What good does it do for a man to win the whole world, but lose his soul in the process. And what can you pay of your own to retrieve your soul. You have nothing of your own, even the soul you were given by The Triune God.

By the way, they live in Bikini Bottom where the Atomic Bomb (Bikini Atoll, 1946) was tested so they are all mutants from the radiation. That is something that is lost on most viewers since they are almost all children.
To be honest, they were placed there to guard the tomb in case Jesus's disciples were to steal the body. So from their point of view they would not be guarding against "the dead guy" escaping, but against a mob coming to steal the body.
That may be true INITIALLY. But by the third day they had obviously heard all the local gossip and met a number of his disciples. So they would naturally have adopted a more relaxed attitude. The Elders had said the disciples would try to steal the body, but the soldiers knew better. Totally legit.
Didn't they get paid off to say His followers came and took the body? A win? Though I suspect they might have been redeployed to somewhere like Scotland.
@@chrisgorman1652 Dereliction of duty in the Roman legions was an offence punishable by death. This is known by original documents from the time which still exist on stone tablets. Even falling asleep on guard duty would ensure a legionairre would never wake up (he would be executed in his sleep). I very much doubt they would come to any agreement with Christ's followers for any amount of money, not that most followers of Christ had enough money to bribe anyone anyhow. Money is no good if you're dead. The guarding of a well known political prisoner's body was taken very seriously indeed and the guards would most likely have been put to death following the events at Christ's tomb (although the Bible does not say either way). The Bible also talks a few times about the execution of guards who had lost prisoners on other occasions, including the escape of Paul and his companions from prison, when the guard was going to commit suicide in preference to a humiliating execution.
@@andymanaus1077 It was the Jewish leaders and the Romans that came to the agreement to quell any "Christ has risen" talk from His followers as that would look bad for both.
Many, many, many years ago, and I saved it, there was an editorial cartoon in the San Diego "Union" showing two guards walking away from the tomb, and one saying to the other, "Relax. Who will even care in 2000 years?" Knowing how liberal the UT is now, I doubt very much they would publish that. (I quit them a couple of years ago when they ran two articles about the claim that men can get pregnant. I wrote them and told them exactly why I was guitting them. I even asked the editor, "How much do YOU spend each month on tampons?" The publisher is a man.)
I had a subscription to the SD U-T years ago, too. Even had a liberal friend who worked there as a photographer. They did have some excellent writers over the years, though. Remember John Sinor?

The whole time they were saying how easy the guard job is, I was TOTALLY expecting Jesus to be silently sneaking away on the background, like a cartoon character.
Saw a cartoon (drawn by a Protestant minister) showing a couple of disciples standing outside the open tomb and looking in, and another figure, obviously drawn to be Jesus standing behind them with His hands on the shoulders saying, "Hey guys. What are we looking at here?"
According to Pilate who talked to the head guard, they were all knocked out once the two women approached due to some sort of blinding light, the Bible explains that angels appeared and the timing coincides
Dear Babylon Bee, if you read the resurrection account in Matthew's Gospel, it's clear that Pilate told the chief priests and Pharisees that they had their own guards (Jewish temple guards), that they could secure it themselves. It wasn't Roman guards at the tomb, but the henchmen of the chief priests.
Jesus also said that all the worlds dead would resurrect and not just him Don't bother contradicting me because I've read it myself And, don't ask me for its specific location as you should know already
Both had guards at different locations, the Roman guards were more involved and their "director" (I forget Roman ranks) on duty testified to a miracle, not having seen the Resurrection due to getting knocked out by a supernatural event
You missed an opportunity to have someone sitting on top of the tomb, light beams coming off of him and holding a flaming sword. "Hey. How's it going? Everything good? Me, I'm just waiting on someone. Should be here any minute. Oh, look um, you guys can stay... but I'm on a bit of a schedule, alright? So no talking when she gets here. That okay with you guys? Of course it is." One of the guards: "maybe it's like T'rex and can't see us if we don't move."
Dereliction of duty - check Failure to obey a lawful order - check. Loss of the Messiah - check. Yep. They're going to end up standing in front of the First Sergeant's desk.
It would be funny if they were also the prison guards in Acts. At least they had an excuse, unlike Epstine's guards. I wonder what their testimony was, did they even witness the angels before fainting etc.?
Yahweh was one of several late Bronze early Iron Age gods that the early Israelites followed, along with Baal. Yahweh and Baal were two of the sons of the Sumerian god El, in ancient Ugaritic texts. Eventually Yahweh was adopted as their main and then the only god, adopting the characteristics of the other gods. From this, Christianity and then Islam emerged. Historically, many scholars consider Jesus to have been an apocalyptic prophet, one of many from ~200 BC to his time, and bit after. He expected the imminent end, as did Paul after and some of the earliest Church Fathers. This did not happen, of course. There are also ~2000 religions that we know of in our long written history, with many more gods. Each can be shown to be a product of it's time and place, based on local myths, legends and ideas.

