Which is Right? The Church of the Holy Sepulcher or the Garden Tomb

There are two sites in Jerusalem that both claim to be where Jesus was crucified, buried and rose from the dead: Which is the actual place of those historic events, and how should it affect us? I take a personal look at both The Church of the Holy Sepulcher and the Garden Tomb (also known as Gordon's tomb) and see what we can find out.
A pastor, teacher, and follower of yeshua hamashiach (Jesus Christ), I was raised in a non Christian home and came to accept Christ when I was 19. To say He radically changed my life would be an understatement. In the years since I've grown deeper in my walk and love of God, but I've also realized that there are many who claim to be followers of his who don't seem to show it, or even know what that means. Jesus was incredibly practical, real, and down to earth, and if we actually look at His Word- the Bible- we'll find that God does speak to us today and will help us with current every day issues.
So these are the issues, the moments, the happenings that are burning on my heart and setting it on fire. Thus, the Burning Bush.

This video has been getting a lot of attention and views lately. Thank you for watching. If you would like a much more indepth discussion of that day, what really happened historically, details that we miss due to the passage of time and changes of culture, and a detailed look at both locations and their merits or lack of them, you will likely love the book The Weekend that Changed the World (They Mystery of Jerusalem's Empty Tomb) by Peter Walker. Fantastic book

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I want to tell you, with the greatest love and respect, that this Garden Tomb is not the burial place of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is a symbolic remembrance designated in the 19th century by Evangelical Christians. The Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem is the location of the original tomb. This was the recognized location of his tomb since the First Century, and has always been recognized as such. A church was erected over the tomb in order to protect it, hallow it, and preserve it as the holiest place in Christendom, being the center of the world's conflicts. Every year at Pascha, Easter, the Holy Spirit comes down with flames (which do not burn), just as in Pentecost, inside the tomb. This has been happening since the time of Christ. This your birthright as a believer in Christ: this is your heritage: this is Christ's gift to the world.

The Church is no different than the monastery in the Sinai peninsula that is suppose to be where the Jews found the Holy Mountain, WRONG!! The Holy Mountain of Sinai is in Saudi Arabia where the split rock where the water miracle is. I'm sorry for the many people who have been tricked by the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, but the burial site was the Garden Tomb which is outside the city where all burials happen. I wouldn't believe any pagan from Rome to choose the site of Jesus' burial, who also chose the Sinai Peninsula for the Mt. Sinai.

I think it's sad that they changed it from the original. They built a gaudy church and put those gaudy decorations around (sorry if that offends anyone) something holy that should have been left alone. I'm just not into all of those "trappings" of some religions. That money could be used for good instead of all of the silver and gold and the fancy buildings. It's just not necessary to worship God in my opinion. I'm so glad that you went to both places. Everything you said makes sense. It's a shame we don't know the exact place for sure, but seeing the garden tomb is like seeing the Bible come alive. How I wish I could see it myself. I got chills seeing it through your eyes, thank you so much for showing it to us.

During the time of Christ, the tomb was outside the city. The city was expanded and ,the walls then enclosed Christ’s tomb. When Jerusalem was destroyed, the Roman ruler insisted that they build a statue of the god Jupiter on the site of Christ’s tomb. That’s how you know it It was excavated under the church of the holy sepulcher

Myself I think it is in the garden tomb.

@CRAZYHORSE19682003

The Garden Tomb was carved in the Iron Age, about 600 years before Jesus lived so biblically it has a ZERO percent chance of being Jesus tomb. The garden is from the time of the crusades, the cistern, from the time of the crusades. I will mention one small bit of scripture everyone seems to forget. In the books of Luke and John when they went to the tomb of Jesus it SPECIFICALLY says they had to stoop down to look inside the tomb. Look at the entrance to the Garden Tomb, it CLEARLY isn't the tomb mentioned in the gospels. The Garden Tomb is literally a tourist trap for gullible people.

Church of the Holy Sepulcher is the true burial place of The Lord Jesus Christ✝️❤️

This issue was the beginning of my deconstruction from christianity. I lived in Israel for a year. I learned enough to have to undo a lot of misinformation.

Neither is right they're both decoys

Thank you for making this video. I visited The Church of the Holy Sepulcher in 2011 and was confused by what I saw. I've often wondered which location might be accurate. I'm planning another visit this summer and as you suggest, I think I may go see both locations. God bless.

Great video. I just want to say there is no legitimate question as to where Jesus died and then rose from the dead. The sites were never lost and then found again. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre wasn't built where they thought their "best guess" was, or anything like that.

Fascinating. There are many arguments on both sides. It’s worth further investigation.

@user-ny8iv1vg2p

Thank you for this video it is my dream to see the place

You can thank Ron Wyatt for cleaning in and around the Garden Tomb to make it what it is today. The city added all of the niceties outside, and boarded the area where Ron's team found the Arc of the Covenant.
