Could I message you about something I really read something to bother me on the resurrection and the empty tomb could I please ask you about it it really bothered me but it's too long to post as a comma can I please message you ask about it and ask you to respond to it please
2. The empty tomb is attested across multiple independent sources. Saying the Bible tells me so is overly simplistic for there are multiple sources within the Bible. The creed in 1 Cor also likely implies a burial (see point 1 article) and likely dates to within several years of Jesus.
3. The empty tomb narrative includes embarrassing details- women are the first to discover the empty tomb and a member of the Sanhedrin in Joseph of Arimathea (the group that killed Jesus) buried him in a tomb. More in my resurrection guide: https://streettheologian.substack.com/p/did-jesus-really-rise-from-the-dead
5. A source having a bias does not mean you should dismiss it overall- everyone has a bias. That is where historical criteria such as embarrassment, multiple attestation and evidence of eyewitness accounts is helpful. Paulogia seems to be applying a standard here that you wouldn't apply to other historical texts- the question is what is the best explanation of what took place.
Hope this can guide you on your journey. All the best.
I saw a video that bothered me could I ask you to respond to it it was made by an atheist YouTuber and response was firing philosophies and it bothered me because this ATC implies Jesus was buried in a trenches was not buried in a tomb like in the biblical narrative could you respond to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMufkaxs2Go
I wanted you to respond to this because of this video he claims Galatians 1:9 is an interpolation the best of is for Jesus could you respond to this https://youtu.be/ldTEXucN7p4
read something by an atheist that bothered me he claims Jesus didn't have a biological brother and Jesus and not exist and James suggests is outside the category of apostles and Jesus didn't have a brother here it is this video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EKFH0eaixkI&pp=ygUpIEdvZGxlc3MgZW5naW5lZXIgb24gYnJvdGhlcnMgb2YgdGhlIExvcmQ%3D the reason why I asked you about this is cuz I'm a Christian struggling with my face and I asked you could you make a response to this please or respond to the main points
Hey Randy thanks for reaching out. We have 42 sources on Jesus within the first 150 years of his life. Even sceptics like Bart Ehrman take Christ myther comments as being completely ludicrous and making themselves look silly. Here's a video from Ehrman for you, he even addressed how Paul makes an "off the cuff" comment about James in Galatians and every scholar in the ancient world he knows thinks Paul wrote Galatians.
I address if Jesus existed more in my resurrection case:
Hi Randy, these articles seem to refute the view that Jesus Mythicists use from Galatians as does the video I sent you from Ehrman. What is your position on Galatians 1:19?
Feel free to send your thoughts/ questions through. However, please keep in mind I do have a long list of planned articles, get a lot of questions and I also have a full time job. Thanks for touching base. I hope you can gain more clarity in your journey.

I'm sorry you can't respond to the hour long video but could you respond to this minute video https://m.youtube.com/shorts/T6ANyeLEDiw
Hey Randy a few quick thoughts:
1. For a discussion on the historical side of it view https://inspiringphilosophy.wordpress.com/2020/08/13/yes-jesus-was-buried-in-a-tomb-a-response-to-paulogia/
2. The empty tomb is attested across multiple independent sources. Saying the Bible tells me so is overly simplistic for there are multiple sources within the Bible. The creed in 1 Cor also likely implies a burial (see point 1 article) and likely dates to within several years of Jesus.

More in my resurrection guide: https://streettheologian.substack.com/p/did-jesus-really-rise-from-the-dead
4. There are good reasons to think the Gospels include a fair portion of eyewitness data, which coupled with multiple attestation and embarrassment provide reasonable ground to accept the empty tomb. More here: https://streettheologian.substack.com/p/are-the-gospels-based-on-eyewitness-cc9

Hey Randy I get sent lots of videos and have a long list of topics to cover I'm sorry I can't just watch 1 hr videos on request. Hope you understand.
Not sure if the link below is helpful on the topic:

If there is a specific point you can summarise and ask me about that might be easier.
