Send In Your Question for the Podcast🕵️‍♂️💥 Ever wondered if there's REAL PROOF that Jesus rose from the dead?What if we investigated it like a real missing person case?In today’s episode of Be the 25, we’re going full detective mode 🧠🔎 as we start breaking down some of the most common theories people throw around to explain away the resurrection:❌ "Jesus wasn’t really dead..."❌ "Someone stole the body..."❌ "The disciples went to the wrong tomb..."❌ "It was all just a hallucination..."❌ Or even wild stuff like Jesus having a twin brother 👥…or aliens took Him👽But do those theories hold up when you actually LOOK at the EVIDENCE? 👀📜We’re starting this two-part investigation by examining the eyewitness accounts found in the Gospels 📖 and tackling the first major theory — the idea that Jesus never really died on the cross.💥 Spoiler alert: He didn’t just faint. What He endured was BRUTAL. 😓💔We walk through the physical suffering Jesus went through — from being slapped, beaten, mocked, and flogged — to show why the "swoon theory" doesn’t stand a chance.👣 Along the way, you’ll learn:Why the Gospel writers’ different details actually make their stories MORE believable, not less 🧩What a Roman flogging really was and why it was often deadly 💀Why eyewitness testimony matters 🗣️📝📣 Paul said in 1 Corinthians 15:17 that if Christ has not been raised, your faith is useless.So yeah — this matters.
