Product Description
Book Description
The classic text on examining the evidence for the Resurrection. Convinced that the story wasn't true, Frank Morison started to write about Jesus' last days. However, as he studied this crucial period something happened. . . First published in 1930, this is an in-depth exploration of what happened between the death of Jesus and the resurrection as recorded in the Bible. Using many information sources, this is crammed with vital detail that every Christian should know and is also a powerful tool for persuasion of those questioning Christianity. Writing this book changed Morison's life. Will you let it change yours?
From the Back Cover
The strangeness of the Resurrection story had captured Frank Morison's attention, and, influenced by skeptic thinkers at the turn of the century, he set out to prove that the story of Christ's Resurrection was only a myth. His probings, however, led him to discover the validity of the biblical record in a moving, personal way. Who Moved the Stone? is considered by many to be a classic apologetic on the subject of the Resurrection. Morison includes a vivid and poignant account of Christ's betrayal, trial, and death as a backdrop to his retelling of the climactic Resurrection itself. Among the chapter titles are: - The Book That Refused to Be Written - The Real Case Against the Prisoner - What Happened Before Midnight on Thursday - Between Sunset and Dawn - The Witness of the Great Stone - Some Realities of That Far-off Morning -- Who Moved the Stone? is a well-researched book that is as fascinating in its appeal to reason as it is accurate to the truthfulness of the Resurrection.

By Laura (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Who Moved The Stone (Paperback)
A critical exposition of the gospel accounts of Christ's trial, death and resurrection, this text considers whether there is a plausible alternative to the resurrection story - was the trial fair, did the disciples take the body, did Jesus' followers look for him in the wrong tomb? Morrison presents his findings clearly, challenging his readers to look into the gospels for themselves to consider the resurrection and what it means for us if Jesus really did rise from the dead.

By mackattack9988 "mackattack9988" (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Who Moved The Stone (Paperback)
This compelling little book will make you think about Christ's tomb and your faith. Morison started out trying to disprove the Easter story as a rational journalist and ended up doing a 180. He still relies on reason and balancing the written source material for his analysis of the aftermath of the crucifixion. He relies on the Gospel accounts enough that believers will likely be strengthened in their faith while those who are skeptical might remain skeptical. He also seems too ready to find the Gospel accounts non-reconcilable in certain details when they can be reconciled (such as whether the figure who confronted Mary Magdalene at the empty tomb was an angel or not, if there were more than one, etc.). Does a nice job of looking at these events from a variety of perspectives. Morison seems to have left no stone unturned in his examination of the resurrection in Who Moved the Stone.
