Luke 24:13-53
Yes, it all happened as Cleopas told
you. When we were on the road and talking to Jesus, we didn't know who He was,
but there was something about the man. It seemed that we should know Him, but
we just couldn't put a finger on who He was. He went through the scriptures,
particularly the prophets, showing us that what had happened had been predicted
long ago. We sure were surprised, however, when we realized that it was Jesus
who had been walking with us and teaching us! Some of the women had said that
they had seen Him, but we put that down to women's fantasies.
But they were right! Jesus is alive!
We had to go back right away to tell the others! And while we were talking,
Jesus appeared again to all of us. He spoke to us, calming us, for the
appearance had frightened us all. Then He showed us the wounds, then ate some
fish. After that, He taught us all more about the scriptures. He led us out on
the road to Bethany, blessed us, then went to heaven from there. We have been
around, praising God ever since then. When the promised power from God comes to
us, we'll go out and spread the word of
God's love for all people. Jesus is
alive! I know, for I have seen Him and heard Him! Praise God, who is great!
