Liam-The crowd kept saying; "The girl is Dead" ...........Jesus kept saying NO SHE IS SLEEPING.Who lied, The crowd or Jesus?...........The Crowd lied.
Good, if you accept the words of Jesus as truth then you will also find his statement here just as true-
31 But about the resurrection of the dead—have you not read what God said to you,
32 ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’ ? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.
It appears that neither Abraham, Isaac nor Jacob died either.
