WHAT THE CHURCHES DO NOT TELL ABOUT JESUS SO-CALLED "RESURRECTION"

By: E. L. Victorino C. Geonanga

This text is derived from notes taken during a Bible study session led by the late Teacher Erano Evangelista, associated with the "The Name of God" initiative at thename.ph.
During one of these sessions, Teacher Evangelista brought our attention to an astonishing event recorded in the Bible, coinciding with the day of Jesus' crucifixion—an event that is seldom addressed or discussed by mainstream Churches.
What is this event?
Consider the passage from Matthew 27:50-53:


"And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit.
At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs after Jesus' resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people."
Matthew 27:50-53 NIV


This passage vividly describes a moment when "the earth shook, the rocks split, and the tombs broke open," leading to many deceased holy individuals being resurrected.
This profound and eerie occurrence transpired at the moment of Jesus' death.
Why does this significant event not receive more attention in the Church's propagated Holy Week narratives?
Moreover, why is there no historical record of such a world-altering event?
It is indeed peculiar that this event, where numerous deceased individuals returned to life and were seen by many, does not feature in historical accounts of that era.
Equally puzzling is the absence of any reference to this event in the epistles of the apostles or in the Acts of the Apostles, where the focus is solely on Jesus' resurrection as a singular event.
Teacher Evangelista offers a straightforward explanation:
Jesus did not resurrect from the dead.
He contends that the apostles made up the story of Jesus' resurrection in order to deceive people and hide the real causes of God's abandoning Jesus to a cruel fate.
Some Christian apologists and preachers might argue that the apostles' willingness to face martyrdom for their faith in Jesus lends credibility to their accounts.

However, Teacher Evangelista challenges this notion by comparing it to the conviction of suicide bombers and certain Asian monks who self-immolate for their beliefs, suggesting that martyrdom alone is not a reliable indicator of the truthfulness of one's faith.
