Some believe that he was literally resurrected; some believe symbolic. Some of Jesus' disciples did not recognize the resurrected Jesus. Some religions believed that he was resurrected in spirit only.Answer:The Swoon Theory: This theory dismisses the resurrection by contending that Jesus never really died on the cross; instead He merely fainted and was later revived. The Twin Theory: This theory contends that Jesus had an identical twin that took His place on the cross.The Muslim Theory: From a Muslim perspective, Jesus was never crucified and, thus, never resurrected.The Watchtower Theory: The Jehovah Witnesses claim Jesus was not physically resurrected but was recreated as an invisible spirit creature. They assert that a physical resurrection would not have been a tremendous triumph; it would have been a hopeless humiliation.
What are some biblical scriptures that back up the young earth theory?
Other than Genesis 1 and John 1?Believing and seeking support for the young earth theory is exciting, especially for those who really explore the question deeply. However, do keep one thing in mind. The young earth theory was originally inspired by scripture; it is not an independent theory that just ordinarily developed out of science. So it is good to realize that when you uncover scriptures that 'back up' the theory, these are not independent truths that can be used as evidence (in the usual sense) that the theory is true. In essence, the scriptures are the theory. This is just an invitation to think and explore deeply and carefully.
What are the different theories for how God inspired the writers of the Bible?
The Bible has no theory of inspiration. It simply affirms that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. The Bible, like Jesus, must be accepted by faith. As humans, we have developed theories seeking to understand divine inspiration.*Natural intuition theory sees inspiration as a higher development of that natural insight into truth that all persons possess to some degree and geniuses to a greater degree. This view makes all works equally inspired, in spite of the fact that they may be contradictory. It makes the Bible a human, or natural book, rather than a supernatural Book.*Mechanical dictation theory claims God literally dictated the words of the Bible to the biblical writers. This view is not consistent with God's way of relating to persons and implies that all of the Bible should have the same literary style.*The general Christian theory of inspiration says the illumination of the Holy Spirit is experienced by all believers. This overlooks the problem of opposing viewpoints among believers and reduces biblical writers to the level of all Christian interpretation and proclamation.*Partial inspiration theory says inspiration is limited to certain parts of the Bible. What the writers would have known naturally and incidental matters are not necessarily inspired. This contradicts the statements of Scripture that all Scripture is inspired*Levels of inspiration theory claims that God used different levels of control and different times in the person of inspiration. Assigning such levels of inspiration is arbitrary, based on human judgment, not divine actions.*Infallible theory states that the Bible as a whole is without any errors because it is in its entirety the Word of God. Usually those who hold this view are careful to distinguish between the original manuscripts and the present form of the Bible. Each of the differences are harmonized by some type of explanation.*Verbal inspiration theory says that the Holy Spirit inspired the biblical writers to choose the exact words to convey the message of God. Many passages of Scripture support the idea of verbal inspiration. Some have discredited this view because it does not relate to the differences in the personalities of biblical writers.*Dynamic inspiration theory suggests that the Holy Spirit had control over the process of inspiration, but He allowed the individuals to express their personalities in the communication of God's message. Those who criticize this view do so on the basis that the view does not guarantee inerrancy.Phrasing a theory is really secondary to the important fact that the Bible is the authoritive Word of God and to the calling of obeying that Word.

Which theory of inspiration provides us with assurance that the Bible is both trustworthy and authoritative?
A:Conservative Christians believe that the Bible was inspired by God and is therefore the very word of God. This theory provides assurance that it is both trustworthy and reliable. If the theory is found to be invalid, then the Bible can not be assumed to be both trustworthy and reliable. If the theory is correct, we should never find even one contradiction in the Bible, yet there are many. Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) dealt with this very subject in analysing the genealogies of Jesus, when he said, "Inspiration does not guarantee historicity or reconcilability; otherwise God should have inspired the two evangelists to give us the same record." On the issue of reliability and authoritativeness, he went on to say that there is little likelihood that either genealogy (Matthew's and Luke's) is strictly historical.Answer:It is called "Infallible Theory." This theory states that the Holy Spirit inspired the biblical writers to chose the exact words to convey the message of God. Many passages of Scripture support the idea of verbal inspiration. Some have discredited this view because it does not relate to the differences in the personalities of biblical writers leading to another popular "theory" called the "Dynamic Inspiration Theory." This theory suggests that the Holy Spirit had control over the process of inspiration, but He allowed the individuals to express their personalities in communicating God's message. Those who criticize this view do so on the basis that the view does not guarantee inerrancy.
