  • - this path is already narrow,
  • 00:01:00.593 --> 00:00:01.439
  • And we will forge forward making no excuse
  • 00:00:01.439 --> 00:00:04.375
  • For why we can live uncompromised in this generation.
  • 00:00:04.375 --> 00:00:07.912
  • - lock in, gimme a hundred people who will walk
  • 00:00:07.912 --> 00:00:11.749
  • That narrow road
  • 00:00:11.749 --> 00:00:13.150
  • And say, i may have some things in my family,
  • 00:00:13.150 --> 00:00:16.520
  • But i█m where it runs out.
  • 00:00:16.520 --> 00:00:19.857
  • - i'm standing at a tomb.
  • 00:00:20.424 --> 00:00:22.193
  • And i wanna tell you something,
  • 00:00:22.827 --> 00:00:24.128
  • Christians almost never say out loud, you know,
  • 00:00:24.128 --> 00:00:27.131
  • If jesus didn't rise from the dead,
  • 00:00:27.131 --> 00:00:29.500
  • Christianity is a complete and total lie.
  • 00:00:29.500 --> 00:00:32.536
  • Not kind of wrong, not mostly symbolic and actual lie.
  • 00:00:32.536 --> 00:00:37.508
  • That that's not me being dramatic.
  • 00:00:37.508 --> 00:00:39.710
  • That's actually the apostle paul.
  • 00:00:39.710 --> 00:00:41.645
  • He said, if christ has not been raised,
  • 00:00:41.645 --> 00:00:44.381
  • Your faith is futile.
  • 00:00:44.381 --> 00:00:46.584
  • This is one corinthians chapter 15, verse 17.
  • 00:00:46.584 --> 00:00:49.787
  • And so today, i'm not asking that you feel anything,
  • 00:00:49.787 --> 00:00:53.190
  • I'm not asking you to trust the church.
  • 00:00:53.190 --> 00:00:55.826
  • I'm asking just one very simple question,
  • 00:00:55.826 --> 00:00:58.996
  • What actually happened here at this tomb?
  • 00:00:58.996 --> 00:01:02.299
  • Because if this tomb still had a body,
  • 00:01:02.299 --> 00:01:04.668
  • You wouldn't be watching this video right now.
  • 00:01:04.668 --> 00:01:06.637
  • That, that's the truth.
  • 00:01:06.637 --> 00:01:07.972
  • You know, every religion says live this way.
  • 00:01:07.972 --> 00:01:10.941
  • Christianity says something actually happened
  • 00:01:10.941 --> 00:01:14.979
  • And everything rises or falls on that singular claim.
  • 00:01:14.979 --> 00:01:19.350
  • And, and find, you know, find the body
  • 00:01:19.350 --> 00:01:21.352
  • And christianity collapses instantly.
  • 00:01:21.352 --> 00:01:24.088
  • So let, let's just do this, honestly, no preacher voice,
  • 00:01:24.088 --> 00:01:28.559
  • No emotional manipulation, just logic,
  • 00:01:28.559 --> 00:01:31.662
  • And one stubborn problem that no one has been able to solve
  • 00:01:31.662 --> 00:01:35.799
  • For 2000 years.
  • 00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:37.968
  • You know, jesus is executed publicly.
  • 00:01:37.968 --> 00:01:41.438
  • Rome is really good at killing people.
  • 00:01:41.438 --> 00:01:44.508
  • They, they don't miss, i, i don't know else to say it.
  • 00:01:44.508 --> 00:01:47.311
  • His followers scatter. peter denies him.
  • 00:01:47.311 --> 00:01:51.382
  • Everybody just begins to run game over,
  • 00:01:51.382 --> 00:01:55.019
  • Except it isn't
  • 00:01:55.019 --> 00:01:56.854
  • Because weeks later in, in the same city,
  • 00:01:56.854 --> 00:02:00.057
  • These same people are standing up publicly
  • 00:02:00.057 --> 00:02:03.060
  • And they're declaring he's alive.
  • 00:02:03.060 --> 00:02:05.229
  • Not he inspired us, not his teachings live on,
  • 00:02:05.229 --> 00:02:09.233
  • He is alive.
  • 00:02:09.233 --> 00:02:10.868
  • So here's the first problem.
  • 00:02:10.868 --> 00:02:13.170
  • If the body exists, christianity never starts. okay?
  • 00:02:13.170 --> 00:02:17.274
  • We agree on that.
