Wednesday: Witnesses of the Risen Christ
Read John 20:11-29 and 1 Corinthians 15:5-8. How did the disciples react when they first met the risen Christ?
The two angels at the empty tomb told Mary Magdalene and some other women that Jesus had risen (Matthew 28:1, Matthew 28:5-7; Mark 16:1-7; Luke 24:1-11). But soon Jesus Himself appeared to them, and they worshiped Him (Matthew 28:1, Matthew 28:9-10; John 20:14-18).

He appeared also to Peter (Luke 24:34, 1 Corinthians 15:5) and to the two disciples on their way to Emmaus, whose hearts were burning while He was speaking to them (Mark 16:12, Luke 24:13-35). When Jesus came into the Upper Room, the disciples were initially terrified and frightened but then filled with joy and marveled at what happened (Luke 24:33-49, John 20:19-23). A week later Jesus came again into the same room without opening the doors, and then even Thomas believed in His resurrection (John 20:24-29).
During the forty days between His resurrection and His ascension, Jesus “was seen by over five hundred brethren at once” (1 Corinthians 15:6, NKJV) and by James (1 Corinthians 15:7). Jesus joined some disciples at the shore of the Sea of Galilee and had breakfast with them, followed by a talk with Peter (John 21:1-23). There might have been other appearances of Jesus (Acts 1:3) before His final one at His ascension (Luke 24:50-53, Acts 1:1-11). Paul considered himself also an eyewitness to the risen Christ, who appeared to him on the road to Damascus (1 Corinthians 15:8; compare with Acts 9:1-9).
When the other disciples first told the absent Thomas that they had seen the risen Lord, he reacted, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe” (John 20:25, NKJV). A week later, when Jesus reappeared to the disciples, now with Thomas among them, Jesus said to him, “Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing” (John 20:27, NKJV).
Then Thomas confessed, “My Lord and my God!”
And Jesus added, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed” (John 20:29, NKJV).
| “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” Even if you have not seen for yourself the resurrected Christ, what other reasons do you have for your faith in Jesus? |
Amen!

Mujer, iglesia y poder: Una cuestión ética
Hay dos formas de enfocar el tema de los valores, como algo relativo a un grupo o circunstancia, o como una realidad basada en principios universales. Lo primero es tradicional y motivo de relativismo, propio de las culturas, y los tiempos. Lo segundo es válido en todo tiempo y lugar, porque está sujeto a valores […] Source: https://atoday.org/mujer-iglesia-y-poder-una-cuestion-etica/
