br.writeln("<DT style=\"margin-left:0in;text-indent:.2in\">It was undoubtedly a <I>real</I> body. Hundreds of people could not have been so mistaken, especially when Jesus offered clear evidence of it. But it was not an earthbound body. It was something that bore a developmental relationship to an earthly human body, but it was not identical with it. There was clearly a continuity of life between the body of Jesus and the body of the resurrected Jesus, but in the time between his death and resurrection it had undergone a very fundamental change. That, at least, seems clear.<DT style=\"margin-left:0in;text-indent:.2in\">So much for the list of dissimilarities: the body of Jesus after the resurrection had a different appearance and also a different form. It was like the previous body, it had some sort of developmental relationship to it, but it was obviously not identical with it.<DT style=\"margin-left:0in;text-indent:.2in\">Now we must consider the similarities. Strangely, they all came down to one factor, but that factor is so important that it outweighs all the dissimilarities. It is simply this: Jesus before and after the resurrection was undeniably <I>the same person</I>. No matter what extraordinary changes had taken place in his bodily form, all who knew him well had no doubt at all who he was. They &ldquo;knew&rdquo; it was the Lord.");
