If we found Jesus’ bones it would be a sad day for Christians.
1Cor. 15:12 ¶ Now if Christ is preached, that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
1Cor. 15:13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has been raised;
1Cor. 15:14 and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith also is vain.
1Cor. 15:15 Moreover we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified against God that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact the dead are not raised.
1Cor. 15:16 For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised;
1Cor. 15:17 and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still in your sins.
1Cor. 15:18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
1Cor. 15:19 If we have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men most to be pitied.
None. Can you imagine how impossible it would be to link bones to Jesus? “Hey look! We found a dead guy!” Well guess what? Two people died in the same way as Jesus on that very day. We’ve found crucifixion victims with the nails still stuck in their limbs. Find bones and CLAIM they’re Jesus, sure, you might convince a few gullible people who wanted to be convinced, but the discerning mind knows that the time for finding Jesus’ body has long passed.
In the New Testament, the prevailing theory of sceptics was that the Roman guards fell asleep, and the disciples stole the body. THAT was the time to look for Him. Regardless of whether or not that story is true, the disappearance of Jesus from His tomb is the moment the chain of transmission broke. Now, the most you can find are the broken remains of a crucified man, which would hardly be a groundbreaking discovery.
What bones? They’re in heaven.
Jesus’ fleshly “body” was consumed as a “whole burnt offering” to God (Hebrews 10:5-10).
Jesus was buried in a narrowed tomb not with any family members.
I wouldn’t believe it personally, if they did. I’ve seen God working in the life He’s gifted me too clearly on many occasions.
? what difference does an impossible hypothetical make?
Jesus rose, from The Dead, so finding his bones, would be impossible.
Bri Bri Lynn I wouldn’t believe it Either. Jesus as we know isn’t dead He is alive.
There is no Bones, Jesus is alive, I have already. Said. That he was alive, So it will be impossible to find. His Bones. More fake News. There is a lot of fake News About Jesus. By those who don’t know him, as in having a Personal Relationship him, for starters. The ball prints are in his hands and. Feet, and the spear pierced Side, So no way Did they find Jesus Bones. He is alive, the post is fake,. There is nothing to comment about its fake plain and simple.
Wouldn’t it take away the significance of his resurrection?
Haha, I remember this story! They totally disproved it 🙂 but if they did find it, it would mean that it is not finished and that Judaism is still in play
if there’s a tomb and bones, jesus never resurrected, if there’s no resurrection, salvation is questionable at best at least through the atonement blood of jesus.
You can’t find something thst isn’t there. If His bones were found it would be evidence against him, not for Him. This is silly
It would make absolutely no difference and it would be impossible to prove the origin of the bones. People always find entrepreneural ways of making money and writing such a book is an example of this
Last time I heard His body ascended to Heaven, and when He returns , same bones will be with Him.
He rose again, anyone with an ounce of faith would understand that he took his bones with him ?
it wouldn’t make any difference to me, since my faith doesn’t rest on relics
Why are we looking for Jesus’ bones in the tomb when He already resurrected in a glorified body. He didnt even experienced decay…
The Pharisees would have paraded the “bones” of Jesus if there were any.
Those bones are sitting at the right hand of God
In other news…I saw a dog today.
I have seen him face to face. He is very much alive and well.
and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith also is vain. Moreover we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified against God that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact the dead are not raised.

None … It would be false info
“Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; He has risen!” – Luke 24:5. Why indeed would anyone seek the bones of Jesus? Only one reason….to discredit the resurrection. The foundation of our hope.
There is too much overwhelming other evidence to prove that Jesus Christ is God.