Three crosses stood, But only one stood for me. At a place that was called Mount Calvary. A place I will never visit or see, But the place where GOD REMEMBERED ME ❤❤❤
Yesheua is made up by haters of Christ. Of course, he uses it for good and it now allows people to come to him who never would have. But there is zero textual evidence that he was ever called "Yeshua". Luke 2:21 says that the angel Gabriel gave him the name "Jesus" or Iessous, since the J would not have been pronounced as in modern English. The angel Gabriel is not limited to conjectures from scholars on Aramaic. Numerous times in the Bible (for example in Daniel) characters are given dual names if they have a name that was translated from one language to another. The name "Yahahshua" was first invented by renaissance occultists but they were embarrassed when it was proven that this wasn't a real name. So they changed it to "Yehoshua" to cover their tracks, but then it was found that this name was rarely used in Judea of the time of Jesus, so then they changed it to "Yeshua" because that just happens to be the most common Aramaic name that sounds a little similar to Jesus. Guess what? NONE of that counts as evidence that anyone called Jesus "Yeshua" when his name was given directly by the angel of God!

The movie “Risen” has an interesting take on what it might have been like to be the guards at the tomb during the Resurrection. Let’s just say that they were a little freaked out…
I recommend that movie to everyone. I taught College Latin after 40 years as an attorney, I showed this in class near Easter time saying, "This is Cultural Literacy." At the end they sat there, stunned.

"Jesus Christ.... this job is so easy!" LOL 😂
Thank you for bringing the Gospel in humorous form :) God bless you. Chris is king. Christ is risen!
Happy Holy week everyone!
Humor is such a powerful tool. Praise The Son Of Man on this most holy of holy weeks....
That's the son of God . Big G ❤️👑💪🙏
“Whom are we guarding”? The Son of God. ✝️
He was using Crocs as his throwing sandals. Too funny!
I’m impressed you got Pilum for the bit.
The soldiers should listen to,
"Oh Happy Day".
That should cheer them up!
The Roman guards are like stormtroopers. They couldnt hit the tree with rocks and they certainly missed seeing a Risen King. Typical gaurds.
Won't be long now. Maranatha!! 🙏
If you were in the U.S. Army (back when it was the U.S. Army), you can imagine the write up for the Army Commendation Medal for these brave Soldiers.
Blessed & Joyous Easter, Alleluia He is Risen as He said.
Three crosses stood, But only one stood for me. At a place that was called Mount Calvary. A place I will never visit or see, But the place where GOD REMEMBERED ME ❤❤❤
Is this from a song/poem?
@@sulamitalovesJesus No, I wrote it myself. ❤🕊⚘

