DID JESUS ARISE FROM THE DEAD,
(An Easter Editorial BY Rev. Charles S!elzlc)

HERE is more evidence to prove that Jesus arose
from the dead than that Julius Caesar ever lived,
once said famous historian.
And perhaps the most fascinating part of that evidence
is that which is commonly called circumstanlia the
little incidents in the story which make it real and
human.
1t will be worthwhile exercise on Easter Sunday for
you to read again those sections Of the four gospels in the
new testament which tell about Jesus resurecon-gomg
or it as lawyer or Judge would review The testimony
a witnesses. sa%
Here is narrative which means more 10 the world than
any other fact in history for if Jesus did not rise from the
dead then the whole fabric Of Christianity falls pieces
and Christians the world over of ell men most mis-
serablc'-o quote the Apostle Paul.
For your guidance in this readag may point out sew
eral important considerations
First, note that the four witnesses Mathew, Mark
Luke and John-seem 10 disagree In MINOR "details
y Now if their stories made up they would have
got together and compared notes, that there would be
no differences But each wrote just as he saw She
facts about Jesus resurrection regardless of what any otter
wrote. They just put down the things that impressed
a each OF them.
Second, in the main there Is absolute agreement They
were all persuaded thai Jesus arose from the deat-a9d
you will observe that iheteshmony lis given by men ho
never expected that Jesus would retn, TO Them Ihcyhsd
al gone back to their old occupations believing that Jesus
vas actually dead. and That He was mistaken about His
ha2 and particularly about His resurrection, which He
had fofNo!d
Third here are little touches in the story which no
writer Of fiction Wspd ever think Of Introducing
For example: Fhe> three women who were first told
about Jesus resurrection said 5ao.ing about it. for hey
were afrighted."
