Nobody has ever referred to Him as the late Jesus,
Not even the heathens.
Nowhere in history.
Nowhere has He ever been referred to in the past tense.
He 'is' the Living God!"

Christ most certainly did: with the Roman Centurion Guards on Golgotha Hill [the place of the skull] and He kept it.

the relevant historians.

The evidence is to ...[text shortened]... ything...

This is "false information", surely?

Hi GB, another interesting point is that even though it was in the best interest of the Roman Government and the Sanhedrin, a body was never found.

How do you know the "body was never found"?

Are there Roman Government reports that the body was lost?

Either you truly have never studied the New Testament and its topics, or you're simply having a laugh.

Perhaps it was the case that buried bodies were often lost, so noone thought to report it.
Did you consider that, hu? Did you? Well, did you? No, I didn't think so. You lose, dude.

I'll repeat the same thing to you: you really need to study the topic at hand.
Your statements act like a trumpet loudly announcing your ignorance.
