Wright takes Crossley to task as follows... 'Again, Crossley concludes his key discussion by saying that a (presumably non-bodily) vision ‘would strongly imply that Jesus’ message had been vindicated......third, that a non-bodily vision of someone recently dead would prove nothing about the ‘validity’ or ‘vindication’ of the ideas they had held and taught during their lifetime.’.
Has Wright read the Book of Acts? Acts 7 54 When they heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him. 55 But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. 56 "Look," he said, "I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God." Did Stephen really see a bodily Jesus in Heaven standing at the right had of God? Or did the author of Acts think that claiming to 'see' Jesus standing at the right hand of God was a vindication of Jesus, and that this 'non-bodily vision' proved that Jesus had been unjustly killed? |
