The Tomb Is Empty

[Weatherman2020]

John 20:1-18 Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance. So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!” So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there but did not go in. Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’ head. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen. Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside. He saw and believed. They still did not understand from Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead. Then the disciples went back to where they were staying.
Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot. They asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?”“They have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I don’t know where they have put him.” At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus. He asked her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for?”Thinking he was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him.” Jesus said to her, “Mary.”She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” which means “Teacher”. Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her.

There are at least two major things here that validates truth. First, if you're going to fabricate a story you don't have a woman playing the key role and the men sitting around unbelieving. Second, she did not at first recognize Jesus. If she was delusional she would have immediately saw this person as Jesus.

This is the likely tomb, it is located at the base of a small hill right outside of the walls of Jerusalem. The hill is shaped like a human skull (Golgotha) and is likely the location of the crucifixion. I have looked inside myself, it is empty.

1) they use forbidden descriptions of angels which proves non Jews wrote that garbage in. Jews don't believe in angels anthropromorphically. It's mere a word "malakh" defined as messenger or reflection of that Essence we call God.
2) This should alert you to the sexual orientation of this character used for the Jesus image:
"the other disciple, the one Jesus loved"
This peculiar statement since Jesus loved Peter as well describes actual relationship to the other disciple which was Lazarus his boy friend and financer of his cause.
Lazarus was the wealthy young boy which was the Disciple Jesus slept with thus loved (in a relationship with).

Sources:

A newly translated Gnostic gospel, entitled The Secret Book of Judas ofKerioth, According to this seeminglyauthentic early Cainite-Ophite text, translated from the Coptic by Mohammed al-Murtada and Francis Bendik, said Jesus had an active bisexual love life,including relationswith John, Lazarus and Mary Magdelene.
Also validating that: is
in the missing portions of Mark it shows Jesus sleeping with a naked young rich man, but also the NT validates this:
"...there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold of him: And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked." (Mark 14:51-52). Was this the companion that Luke observed with Jesus inside the garden?

"...he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked on that day..."(Amos 2:16----the Hebrew 'labab' translated 'flee away' here, actually means 'transported with love', and also 'ravished'). Now that certainly fits this episode of the young man fleeing away naked from Jesus outside the garden of Gethsemane.

Who was this young man if not perhaps the rich man whom "Then Jesus beholding him, loved him..."(Mark 10:21). Perhaps it was the rich man Lazarus, of whom "...he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth..."(John 11:11----The Greek 'philos' translated 'friend', also means 'dear' and 'fond of').

So all the religions that believe in resurrection are just The Revenge Of The Body Snatchers.

Every mythology has a god who dies and comes back from the dead. It's just par for the course.

It is interesting how the followers of Jesus simply abandoned the tomb to the point that no one is sure where it is today.

That speaks volumes.

You miss the point. The tomb is meaningless, death has lost its sting.

Don't forget the rest of the universe. Until science finds another world that both God and Christ have visited, we can't validate our own "visitation".

This is all such bullshit.

What if it's on a planet where on the 8th day, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, "I need a caretaker?"

He was clearly wrong about needing a caretaker, he needed thousands of them, looking at the way we've messed this place up, it's like the night after the prom, when everyone was high on coke, and some spray painted the whole school, others order 10,000 pizzas and left the boxes all over the place and an arsonist come and burned the whole damn thing down.

If we get a few thousand more, they can save the world with endless supplies of corn and corn based everything!
