Why Did the Resurrected Jesus Christ Appear to His Disciples Many Times?

By Zheng Fu

I think all of the brothers and sisters in the Lord know that after the Lord Jesus was crucified and then resurrected from death, He appeared to His disciples many times, and that He told the disciples that although He was resurrected as an ethereal body and was able to walk through the wall, His substance has never changed: He was still the Lord who loved them. But have brothers and sisters ever thought about God’s will behind the Lord’s appearing to His disciples many times after His resurrection?

How Can You Make Your Belief in God Be Approved by Him?

By Lin Lin

The Bible records, “But I say to you, That in this place is one greater than the temple. But if you had known what this means, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the guiltless. For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day” (Matthew 12:6-8). When I was a new believer, I read these verses. At that time, I only knew the Lord Jesus was saying this to remind people who lived under the law that He is greater than the temple and that He is Lord of the Sabbath day. Therefore, He could heal patients on that day, and He didn’t condemn His disciples who plucked and ate the ears of corn when they went through the corn fields on the Sabbath. Yesterday I read these verses again. From the fact that He worked on the Sabbath day, I clearly realized the Lord was reminding people who lived under the law that He had done new work outside the temple, and that everyone should depart from the temple to accept His new work.

God’s Grace and Love Accompanys Him Through Death

Li Jun is 48 years old. In the first half of his life he had a bumpy ride. Several times he was on the line, but finally he was safe each time. Could it be that God’s Spirit blessed him to be out of danger? Li Jun was puzzled all the time …

In his childhood, Li Jun once sneaked out to swim in the river. When he swam to the center of the river, suddenly, he felt someone pulling him down hard by gripping his ankles. Li Jun desperately yelled and struggled. Luckily, a few adults found and rescued him. After coming back to the riverbank, Li Jun turned round and looked at the center of the river, his face while and his heart pounding. He thought: If it were not for the uncles’ help, I would never see my parents. At the moment, his eyes filled with tears, and he gratefully looked at those who had saved him.
