That actually proves nothing about being alive. Blood doesn’t “gush” (or see a “sudden flow”, as John wrote) unless an artery or something larger is punctured or severed.swariffin, Pilate was not there. But his soldiers were there and only the senior soldier (man in-charge) was well advised by Pilate not to harm Jesus. It was a covert operation. That soldier did not know about the real things. So he being one of the soldiers struck spear into Jesus body. Immediately, water and blood gushed out of the body. That proved Jesus was alive and his heart was working.
May be it is gift from God that some one struck a spear and it is a big proof of living Jesus. I do not know at what stage Jesus became a god. Was he god all the time? Or he became god after crucifixion? After resurrection?
I’d be curious to know how someone could take a spear wound to the side that would sever not just an artery, but probably the inferior vena cava (if not the heart itself) and somehow live. Heck, Steve Irwin died in less than a minute from something very similar to it; it’s believed that removal of a sting ray barb was what did it. A spear wouldn’t be jabbed into someone and left there; it would be withdrawn immediately (and was, as evidence by “bringing forth a sudden flow”).
