Later Jesus appeared to the 11 disciples as they were eating. He spoke firmly to them because they had no faith. They would not believe those who had seen him after he rose from the dead.

until the day he was taken up to heaven. Before Jesus left, he gave orders to the apostles he had chosen. He did this through the Holy Spirit.After his suffering and death, he appeared to them. In many ways he proved that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of 40 days. During that time he spoke about God’s kingdom.One day Jesus was eating with them. He gave them a command.“ Do not leave Jerusalem,” he said.“ Wait for the gift my Father promised. You have heard me talk about it.John baptized with water. But in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”Then the apostles gathered around Jesus and asked him a question.“ Lord,” they said,“ are you going to give the kingdom back to Israel now?”He said to them,“ You should not be concerned about times or dates. The Father has set them by his own authority.But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you. Then you will tell people about me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria. And you will even tell other people about me from one end of the earth to the other.”After Jesus said this, he was taken up to heaven. The apostles watched until a cloud hid him from their sight.While he was going up, they kept on looking at the sky. Suddenly two men dressed in white clothing stood beside them.“ Men of Galilee,” they said,“ why do you stand here looking at the sky? Jesus has been taken away from you into heaven. But he will come back in the same way you saw him go.”The apostles returned to Jerusalem from the hill called the Mount of Olives. It is just over half a mile from the city.When they arrived, they went upstairs to the room where they were staying. Here is a list of those who were there. Peter, John, James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot and Judas son of JamesThey all came together regularly to pray. The women joined them too. So did Jesus’ mother Mary and his brothers.

And he brought Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said,“ You are Simon, son of John. You will be called Cephas.” Cephas means Peter, or Rock.

Here is what I mean. One of you says,“ I follow Paul.” Another says,“ I follow Apollos.” Another says,“ I follow Peter.” And still another says,“ I follow Christ.”

On the evening of that first day of the week, the disciples were together. They had locked the doors because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders. Jesus came in and stood among them. He said,“ May peace be with you!”Then he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples were very happy when they saw the Lord.Again Jesus said,“ May peace be with you! The Father has sent me. So now I am sending you.”He then breathed on them. He said,“ Receive the Holy Spirit.If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven. If you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.”Thomas was one of the 12 disciples. He was also called Didymus. He was not with the other disciples when Jesus came.So they told him,“ We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them,“ First I must see the nail marks in his hands. I must put my finger where the nails were. I must put my hand into his side. Only then will I believe.”A week later, Jesus’ disciples were in the house again. Thomas was with them. Even though the doors were locked, Jesus came in and stood among them. He said,“ May peace be with you!”

Don’t we have the right to take a believing wife with us when we travel? The other apostles do. The Lord’s brothers do. Peter does.

That means Paul or Apollos or Peter or the world or life or death or the present or the future. All are yours.

But he wasn’t seen by all the people. He was seen only by us. We are witnesses whom God had already chosen. We ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

They were saying,“ It’s true! The Lord has risen! He has appeared to Simon!”Then the two of them told what had happened to them on the way. They told how they had recognized Jesus when he broke the bread.The disciples were still talking about this when Jesus himself suddenly stood among them. He said,“ May you have peace!”They were surprised and terrified. They thought they were seeing a ghost.Jesus said to them,“ Why are you troubled? Why do you have doubts in your minds?Look at my hands and my feet. It’s really me! Touch me and see. A ghost does not have a body or bones. But you can see that I do.”After he said that, he showed them his hands and feet.But they still did not believe it. They were amazed and filled with joy. So Jesus asked them,“ Do you have anything here to eat?”They gave him a piece of cooked fish.He took it and ate it in front of them.Jesus said to them,“ This is what I told you while I was still with you. Everything written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms must come true.”Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.He told them,“ This is what is written. The Messiah will suffer. He will rise from the dead on the third day.His followers will preach in his name. They will tell others to turn away from their sins and be forgiven. People from every nation will hear it, beginning at Jerusalem.You have seen these things with your own eyes.I am going to send you what my Father has promised. But for now, stay in the city. Stay there until you have received power from heaven.”