  • 00:02:17.274 --> 00:02:18.642
  • I mean, rome parades the body around the authority,
  • 00:02:18.642 --> 00:02:21.512
  • Shut it down, end of story.
  • 00:02:21.512 --> 00:02:23.981
  • But instead the movement actually explodes.
  • 00:02:23.981 --> 00:02:28.385
  • So let, let me ask you something.
  • 00:02:28.385 --> 00:02:29.587
  • Honestly, if this was fake,
  • 00:02:29.587 --> 00:02:32.456
  • Why didn't anyone just show the body?
  • 00:02:32.456 --> 00:02:34.925
  • I mean, that's the easiest way to stop it.
  • 00:02:34.925 --> 00:02:37.161
  • And, and they never did. and that silence is deafening.
  • 00:02:37.161 --> 00:02:41.665
  • Now, here's where this gets very strange.
  • 00:02:41.665 --> 00:02:44.768
  • You know, in the resurrection accounts,
  • 00:02:44.768 --> 00:02:47.004
  • The first witnesses are women.
  • 00:02:47.004 --> 00:02:49.106
  • I want you to pay attention to this.
  • 00:02:49.106 --> 00:02:50.841
  • That might not sound like really odd to us,
  • 00:02:50.841 --> 00:02:53.644
  • But in the ancient world,
  • 00:02:53.644 --> 00:02:54.979
  • Women's testimony carried no legal wave.
  • 00:02:54.979 --> 00:02:58.182
  • So if you were inventing a story to convince people in
  • 00:02:58.182 --> 00:03:01.385
  • That particular culture, you would never do that.
  • 00:03:01.385 --> 00:03:04.955
  • You'd put peter, you'd put a rabbi,
  • 00:03:04.955 --> 00:03:08.225
  • You'd put a roman official.
  • 00:03:08.225 --> 00:03:10.461
  • But instead, the, the writers, they leave in that detail,
  • 00:03:10.461 --> 00:03:14.565
  • Which actually hurts their credibility.
  • 00:03:14.565 --> 00:03:16.900
  • Now, that's not how real propaganda works.
  • 00:03:16.900 --> 00:03:19.970
  • That's actually how memory works.
  • 00:03:19.970 --> 00:03:22.172
  • So let's talk about two men
  • 00:03:22.172 --> 00:03:24.675
  • Who blow up every easy explanation.
  • 00:03:24.675 --> 00:03:27.211
  • First is james, jesus actual brother.
  • 00:03:27.211 --> 00:03:30.814
  • So if anyone knows he's not god, it's his brother. come on.
  • 00:03:30.814 --> 00:03:35.185
  • So the gospels say that james actually didn't believe him,
  • 00:03:35.185 --> 00:03:39.957
  • And yet james becomes the leader of the jerusalem church.
  • 00:03:39.957 --> 00:03:44.328
  • So pause. what would it take for you
  • 00:03:44.328 --> 00:03:47.998
  • To worship your own sibling?
  • 00:03:47.998 --> 00:03:50.067
  • Think about this. i mean, paul gives a one line explanation
  • 00:03:50.067 --> 00:03:54.104
  • That actually explains everything.
  • 00:03:54.104 --> 00:03:56.206
  • Then he appeared to james, okay? and then there's paul.
  • 00:03:56.206 --> 00:04:00.811
  • You know, paul isn't searching. he, he's not open.
  • 00:04:00.811 --> 00:04:03.914
  • He is physically hunting down and murdering christians.
  • 00:04:03.914 --> 00:04:07.518
  • And suddenly everything flips.
  • 00:04:07.518 --> 00:04:09.553
  • He loses status, he loses safety, he loses his future.
  • 00:04:09.553 --> 00:04:14.358
  • I mean, no one converts to something false
  • 00:04:14.358 --> 00:04:17.294
  • That ruins their life
  • 00:04:17.294 --> 00:04:19.129
  • Unless something happened that shattered their worldview.
  • 00:04:19.129 --> 00:04:23.233
  • Now you've got a movement started by cowards,
  • 00:04:23.233 --> 00:04:27.938
  • Sustained by suffering, and joined by actual enemies.
  • 00:04:27.938 --> 00:04:32.109
  • That's, that combination is explosive.
  • 00:04:32.109 --> 00:04:34.511
  • So let's walk through the options. okay?
  • 00:04:34.511 --> 00:04:37.381
  • First they stole the body, you know,
  • 00:04:37.381 --> 00:04:40.217
  • Then they knowingly died for a lie.
