So was Jesus really dead on the cross and resurrected? Islam says No, Christians Yes?

Yes, Jesus was dead before he was taken off the cross and laid in the tomb. Muslims deny that Jesus died and was then resurrected because that would make Jesus more important than Muhammad. The Qur'an says that Allah deceived the Jews into thinking Jesus was killed. Under no circumstances will they have it that Jesus was much more than a mere man, a prophet. They deny he preexisted, in heaven, before he came to earth in human form. They refuse to see that Jesus was the very Son of God and they would have people believe Jesus was a Muslim! Back to the crucifixion...

What everybody seems to conveniently forget is that the Romans were experts at crucifixions, and before the sun went down, they broke the legs of all the victims still alive to ensure they died before they were taken down. And with Jesus, who had died before they could break his legs, they shoved a spear inbetween his ribs to puncture the lungs and the heart. Blood and water came out. No Roman soldier would be stupid enough not to finish off the victims, because if they failed to do the job right, they themselves would be crucified.

Jesus was dead, not drugged. Eyewitnesses were there to testify to the fact. Read the article in the link below which exposes the lie that Jesus was not dead. The purpose for the Swoon Theory is not to dispute His death, but rather, it seeks to disprove His resurrection. If Jesus didn’t resurrect, then He’s not God. If Jesus truly died and rose from the dead, His power over death proves that He is the Son of God. The evidence demands the verdict: Jesus truly died on the cross, and Jesus truly rose from the dead.

Although I am not sure weather Jesus even existed in the first place, I don't see how Islam could have any saying on the matter if it were to be true...
Islam came to existence 6 centuries after alleged event.

It's a bit like trying to solve a murder mystery, but in reverse! No body all right, but a dead man now seen to be alive by many witnesses!

Some of these witnesses are named in 1 Corinthians chapter 15. James and John (two of those witnesses) wrote accounts, so we have their take on the matter. And there were nearly 500 other witnesses, most of whom were still alive when 1 Corinthians was written, some 25 years after the death of Christ.

And here's a fact - if Jesus really died and stayed dead, there would be no Christianity. It was only conviction that the dead Christ was now the living, glorified Christ that propelled those fearful Christians into bold witnesses of the resurrection, going global with the good news. The Christians were prepared to die horrible deaths rather than renounce their conviction that Christ has been resurrected.

Another point - nobody in history who was crucified by the Romans survived the experience. They were impaled alive, and were taken down dead. A Centurion was dispatched by Pontius Pilate to make sure Jesus was dead before he allowed Joseph of Arimathea to take Jesus' corpse away for burial, in a sealed tomb with Roman guards stationed to prevent the body being stolen.

Sir Edward Clarke KC, wrote: "As a lawyer I have made a prolonged study of the evidences for the events of the first Easter Day. To me the evidence is conclusive, and over and over again in the High Court I have secured the verdict on evidence not nearly so compelling."

Read any of the books below for thorough coverage of this subject. AiH

Just look at the prelude of the whole event, it was based entirely on false witness and accusation. Truth is Jesus was not guilty as charged. Only Christians believed Jesus was guilty as charged.

In real life, Jesus did not claim any divinity.

Such statements that he said this and the Jews said that, to show divinity are absurd. The gospel was written that way to justify that he claimed divinity.

The man Jesus died on the cross. The consciousness of his God nature is beyond our powers of understanding. The physical body was disintegrated and the man-God resurrected.

Jesus was never on the cross.

In Islam.

He did solve it through the Quran and clearly stating that Jesus did not die on the cross and that he was a messenger not the son of God.

Because our FATHER want to see our abilities to solve the problems !!!!

Our FATHER always left behind "clues" for us to solve the puzzles. Only the smart and the worthiness ONE can go back to our home the HEAVEN !! Because the HEAVEN has no place for the " Dull One " !!!!

Islam : Actually mean....I SLAM......I SMASH.....I DESTROY !! It's a religion of Destruction , which is RULES by the God of DESTRUCTION ! Allah is the God of Saturn ( Planet Saturn) NOT the SUN of CHRISTIAN 'S GOD. Saturn is NOT a planet, but a " dying" Sun ....Hence it is a dying God !!!!!!

Now , One GOD is the TRUTH , Which is the SUN ( Our Father) .....A LIVING GOD !!!!...The GOD of CREATOR !!!! And the other is a " dying" God or GOD of DESTRUCTION , God of Saturn !!

Tell me which ONE you rather TRUST ??????????????? Which GOD is more likely to tell you the TRUTH ????? Which GOD has more LOVE ???? Which GOD created more HATRED ???? Which GOD is involve in more " Killing" ? Which God has his follower dressed in BLACK !! Which GOD tell their followers to kill in order to go to HEAVEN ???? Which GOD is unfair treatment to the women ??? Which GOD is RULE by FORCE ???? Which GOD give the nation less CHAOS ???? Which GOD teach EVEN to love their enemies ???? Which GOD is more likely to represent the LIGHT ???? Which GOD is more likely to be the Darkness ?? Which GOD promises 72 Virgins & Endless of Foods ? ( As spiritual Beings , we don't need Virgins & Foods , because our souls absorbed energies from our FATHER 's SUN light !! NOT from FOODS !!!! ) It's clearly FASLE promises !!!!. Now, Do you need more " CLUES", My Dear Friend ????

GOD BLESS ! EVERYONE !

sphere..............Love you ALL !

No. He didnt die on the cross and he is pretty alive at that day.

Actually, God leaves many important events throughout human history and leaves people have their opinion about that. He tested us whether you will use your brain or not.

He solved this issue long long time ago by giving us Quran. Some people just didnt want to know it. But here is the clue. For thousands years God said He is One and the Only One. And suddenly from nowhere, there is a guy who said God is Trinity. Not all so called Christians at the time believe at Trinity. Then it is pretty natural He gave His last correction regarding this issue 6 centuries later.

So was Jesus really dead on the cross and resurrected? Islam says No, Christians Yes?
Where does the truth lie?

Ding dongs have cream in the center and so do those who believe such nonsense.

The issue of God's son's death and ascension was solved many, many, many years ago:

(Acts 3:15) . . .whereas YOU killed the Chief Agent of life. But God raised him up from the dead, of which fact we are witnesses.

(Acts 2:32) . . .This Jesus God resurrected, of which fact we are all witnesses.

God doesn't allow HIS PEOPLE to have different views and interpretations of His word.

"Now I exhort YOU, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ that YOU should all speak in agreement, and that there should not be divisions among YOU, but that YOU may be fitly united in the same mind and in the same line of thought." (1 Corinthians 1:10)

The different views and interpretations comes from those who are NOT God's; those who deviate from what God resolved years ago and from what God's word clearly says above.
