The clearest possible Christian teaching is that God raised Jesus from the dead.

If Mary Magdalene found Jesus' body, but the disciples were still convinced, by seeing Jesus in post-resurrection mode, that God had raised him from the dead, it might not have made much difference. But it is a hypothetical question, and who can tell? It is not what was reported by the early Christians.

Most of the Christian message, as taught by both Peter and Paul, would be meaningless if God did not raise Jesus from the dead. While we would still have Jesus' teachings, as found in the gospels, they would not have the ending anticipated by Jesus.

The evidence is that Mary Magdalene did not find Jesus' body, so I am happy to accept that, and furthermore, to accept that God raised Jesus from the dead.