  • 00:04:40.217 --> 00:04:43.053
  • That, that doesn't work.
  • 00:04:43.053 --> 00:04:45.022
  • Okay, wrong tomb, you got the wrong tomb,
  • 00:04:45.022 --> 00:04:47.624
  • Then show the right one.
  • 00:04:47.624 --> 00:04:49.193
  • Just end it. but that also didn't happen, okay?
  • 00:04:49.193 --> 00:04:52.429
  • It's just hallucinations.
  • 00:04:52.429 --> 00:04:54.331
  • No hallucinations don't happen to whole groups of people.
  • 00:04:54.331 --> 00:04:58.469
  • They, they don't convert enemies
  • 00:04:58.469 --> 00:05:00.437
  • And they don't make bodies disappear.
  • 00:05:00.437 --> 00:05:03.107
  • Okay, mike, it's just a legend.
  • 00:05:03.107 --> 00:05:05.342
  • Legends take generations to form. think about it.
  • 00:05:05.342 --> 00:05:09.046
  • This message erupts immediately while witnesses are still
  • 00:05:09.046 --> 00:05:13.384
  • Actually alive and could debunk it.
  • 00:05:13.384 --> 00:05:15.686
  • I mean, every alternative explanation creates more problems
  • 00:05:15.686 --> 00:05:19.690
  • Than it actually solves.
  • 00:05:19.690 --> 00:05:21.258
  • So, historians, christians,
  • 00:05:21.258 --> 00:05:23.660
  • Or not, are left with the same uncomfortable conclusion.
  • 00:05:23.660 --> 00:05:28.399
  • Something happened that convinced them that jesus was
  • 00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:32.669
  • And is alive.
  • 00:05:32.669 --> 00:05:34.104
  • And, and now we arrive at the real tension
  • 00:05:34.104 --> 00:05:36.607
  • Because the resurrection isn't just a claim about the past.
  • 00:05:36.607 --> 00:05:40.344
  • It, it now becomes a claim about reality.
  • 00:05:40.344 --> 00:05:43.247
  • It says, death is not ultimate.
  • 00:05:43.247 --> 00:05:46.216
  • It says injustice doesn't win.
  • 00:05:46.216 --> 00:05:48.619
  • It says suffering isn't pointless.
  • 00:05:48.619 --> 00:05:51.455
  • And that's why this story refuses to die. come on.
  • 00:05:51.455 --> 00:05:55.859
  • Not because it's comforting, because it's confrontational.
  • 00:05:55.859 --> 00:06:00.230
  • You know, if jesus rose from the dead,
  • 00:06:00.230 --> 00:06:02.399
  • Then god has stepped into history.
  • 00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:05.202
  • And that means you're not just a cosmic accident trying
  • 00:06:05.202 --> 00:06:08.772
  • To cope, and you're looking for a video to prove
  • 00:06:08.772 --> 00:06:11.608
  • Or disprove what really happened.
  • 00:06:11.608 --> 00:06:13.911
  • It means that you're known.
  • 00:06:13.911 --> 00:06:15.345
  • It means that death is actually on a clock.
  • 00:06:15.345 --> 00:06:18.148
  • So here's the honest ending.
  • 00:06:18.148 --> 00:06:20.184
  • You don't reject the resurrection
  • 00:06:20.184 --> 00:06:22.352
  • Because there's no evidence.
  • 00:06:22.352 --> 00:06:24.254
  • You reject it. because if it's true,
  • 00:06:24.254 --> 00:06:26.590
  • It changes everything for you.
  • 00:06:26.590 --> 00:06:28.459
  • It it, it means jesus isn't just a teacher.
  • 00:06:28.459 --> 00:06:31.762
  • He's actually lord and master.
  • 00:06:31.762 --> 00:06:33.964
  • And lordship means full surrender is demanded of you.
  • 00:06:33.964 --> 00:06:37.835
  • So i, i won't ask you to believe,
  • 00:06:37.835 --> 00:06:40.604
  • I'm gonna ask something even harder than believing.
  • 00:06:40.604 --> 00:06:43.774
  • Ask this very honestly, god,
  • 00:06:43.774 --> 00:06:46.510
  • If you raise jesus from the dead, show me, not church,
  • 00:06:46.510 --> 00:06:51.248
  • Not just another religion, but truth.
