Question

do u believe jesus died for three days and three nights??????????????????????????

Answer 1

No one has the slightest physical evidence to support a historical Jesus; no artifacts, dwelling, works of carpentry, or self-written manuscripts. All claims about Jesus derive from writings of other people. There occurs no contemporary Roman record that shows Pontius Pilate executing a man named Jesus. Devastating to historians, there occurs not a single contemporary writing that mentions Jesus. All documents about Jesus got written well after the life of the alleged Jesus from either: unknown authors, people who had never met an earthly Jesus, or from fraudulent, mythical or allegorical writings. Although one can argue that many of these writings come from fraud or interpolations, I will use the information and dates to show that even if these sources did not come from interpolations, they could still not serve as reliable evidence for a historical Jesus, simply because all sources derive from hearsay accounts.

Hearsay means information derived from other people rather than on a witness' own knowledge.

Courts of law do not generally allow hearsay as testimony, and nor does honest modern scholarship. Hearsay provides no proof or good evidence, and therefore, we should dismiss it.

If you do not understand this, imagine yourself confronted with a charge for a crime which you know you did not commit. You feel confident that no one can prove guilt because you know that there exists no evidence whatsoever for the charge against you. Now imagine that you stand present in a court of law that allows hearsay as evidence. When the prosecution presents its case, everyone who takes the stand against you claims that you committed the crime, not as a witness themselves, but solely because other people said so. None of these other people, mind you, ever show up in court, nor can anyone find them.

Hearsay does not work as evidence because we have no way of knowing whether the person lies, or simply bases his or her information on wrongful belief or bias. We know from history about witchcraft trials and kangaroo courts that hearsay provides neither reliable nor fair statements of evidence. We know that mythology can arise out of no good information whatsoever. We live in a world where many people believe in demons, UFOs, ghosts, or monsters, and an innumerable number of fantasies believed as fact taken from nothing but belief and hearsay. It derives from these reasons why hearsay cannot serves as good evidence, and the same reasoning must go against the claims of a historical Jesus or any other historical person.

Authors of ancient history today, of course, can only write from indirect observation in a time far removed from their aim. But a valid historian's own writing gets cited with sources that trace to the subject themselves, or to eyewitnesses and artifacts. For example a historian today who writes about the life of George Washington, of course, can not serve as an eyewitness, but he can provide citations to documents which give personal or eyewitness accounts. None of the historians about Jesus give reliable sources to eyewitnesses, therefore all we have remains as hearsay.

So No I Don;t

Answer 2

I believe Jesus died for our sins. If i am correct, Jesus died on Friday evening, and rose Sunday morning. So if you count the days names, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday is was 3 days. But only 2 nights.

Answer 3

Yes,Jesus died one the cross and rose again in three days with death defeated in his hands.

The question you should be asking yourself is do you believe that Jesus died for YOU

Answer 4

Jesus predicted this event Himself.
Matthew 12;40, For as Jonas was three days and three nights
in the whale's belly; so shall the son of man be three days and
three nights in the heart of the earth.
I Corinthians 13;8a, Love never fails!!!!!

Answer 5

You don't continuously die. Maybe you should ask"Do you believe Jesus died and remained dead for three days and nights before he rose from the dead?" But to answer your question yes I do.

Answer 6

Well Jesus did die on the cross,and was in the grave three days and nights, but He was preaching down in the grave at some point and time, also Jewish calendars and the way they begin their time at sundown, could count a little different from our time as we know it today, I`m not sure.

Answer 7

Yes, God abandoned Jesus for three nights and on the third day he rose back from the dead, and God accepted him into his kingdom to sit at his right hand.

Answer 8

This sounds like a Muslim question. they focus only on Jesus saying he would be in the tomb like Jonah was in the whale, but they ignore the several other passages where Jesus said directly that if they kill him, he would rise "on the third day".

And THAT is clearly what happened.

Answer 9

No. He died only once and remained dead for 3 days and nights.

Answer 10

One cannot believe just part of the bible, it is either all the inspired word of God or none of it is. Since Jesus death and resurrection is historical fact, then it has to be true.

Answer 11

Jesus went to Hell for 3 days and 3 nights for our sins , so we would not have too. What will you do for him?
