Maybe Stunning evidence of Jesus' Resurrection for the Unbelieving..


Apr 17, 2022, 4:57 PM

or skeptic alike.

Not 1 of his 12 disciples forsake HIM when they were being murdered, or killed or burned..when they had a possible chance to save their own life!

This in itself is amazing since 11 of the 12 died horrendous deaths as well..including many being crucified themselves, or hung, or stabbed or burned at the stake..with only one living to a "natural" death.

In fact, all of them "testified" at their impending death that Jesus had died & arisen from that Tomb of Sin to save us and was the Savior..

and more amazing is how this story of ultimate sacrifice by ONE for so many sinners still remains #1 in a secular & high-tech world that thinks it has the answers.

Records found in journals & sealed parchment scrolls plus handed-down oral history attest to this miraculous event and man.. from various sources including those from the Roman Governor Pilate to Caesar himself who both hired spies to send back verbal & written accounts of Jesus's doings..as did the prominent church Jews..

plus a few records, writings & lore remained from the historians living in those outer regions or provinces that the disciples traveled to and lived or died at years later.

Also, realize there had been about 300 preachers like Jesus during his day, his cousin John The Baptist being the most prominent and he may have had a few hundred followers at very best, and the fact that Jesus eventually had possibly thousands come to see him again and again was very significant in those difficult times..

with most citizens being in poverty or poor enough to need to work sunup to sundown to just survive..but they came. Why since most could not even get close enough to even hear his voice.

The why reason is: HIS miracles of healing the sick & other unnatural deeds performed caused a storm of followers thru word of mouth and thus HIS fame grew so much that the Romans and Jews in power had to get rid of HIM, and they did.

And, Amazing in itself was the broad outreach & profound preachings that these 12 Souls made for this godly man named Jesus! What loyalty & personal sacrifice!

Saying, after the initial shock of HIS death they quickly believed in what HE had said before HIS death and what would happen afterwards..and when they saw the empty tomb with his garments being bloodless, neatly folded and that the tomb guards were frightened of what they'd seen..

plus their learning that GOD's two Angels had greeted Mary and had told her that HE Jesus had risen and go tell the others that HE had gone to be with HIS Heavenly Father..then they became believers for life.

These 12 Disciples are buried all over the ancient world..mostly at small churches in towns & villages..from England to The Vatican in Rome.

Lastly, you have Faith in other things you've never seen..like air, electricity or a virus..but you accepted that they are fact from some human source without visually seeing, so You believed on their word.

Jesus said to all: I am the Word which shall be food for & life to you. Believe in ME and You shall have abundance and have a seat with ME in my Father's Kingdom.

Absolutely, it's the feelings that I get in my heart, and the welling of tears that come to my eyes by just reading the words of Jesus, My lord and savior. Jesus said to all: I am the Word which shall be food & life to you. Believe in ME and You shall have abundance and have a seat with ME in my Father's Kingdom. Amen to the words of Jesus, our Lord, our God!!!

Amen Bill! And the one difference that Separates Christianity is we have a Living Savior in Jesus Christ. All others see Jesus as just a great prophet instead of God’s only Son who died on the Cross and arose to life 3 days later.

One of the cooler things is that when they opened his tomb, they found his garments folded and neatly placed. In old Jewish tradition if you were at a party
Of some kind you would leave your napkin crumpled
Up as a sign that you were done and not coming back, but if you were just stepping away and returning, you folded your napkin and the servants would know not to clean up your seat.

Jesus left the message he is returning.

I never knew this. Thanks for sharing. I didn’t grow up in church but I made a vow to get closer to Jesus in 2022. Reading my way through the Bible and hope to learn more about our Heavenly Father.

The cool thing about the Bible is that you can keep going deeper and deeper into it, learning more each time.

I love this my man, same thing for me in 2018. A great “starter” thing I did, that really spoke to me and helped me establish that relationship was a daily devotional book by Tony Dungey, “Uncommon”. I still read it every day, I highly recommend it, it does a good job relating sports on some days which made it easier for me to consume and really relate to.

I know you would love to do that, but I believe that when Jesus comes back, you will do what all believers will do, we will fall to our knees crying out to Jesus of how happy we are that he has returned to lift our spirits up into the Kingdom of Heaven for eternity. No matter where we are when Jesus returns, he want leave before he has gathered all of his flock, and he will lead us to eternal life free of pain where all is good for eternity...

Hallelujah. What a wonderful explanation. Danny Ford always said you have to hang your hat on something when you go play football. He usually had about 5 plays in his offense that he could execute well. As far as me and my family, we are hanging our hat on the Lord Jesus Christ for our atonement of our sinful lives. The blood of Jesus covers us so that God can now reconnect with us and His spirit snd our spirit are one. I pray if any read these words and have never accepted Jesus as your atonement that you will pray a prayer of forgiveness and hang your hat on Jesus His death and resurrection.

James his “brother” was actually his cousin. You’ll see him also referred to as James the son of Mary, wife of Cleopas. That Mary was likely a cousin of Jesus’ mother Mary. Jesus had no brothers or sisters.
The Jews had no word for cousin, so cousins and uncles were referred to as “brothers” in the Bible. Even Abraham and Lott called each other brother when they were actually uncle and nephew.

Great post I never new that. It’s interesting when other Christian’s share information like your post or share life experiences. So James was the Cousin of Jesus Christ.

If God granted me one earthly wish I would want to back and hang out with Jesus Christ and his disciples. That would be an amazing day until I am finally in the presence of God.

Prayers to everyone that God will Bless your week. ??????

Your right and I know so because of the feelings in my heart of hearts and from how I become overcome with tears when I read his words and think of the love for me to get on that cross to take on my sins. I’m grateful for all my blessings and in the knowledge he has always been their when I needed him and when I didn’t.
