May 9, 2017 – Jesus is God

Faith is what the evidence, and facts point to.

Grace not only forgives but brings one into the family

This is reality.

Invites skeptic, atheist to consider facts.

Hear what Christians believe, Believers use this to take over the world in love and grace.

Share Truth and encourage.

I believe Jesus Christ and His Word,

The Very God indwells me by His Spirit.

Seek the Lord while He made be found. He has left a clear trail. He is seeking you.

I Corinthians 15: “Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, was buried, was raised – the third day to new life and appeared”

Christ is the Anointed One, Messiah, Lord, 2nd person of Trinity

He tasted all of life except sin. He died for our sin. Buried in a public tomb.

After his resurrection, He appeared to many. 

There were eye witnesses of the resurrected Christ.

Women first witnessed empty tomb and Jesus.

Women’s words (like the shepherds) weren’t highly regarded.

The writers, esp. Luke, don’t shy away from truth of women being first witnesses. 

The men were scared: principle of embarrassment. 

Paul’s’ credo in I Corinthians 15 is not a complete list, but credal, meant to be shared.

The 500 witnesses at one appearance were at least 500, most still alive and able to be questioned by the Corinthians.

Information doesn’t go bad because it’s “old”.

I Corinthians is still fresh information, ’50’s AD.

Matthew 28:5+

  • v.7 go to Galilee as He told you
  • v.9-10 Jesus meets them
  • v.16 the eleven (likely others) to outdoor event on the mountain
  • v.17 some doubted – truth test

Matthew 26:31,32 meet you in Galilee

Acts 1:14 Jesus’ brother in upper room praying after Ascension

I Corinthians 9:5 “brothers of the Lord”

Mark 3:21 His (Jesus) family didn’t believe

John 7:3-5 neither did his brothers believe

James, Jesus’s brother, saw the resurrection

James now believes and leads the church, taking on persecution.


Believe the evidence. 

Be saved.
