Incredible & Impossible

Have you ever thought about how incredible the idea of a person rising from the dead?  How you ever thought of the impossibility of this kind of belief?  Well, you wouldn’t be the first.  Throughout history the resurrection of Christ has met with every response possible ranging from sneers to apathy to those that embrace the belief that Jesus did rise from the dead and lives on.  We see this spectrum of opinion in Acts 17:32-33, when it says that “when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked.  But others said, ‘We will hear you again about this.’  But some men joined him and believed…”
