•1过了安息日，抹大拉的马利亚和雅各的母亲马利亚并撒罗米，买了香膏，要去膏耶稣的身体。2七日的第一日清早，出太阳的时候，她们来到坟墓那里，3彼此说：“谁给我们把石头从墓门滚开呢？”4那石头原来很大，她们抬头一看，却见石头已经滚开了。5她们进了坟墓，看见一个少年人坐在右边，穿着白袍，就甚惊恐。
那些想要怀疑耶稣复活真实性的人，往往会指出四部福音书之间的差异。例如，当时在坟墓里的天使是一个还是两个?路加福音说有两个，马可福音记载有一个。实际上，在叙述中存在差异的情况反而使证人的证词更加可信。犯罪现场的调查人员从目击证人口里收集证据时，他们总是试图从不同的目击者那里拼凑出所发生的事情。这些调查人员会告诉你，他们听到的故事差异很大，这取决于人们看到了什么，什么时候从什么角度看到的。事实上，当所有证人在所有细节上都一样时，他们反而会认为这是值得怀疑的。证人是否提前串供以统一口径?这就是为什么调查人员在询问证人之前会把他们分开。见证了耶稣复活的人，在不同的福音书里讲述了同样的故事，但并不是所有的细节都一样。
比如，马可只提到了其中一个天使，或许是因为当他听那些妇女讲述她们的见证时，她们都把注意力集中在说话的那个天使身上，而没有提到另一个天使。或许所有的妇女是一起到达坟墓，或许她们可能是在相同时间，而不是在同一个时刻。马太提到一个天使坐在坟墓外面的石头上。马可提到天使是在坟墓里面。如果像路加记载的那样有两个天使，那就很可能一个在里面，一个在外面。马克只提到了里面的那个。虽然每个故事都有不同的细节，但实际上没有一个故事是不一致的、是矛盾的。没有矛盾，只有不同的目击者讲述了他们的所见所闻。
关键是耶稣确实从死里复活了。许多见证人报告了这件事。旧约圣经预言了这件事。耶稣复活后亲自向许多门徒显现，当福音书写成的时候，他们中的很多人还活着。
（林前15章17节，“17基督若没有复活，你们的信便是徒然，你们仍在罪里，18就是在基督里睡了的人也灭亡了。19我们若靠基督只在今生有指望，就算比众人更可怜。”）
祷告:主耶稣，让我的心永远不怀疑你复活的故事，或它的意义。你是神的儿子。我的罪被赦免了。总有一天我会像你一样从死里复活!阿们。
Mark 16:1-5: When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. 2 Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb 3 and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?” 4 But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. 5 As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.(NIV)
People who want to discredit the resurrection story will point to discrepancies between the four gospel accounts. For example, was there one angel, or two? Luke’s story has two, while Mark has one. The fact that there are differences in the account actually gives credence to the witnesses. Investigators at the scene of a crime will try to piece together what happened from witnesses. They will tell you that the stories they hear vary greatly, depending on what people saw and when and from what angle. In fact, when all the witnesses agree on all the details, they will think that something is fishy. Did the witnesses talk together to “get their facts straight?” That’s why investigators will separate witnesses before they question them. The eyewitnesses of the resurrection tell the same story, but not all the details are the same.
For example, did Mark choose to mention only one angel because when he heard the women tell their story, they were focused on the angel who spoke and didn’t mention the other? Or did all the women meet at the tomb as one group, or did they perhaps arrive about the same time and not exactly at the same time? Matthew mentions an angel sitting on the stone, which was outside. Mark places the angel inside. If there were two angels, as Luke records, there was probably one inside and one outside. Mark only mentions the one inside. While there are different details in every story, none of the stories actually disagree. There are no contradictions, only different witnesses relating what they saw and heard.
The point is that Jesus really did rise from the dead. The eyewitnesses reported it. The Scriptures in the Old Testament prophesied it. Jesus appeared himself to many of the disciples who were still alive when these gospels were written.
Prayer: Lord Jesus, let my heart never doubt the story of your resurrection, or what it means. You are the Son of God. My sins are forgiven. Someday I will rise in glory as you rose from the dead! Amen.
