I was sent a video created by  @Paulogia  in which he responds to three apologists that critique his doubts that Jesus was buried in a tomb. In my video, I provide not so much a systematic rebuttal but rather put things into historical perspective. I do not provide incontestable proof that Jesus was buried in the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea but rather why I believe it is most probable that tradition is correct.Please visit me at https://www.stephenjbedard.com/apologeticsConsider supporting me through http://www.patreon.com/hopesreasonFollow me ay http://www.x.com/sjbedard and http://www.facebook.com/hopesreason and http://www.instagram.com/sjbedard

Some Christians have recently been pushing back on the command to love our neighbour. They point out concern that this could lead to tolerating sin and they suggest there are limits on how far this goes.
