Sparko saying "You said that IF Jesus was resurrected he would be shining and everyone would recognize him" is true and I clarified in other post the qualities that the resurrected must have; incorruption, glory, power and change.

Sparko saying "You were claiming that Moses was glowing therefore he was resurrected" is not true; what I said is that Moses is resurrected because he died on the transfiguration because "it is once to die" Hebrews 9:27.
I agree with your statement "Well actually the bible doesn't even say Moses was shining/glowing. It said Jesus was shining/glowing. So where is your excuse now" hence, I stand corrected.

1. It is buried in corruption but raised in incorruption (1Corinthians 15:42)
2. It is raised in glory
(1Corinthians 15:43)
3. It is raised in power
(1Corinthians 15:43)
5. It will changed
(1Corinthians 15:51)
When we read scriptures we find that Jesus did not have all above qualities of the resurrected.

Mark 9:2 After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was transfigured before them. 3 His clothes became dazzling white, whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them. 4 And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus.
Matthew 17:17 After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. 2 There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. 3 Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus.

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostOne thing to consider is that while being prepared for burial (or being entombed) Jesus would have had his head and beard shaved off in accordance with Jewish law. I don't know about you but I've known a couple men who were very hard to recognize after they shaved their beards, especially if you had never seen them without one.
Just food for thought.

Originally posted by Hakeem View PostThe answer to Christianbookworm question " How can someone recognize Jesus if He chooses to not let them recognize Him?" is true that Jesus did not identify himself immediately in public as was the case on the way to Emmaus. Otherwise, Jews would have ensured that he is dead. This explains Jesus not appearing once to even only one of his alleged killers of the Jews and the Romans because Jesus told us he came to the sinners not to the righteous as per Mark 2:17.
Writing " He can also enter a locked room by showing up inside of it. Without knocking or making a different entrance" is not found in the bible. Actually Jesus denied to be a spirit in Luke 24:39.John 20:19New International Version (NIV)
Jesus Appears to His Disciples
19 On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!”

Originally posted by Sparko View PostI am trying to find out why claiming they did not recognize Jesus seems to be something you are using to argue that he was not resurrected. I see no difference in whether he was resurrected or not in whether the disciples would or would not recognize him.
If he was in disguise, then why? Why would he lie about his appearance? Why would he disguise himself then run around for 40 days showing himself to everyone proving he is alive?
Just food for thought.

Had Jesus been dead and resutrected in glory as describled in the Bible, the disciples should have recongnised Jesus IMMEDIATELY. However, this was not the case.
