I THINK NOT. CHRIST HAS THE POWER TO BACK US UP.

A couple of points this morning,a lie  that exist till this day.Soldiers watching over the grave site of Jesus,after his disappearance,went into the city and met with the chief priest of the Jewish people.They assembled,took council,with elders of the church. They gave large amounts of money to the soldiers to tell a lie about what happened to Jesus's body.They said His disciples had come in the night and stolen the body ,while the soldiers slept.Not a good lie,because if they slept,how would they have known the disciples stole his body?
These same disciples that hid during the execution,suddenly had the nerve to raid a tomb right under the noses of Roman Soldiers. I think not.There seems to have been many writings ,hundreds of years after Christ that continued to spread that lie.And in effect it is still the argument of  Atheist and other religions to this day.
Totally ignoring the fact that over 500 eyewitnesses had seen Jesus after his death and burial,before His going up into heaven.Even some of the disciples were doubtful about the events ....but....were later convinced when they saw Jesus themselves.(All scripture in Matthew chapter 28: vss 11-18.) I must add that even after Jesus was seen some doubted. My previous comment was about the fact that in vs 18...Jesus came and spake unto them.
Okay ,now my second point. VSS 19 and 20 we see a reason Christians witness to people.Christ himself tells us GO,teach all nations.A very short but powerful comment i must add is that VS 18 also says that ALL power is given to Jesus in heaven and in earth. 
It is with that degree of power ,that we as Christians can  witness with power.Christ has the power to back us up. It is for His glory ,not ours.
My prayer:Heavenly Father,convict all men of their sin. Show them the error of their ways. Use us as you will to help guide them to you.I n Christ name...AMEN.
