Bones of Contention

Sometimes unbelievers understand what is important to our faith even better than we who believe. While we argue finer points of theology, they identify the foundation truths and seek to undermine them. Recently the news has reported that the tomb and coffin of the Lord Jesus has been found and that there is evidence from that tomb that he was married to Mary Magdalene and fathered a son. If that tomb and coffin are indeed the tomb and coffin of the Lord Jesus, then where does that leave all our arguments about justification, the new nature or the law/grace issue? They become moot, even less than moot; they become silly.

Some 150 or so years ago, the Enemy laid siege to another foundation stone of gospel truth when he, by the voice of scientists, took aim at the creatorhood of God. Darwin and his scientific descendents have pounded away at that single truth for several generations now, with the devastating effect of the weak “gospels” we see prevalent in our nation. Sadly, even some otherwise faithful preachers have given some ground in this area, trying to find a way to reconcile the Doctrine of Evolution with the Doctrine of Divine Creation. In so doing, they undermine every other word of Scripture.

It is interesting to note that in both issues, the Enemy has assaulted the truth by digging up bones – bones of contention. The Enemy has sought to undermine the truth of life by an appeal to the record of death.

The Bible is not a book of history, but it records two historical events, which, if proven untrue, make the rest of Scripture worthless: God’s creation of the world and the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Deny either of these truths, and the whole of gospel truth comes crashing down. If Darwin was right, then there was no first Adam, and there is no Last Adam. If that coffin contains the bones of Jesus, then we are of all men most miserable and our gospel has made us false witnesses of God.

But we believe that in six days God made the heavens and the earth and all that in them is; and we believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures and that on the third day he rose from that grave never to return to it; and we believe that on some day to come, the God who made the heavens and the earth will judge this world by the One he raised from the dead, and that on that day, the only safe place to be is “in Christ,” and being in Him will not involve being in a tomb somewhere in the middle east.
