Actually Touch Christ!
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who believe that Jesus appeared in the flesh after his crucifixion and resurrection. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Some would like to undermine the Gospel of Christ by suggesting that Jesus appeared to throngs of people after his resurrection as some kind of spirit and not as in flesh and blood. This is specifically refuted when John writes about having touched Jesus physically.
1 John 1:1-2 (ESV) says,
“That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life—the life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us.”
Don’t be misled.
Christ arose physically from the dead. He was touched by others.
This testimony is blessed assurance that Scripture is true. Believe!
