first people told about the empty tomb dismissed it as nonsense. Four pieces of evidence from Luke 24 show why they changed their minds and why the resurrection still demands an honest answer.
Two thousand years of copying could have garbled the New Testament like a game of telephone. Manuscript evidence, non-Christian historians, and the apostles' own deaths tell a different story.
