If you believe the material world is evil and you need secret knowledge to escape it, you’re not following Jesus.
You’re following Plato with a Christian vocabulary.
And Plato didn’t rise from the dead.
The resurrection matters because bodies matter. Jesus didn’t come to help us escape creation. He came to redeem it. That’s not a small difference. That’s everything.
