He said himself he didn't die on the cross. John 20:17?

Touch me not, for I am not yet ascended to my father? Don't touch him?

He said himself he didn't die on the cross. John 20:17?
He said this after his resurrection.





Jesus died and rested in the grave for parts of 3 days. He did not "ascend to the Father" till after the resurrection and the time spent on earth appearing to his apostles and disciples.














But I agree with you..... he didn't die on a cross....

if you'd like to ask another question regarding your thoughts on those I'll answer it. Report It

Reply:Some kind of weird rule that we, until that point, were unaware of. Something Earthly DARING to touch the Immortal One? (Perhaps)


Something may have hurt the one who came too close? (As when Moses beheld the Face of God, he nearly died of joy)





Most likely #2 speculation. Perhaps you may think of another reason why He may have said that.





He had, at this point, already experienced death. He was newly resurrected. The Ascension occurred 40 days later.
Reply:His earthly body died, but His Godly body remaind.... i dont get your question.
Reply:Do you believe what all John has written? IN the same book you can read how he suffered on the cross died and resurrected and now how he lives for you.
Reply:Where in the world did you get from that scripture that Jesus did not die on the cross? It says that "I have not yet ascended".Ascend means to go or move up word; to go from a lower to a higher degree. to move or climb up word. Where in that does it say that He did not die on the cross? It meant that after He died, He arose from the grave and walked among the people, but He had not ascended in to Heaven yet.
Reply:When Jesus died, he went to hell for three days to get the keys of death and hades back from satan, so he had not yet gone to heaven. He did die on the cross, and he was resurrected on the third day.

Reply:Dude, this is not a question. Don't waste our time. What is your point?
Reply:If you don't believe the Bible...why is it so important to you to disprove it?
Reply:OK?
Reply:the bible isn't meant to be taken completely literally.
Reply:Nonsense. Jesus said this AFTER He died on the cross, was buried, and rose from the dead. At this point He was appearing alive to various people but had not yet returned to heaven where He is today.
Reply:Indeed, it was only after Jesus ascended to our Heavenly Father did the promise of the Holy Spirit be made available, freely and to all those who have faith in Jesus.





Do you believe that you too can receive the free gift of becoming a child of God and the Holy Spirit? Or are you afraid??





Peace,
