The Resurrection of Jesus is still one of the much debated subjects in the history of mankind. Though the majority agrees that Jesus died, not the majority of the majority agrees on the matter of his resurrection. Did Jesus resurrect? If so, how did he resurrect?
Some believers say that Jesus resurrected physically. Not to mention that there is a large number of believers discrediting the physical resurrection of Jesus. It may be hard to believe, but let me tell you that some of those who are rejecting the theory of physical resurrection are Christians.

It may be hard to believe, but let me tell you that some of those who are rejecting the theory of spiritual resurrection are Christians as well.
Now the question is: Who is right? Or should the question be: Who is wrong? The resurrection of Jesus is the key concept that has fueled Christianity to our days. What to say of a religion with confused believers? Who should the non-believers follow or listen to? What is to be said about Jesus and his resurrection? Did it happen at all?
The question should not be whether or not it happened. The question should be pertaining to how it happened. Is it right to concur that Jesus resurrected physically? Is it right to concur that Jesus resurrected spiritually? Can both viewpoints be right? Can they both be wrong? How did Jesus resurrect?
Christianity needs to come together in answering this pertinent question. Christianity has to look into the definition of the word resurrection and see how it applies to Jesus. According to Webster, resurrection is “an act of returning or bringing from death to life.” (Office edition, Webster’s II New Riverside Dictionary)
The answer to the question “how Jesus resurrected?” is in the Bible. And there is only one answer. Is the answer in the Bible supporting the theory of physical resurrection? Is it supporting the theory of spiritual resurrection?
Who is right? Who is wrong?
"Resurrection" can only be that of a SINNER.
If one wants to discuss biology based on Faith and beliefs, then, we would have to assume that those that serve Satan, and believe in wrongdoing --Sociopaths/Psychopaths-- have first class tickets to THE HEAVENLY LAND.
The author did find an interesting way to wake up the mass in the ignorant historic-hypnotic trance, and to open the doors to reason. I am very impressed with this Socratic like way of teaching.
Much gratitude to the author "Resurrection of Jesus".

What I do have is faith.
I like this saying that many preachers use "It is a mystery of faith."
Keep the Faith!
Many Blessings!

I think you have a interesting article. I too am a christian believer and I would have to say that getting caught up in who's right or wrong isn't necessary and causes confusion whereas we should be truly seeking understanding. I would say that resurrection of Jesus is simple. He gave light to a dying world. That is the resurrection and we should do the same. Live each day to the fullest and share our God given light to the world to commenmorate the sacrifice of our Lord. Have a Blessed Day & Keep the Faith Brother!
God Bless You and Your Loved Ones