  • 00:06:51.248 --> 00:06:53.817
  • Because if this tomb is empty, then your life is not
  • 00:06:53.817 --> 00:06:58.622
  • Because he said, i am the resurrection and the life.
  • 00:06:58.622 --> 00:07:02.125
  • And if that's true, the most rational response,
  • 00:07:02.125 --> 00:07:05.062
  • It's not scrolling away.
  • 00:07:05.062 --> 00:07:06.563
  • It's not clicking off, it's actually stepping closer,
  • 00:07:06.563 --> 00:07:10.000
  • Coming in deeper
  • 00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:11.368
  • And saying, god, i want to know you personally.
  • 00:07:11.368 --> 00:07:14.838
  • I wanna pray for you right now
  • 00:07:14.838 --> 00:07:16.106
  • Because i believe
  • 00:07:16.106 --> 00:07:17.508
  • That this was a major confirmation in your life.
  • 00:07:17.508 --> 00:07:21.044
  • And you, you clicked on this video, i believe,
  • 00:07:21.044 --> 00:07:23.514
  • Because the holy spirit led you to this moment.
  • 00:07:23.514 --> 00:07:26.650
  • You know, as i'm standing in front
  • 00:07:26.650 --> 00:07:28.519
  • Of this tomb, it is empty.
  • 00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:31.054
  • It was empty. oh yeah, it was.
  • 00:07:31.054 --> 00:07:33.056
  • It was filled with his body for three days.
  • 00:07:33.056 --> 00:07:36.126
  • But on sunday, he rose again.
  • 00:07:36.126 --> 00:07:38.729
  • And when he rose again, what he said is,
  • 00:07:38.729 --> 00:07:41.231
  • You now have an opportunity to die with me
  • 00:07:41.231 --> 00:07:44.468
  • And to also rise with me.
  • 00:07:44.468 --> 00:07:46.670
  • And so if you're making that decision right now,
  • 00:07:46.670 --> 00:07:48.939
  • I wanna pray together.
  • 00:07:48.939 --> 00:07:50.207
  • And i want you to just say this prayer with me.
  • 00:07:50.207 --> 00:07:52.442
  • Romans chapter 10, verse nine says, confess with your mouth,
  • 00:07:52.442 --> 00:07:55.979
  • Believe in your heart that he is the savior
  • 00:07:55.979 --> 00:07:58.649
  • And you will be saved.
  • 00:07:58.649 --> 00:08:00.651
  • Some of you have tears streaming down your face right now
  • 00:08:00.651 --> 00:08:03.921
  • Because you said, i've always known it.
  • 00:08:03.921 --> 00:08:06.023
  • And lord, forgive me for my unbelief.
  • 00:08:06.023 --> 00:08:08.091
  • No, no, he's not judging you because of your unbelief.
  • 00:08:08.091 --> 00:08:11.495
  • As a matter of fact, my middle name is thomas, one
  • 00:08:11.495 --> 00:08:14.431
  • Of the disciples, his name was thomas,
  • 00:08:14.431 --> 00:08:16.967
  • And he's often referred to as doubting thomas.
  • 00:08:16.967 --> 00:08:20.170
  • But here's the thing, he wasn't rejected
  • 00:08:20.170 --> 00:08:23.607
  • By jesus for his doubt.
  • 00:08:23.607 --> 00:08:25.275
  • As a matter of fact, jesus said, thomas,
  • 00:08:25.275 --> 00:08:27.578
  • I want to invite you.
  • 00:08:27.578 --> 00:08:28.845
  • Come closer. you touch, touch me physically.
  • 00:08:28.845 --> 00:08:32.015
  • I mean, experience this for yourself.
  • 00:08:32.015 --> 00:08:35.218
  • So right now, the presence
  • 00:08:35.218 --> 00:08:36.954

  • Now, because i believe it's the heart of jesus

  • 00:10:34.805 --> 00:10:38.442

  • 00:10:40.744 --> 00:10:45.315

  • It's jesus' story becoming our story.
  • 00:11:28.225 --> 00:11:30.927
  • And he experienced death, but he also conquered death
  • 00:11:30.927 --> 00:11:34.464
  • And then the resurrection.
  • 00:11:34.464 --> 00:11:36.767
  • And he said, after the holy spirit comes upon you,
  • 00:11:36.767 --> 00:11:39.369
  • You will receive power to be my witnesses.
  • 00:11:39.369 --> 00:11:42.873
  • And the story continued and it's continuing right now.
  • 00:11:42.873 --> 00:11:46.843
