I Have a Question
God is not distant from human pain. On Good Friday, Jesus endured loneliness, betrayal, and torture, drinking the cup of divine judgement so that all who trust in Him can be forgiven and welcomed into eternal life. The tomb was empty on the third day, and even the earliest critics of Christianity never denied it. The Gospels carry stronger manuscript support than almost any other ancient document, and those who wrote them died for their testimony. These are not questions to avoid. They are invitations to look closely at Jesus and take His claims seriously.
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.
