Last night my family decided to not watch the docudrama on the Discovery Channel because they did not see any relevance. They believe that regardless of definition, the resurrection occurred; whether that was a literal glorification of the mind, BODY, and soul or a figurative glorification of just the soul. There faith requires no more information other than that which they have already received from the Bible.

I believe that the Bible is the living word of God, and I believe it to be accurate to a degree of scientific certainty. I believe that the Bible has been scientifically proven correct as not just a religious book, but a text book of ancient history. With as much information is can be proven, I don’t not find it difficult to take the rest on faith. I do this because I believe that the book is correct word for word. However, I would find it truly troubling to my faith to discover that the glorification as I understand it to have occurred may not have happened the way it was recorded. As far as I know the Bible mentions two times when whole body glorification occurs. The first is with Elijah and the chariot of fire and the second is Jesus Christ. Is that correct?

Finding a tomb containing the bones of Christ would be a devastating blow to my faith and to my moral compass as I know it. Do you believe that the physical body of Christ could be in a 2,000 year old tomb? And if so, would you find that to be in direct contradiction to your faith.
