>Excellent question! And, in what sense of the word does he "live"?
Actually, if the Xian doctrines of Heaven and Hell are correct, then
*everybody* who has ever been born still "lives". So, why is that
special in the case of Jesus?

Mark, don't you know that Jesus was physically resurrected?
I mean, there were actual eyewitnesses! The bible says so, so it
must be true.
Seriously, that "Jesus Lives" bit has always bothered me. I assume that
one could say that "He lives in my heart" but that can not be true.
When a person says that someone lives in their heart they are
really saying that their memory lives on, not the actual
person.
No....back to the ever exciting Ezekiel Prophesy Debate!
