Jesus Reversed the Irretrievable Chemical Changes in Death

 

We all know that once we die, we can never rise up again due to the irreversible breakdown of our body chemical composition 

How then was Jesus Christ, the only person known before and after Him, whether a prophet or non-prophet, able to reverse the irreversible chemistry of death? Jesus was the only person who was able to instantly do this. He clearly demonstrated His awesome powers over death in Lazarus who was already dead and buried for 4 days by merely crying out in a loud voice for even the grave to open up for Lazarus to rise up from the dead. (John 11:1–44). 

There were at least 3 other people Jesus raised up from the dead. They were the widow's son at Nain (Luke 7:11-17), Jairus' daughter (Matthew 9:18-26; Mark 5:21-43; Luke 8:40-56) as far as I could find in the Bible. It could be much more unrecorded.  

It was simply awesome, frighteningly awesome in our current knowledge of all biological sciences, biochemistry and all branches of chemistry as far as we know how the molecules of death were able to move on their own accord, come together again when they have already decomposed, and seeped irreversibly into the burial soil and started to reassemble themselves once again at the command of just Jesus voice. Of course, Jesus did not belong to this world. He came from another world among at least 10 trillion, trillion other worlds out there in His Father’s Kingdoms.

But first, let me describe the chemistry that occurs immediately when the soul leaves the physical body. 

In an Oxford Handbook on Forensic Medicine by Johathan Wyatt, Tim Square, Guy Norfolk, and Jason Payne-James I used when I was reading for a course in Forensic Science in Toxicology at the University of Cambridge in 2020 just before the Covid pandemic broke out, most of it is summarized here, and I quote:

The biological and chemical changes that take place on death are all irreversible, and yet Jesus was able to order all the chemicals of decomposition to instantly obey Him to automatically move by themselves and come together again to reassemble themselves into living molecules. We can only adore and worship Him to the highest that angels even sing about Him. We have no clue how this was done.

Changes after death: Decomposition

The first visible change to the body within 15 to 20 minutes after death—is pallor mortis, in which the body begins to pale.  Chemical changes began to take place between the actin and the myocin in the muscles causing stiffness to the body called ‘rigor mortis’ for about two to six hours after death. Rigor mortis adds to the difficulty of performing an autopsy or preparing a body for a funeral, as the body loses the flexibility it had during life.

Livor mortis, also known as lividity or hypostasis, then sets in as gravity pulls the blood to the lower areas of the body resulting in a red/purple coloration. Livor mortis is commonly seen between 2 and 4 h post-mortem, but it may begin as early as little as 30 min post-mortem.

Putrefaction:

Bacterial decomposition then begins. The typical destruction of a body after death by bacteria is termed as putrefaction. Bacteria from the bowel (e.g. clostridia) and lungs thrive in the anaerobic environment and spread around the body.  The process is understandably accelerated in patients who die from generalized sepsis as bacteria have already gained a head start and the body temperature tends to be elevated at the time of death, creating more favourable conditions for the bacteria to multiply. Similarly, putrefaction occurs more rapidly in bodies left in hot ambient conditions and in individuals with obesity. Bacteria utilize the protein-rich content of the blood – putrefaction may be delayed when there has been significant haemorrhage prior to death

The putrefaction process:

There is no fixed sequence of events as a body decomposes: considerable variation occurs between individuals and according to the ambient temperature. As a result, analysis of the process is not usually helpful in trying to make an accurate estimation of the time interval since death occurred. Bodies which are left in below-freezing conditions may be preserved into the long-term without evidence of significant putrefaction. Bodies which are left in water tend to decompose more slowly. The process of decomposition tends to follow a characteristic pattern.

1. At standard room temperatures, the first external evidence is usually greenish skin discoloration of the right iliac fossa, occurring within the first few days. The green discoloration becomes more prominent and tends to spread to involve the remainder of the anterior abdominal wall and other parts of the body during the subsequent days.

2. The abdominal wall, scrotum, and face becomes distended (often grotesquely so) by gases such as methane and offensive-smelling hydrogen sulphide produced by bacteria. There may be palpable crepitus. The tongue may also swell, the eyes protrude, and bloody fluid exude from the mouth and nostrils (‘purging’) – some of these features may be mistaken for injuries involved in causing death.

3. About a week after death, bacteria spread through the venous system, resulting in characteristic ‘marbling’ of the skin (reflecting intravascular haemolysis) – branching dark-red (becoming green) lines.

4. As time passes, the hair becomes loose and superficial fluid-filled skin blisters appear.

5. As weeks pass, the skin discoloration changes to dark-green. Fingerprint identification starts to become difficult. Maggots and rodents may play a significant role in the destructive process. Body fat may liquefy

6. Adipocere: Under certain conditions, especially anaerobic circumstances, the body fat can be hydrolyzed by bacteria to a greasy waxy substance called ‘adipocere’ or ‘corpse or grave wax’. The process requires several months and tend to occur when the body is buried or left submerged in water

7. Mummification: Drying of a body after death can result in mummification of all or part of it. This process can occur in both hot and cold climates. As it dries out, the skin turns hard and leathery. The limbs may alter position as the muscles and tendons shrink.

8. Skeletonization: The process of decomposition whereby the soft tissues of a body gradually disappear after death to leave a skeleton takes place at various rates., depending upon the conditions. In warm conditions, skeletonization can occur within months, although in temperate climates the process usually takes about 2 years.

9. As far as I know, even after skeletal remains of the dead for another 10,000 or another 100,0000 years or more will still rise up.

“For the Lord himself, with a cry of command, with the archangel's call and with the sound of God's trumpet, will descend from heaven, and the dead in Christ will rise first" (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17). 

Having explained the above how on death all its chemistries irreversibly break down, the ability of Jesus not just command the molecules of death to move and reassemble into Lazarus body, but life perfused into his dead body clearly demonstrated His divine supernatural powers over death

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live (John 11: 25) 

As for the moment our only hope to cheat death is, never, never allow our souls to leave our physical body, Covid or no Covid, with or without face masks on, vaccines or no vaccines, because for the moment only our souls are in full command whether or not to allow our chemistries of life to continue to proceed till Jesus comes again to take over.

Do you want me to explain more, miracles beyond science.