Happy Easter everyone.
You forgot to "fall down as though dead. " But hilarious, of course. "We were recruited, what? XIV, XV years ago?" 😆
Alleluia He is risen!!!
Happy resurrection Sunday!
Happy Easter Everyone 🙏🛐✝️🇭🇲He Has Risen 🕊
Very authentic Roman gear. The 2-part spears were authentic!
I bet even Jesus loved this video 😂😂😂. Live, love, laugh, and educate...
I hope that grammar bit was a nod to Life of Brian, because if it was it was pretty clever!
What comes next?
Pilates with Pontius?
👈🏻👈🏻🤣
i'll see myself out.
Biggus diccus?
@le13579 magnum phallus
😂😂😂
Soldiers throwing rocks to pass the time... some things never change.
Happy Blessed Easter, Babylon Bee, their families, & viewers! 🕊✝🙏🌷🐇💐
*_Monday Morning_*
Praetor: "Oh, Styx and Hades, what do you mean 'something' showed up and rolled the tomb stone away? What 'something'?!"
Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!
I was waiting for Travis to walk by and say hey guys who opened that tomb and they turn around and it's open and they're like 😮
He has risen, he has risen indeed! Yeshua, literal translation..... Our Savior!
Thank you for using His real name.
@@wwhinson Absolutely!
Yesheua is made up by haters of Christ. Of course, he uses it for good and it now allows people to come to him who never would have. But there is zero textual evidence that he was ever called "Yeshua".
Luke 2:21 says that the angel Gabriel gave him the name "Jesus" or Iessous, since the J would not have been pronounced as in modern English. The angel Gabriel is not limited to conjectures from scholars on Aramaic. Numerous times in the Bible (for example in Daniel) characters are given dual names if they have a name that was translated from one language to another.
The name "Yahahshua" was first invented by renaissance occultists but they were embarrassed when it was proven that this wasn't a real name. So they changed it to "Yehoshua" to cover their tracks, but then it was found that this name was rarely used in Judea of the time of Jesus, so then they changed it to "Yeshua" because that just happens to be the most common Aramaic name that sounds a little similar to Jesus. Guess what? NONE of that counts as evidence that anyone called Jesus "Yeshua" when his name was given directly by the angel of God!
@@jaycampbell6402 Tell that the Messianic Jews. Sorry, but Jesus is just a poor translation.
Yahweh was one of several late Bronze early Iron Age gods that the early Israelites followed, along with Baal. Yahweh and Baal were two of the sons of the Sumerian god El, in ancient Ugaritic texts. Eventually Yahweh was adopted as their main and then the only god, adopting the characteristics of the other gods. From this, Christianity and then Islam emerged. Historically, many scholars consider Jesus to have been an apocalyptic prophet, one of many from ~200 BC to his time, and bit after. He expected the imminent end, as did Paul after and some of the earliest Church Fathers. This did not happen, of course. There are also ~2000 religions that we know of in our long written history, with many more gods. Each can be shown to be a product of it's time and place, based on local myths, legends and ideas.
Thank you for giving us something to laugh about on this most serious of holidays.
Christ has risen!
Thank you for this! It is funny, heartwarming, and gets you in the feels!
They wouldn't have had beards but, I love the grammar lesson. Latin is all about the grammar.
Christos Anesti!!!
Vaistinu voskrese!
Vos estis decepti. ❤
Thank you B
The movie “Risen” has an interesting take on what it might have been like to be the guards at the tomb during the Resurrection. Let’s just say that they were a little freaked out…
I recommend that movie to everyone. I taught College Latin after 40 years as an attorney, I showed this in class near Easter time saying, "This is Cultural Literacy." At the end they sat there, stunned.
@@tereseshaw7650 As a Latin teacher, did you show them the “Romans go home” scene from “Monty Python’s The Life of Brian?”
Yes--but not on the 1st day. I gave a brief look and then said that in a month they would get the joke. l@@robertbusek30
Happy Easter Babylon Bee.
Remember, it doesn't and well for those 2. 😊
