In all 27 books of the New Testament Jesus is alive, available and present as the writer writes.

Not all of them mention the resurrection per se. Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corithians, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, Hebrews, Revelation, Galatians, Ephesians, Colossians, etc.

It might be easier to find out which ones do not mention His resurrection.

Thank you. Isn't it true that the actual story of the resurrection appears only in the Gospels? The other books talk about it and refer to it frequently but the Gospels are the only ones that recreate the entrie story from beginning to end.

I think a good pop-up book is what you are looking for. Seems like the best way to capture the resurrection in all its glory. Imagine opening the page and there's Jesus rising up from the pulpy substrate.

Yes.

The epistles really do more to connect the resurrection with our daily everyday experience.

Mock all you want. Facts are facts.

Reading the Book of John first before Matthew, Mark, and Luke makes it easy to take in the other three books; at least it did for me.

Wouldn't your definition of "fact" allow anybody to declare anything a fact?

Is this God speaking to me here, through His self-appointed messenger? Is this the kind of line of questioning God uses to try to hurt a person's feelings?

Talk about hardball! Wow.

Well, yeah, sometimes God does ask one if he or she is gay, but God already knows what the answer is, but He want the one in question to fess-up and answer the question: Are you gay?!!!
