He was seen by Peter and then by the Twelve.After that, he was seen by more than 500 of his followers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have died.Then he was seen by James and later by all the apostles.

Eight days later the disciples were together again, and this time Thomas was with them. The doors were locked; but suddenly, as before, Jesus was standing among them.“ Peace be with you,” he said.

And over a period of many days he appeared to those who had gone with him from Galilee to Jerusalem. They are now his witnesses to the people of Israel.

And as they went, Jesus met them and greeted them. And they ran to him, grasped his feet, and worshiped him.

For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

This was the third time Jesus had appeared to his disciples since he had been raised from the dead.

boldly proclaiming the Kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ. And no one tried to stop him.

Later, Jesus appeared again to the disciples beside the Sea of Galilee. This is how it happened.

She went to the disciples, who were grieving and weeping, and told them what had happened.But when she told them that Jesus was alive and she had seen him, they didn’t believe her.Afterward he appeared in a different form to two of his followers who were walking from Jerusalem into the country.They rushed back to tell the others, but no one believed them.Still later he appeared to the eleven disciples as they were eating together. He rebuked them for their stubborn unbelief because they refused to believe those who had seen him after he had been raised from the dead.

One day the Pharisees asked Jesus,“ When will the Kingdom of God come?” Jesus replied,“ The Kingdom of God can’t be detected by visible signs.You won’t be able to say,‘ Here it is!’ or‘ It’s over there!’ For the Kingdom of God is already among you.”

Early on Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance.She ran and found Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. She said,“ They have taken the Lord’s body out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!”Peter and the other disciple started out for the tomb.They were both running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.He stooped and looked in and saw the linen wrappings lying there, but he didn’t go in.Then Simon Peter arrived and went inside. He also noticed the linen wrappings lying there,while the cloth that had covered Jesus’ head was folded up and lying apart from the other wrappings.Then the disciple who had reached the tomb first also went in, and he saw and believed—for until then they still hadn’t understood the Scriptures that said Jesus must rise from the dead.Then they went home.Mary was standing outside the tomb crying, and as she wept, she stooped and looked in.She saw two white robed angels, one sitting at the head and the other at the foot of the place where the body of Jesus had been lying.“ Dear woman, why are you crying?” the angels asked her.“ Because they have taken away my Lord,” she replied,“ and I don’t know where they have put him.”She turned to leave and saw someone standing there. It was Jesus, but she didn’t recognize him.“ Dear woman, why are you crying?” Jesus asked her.“ Who are you looking for?” She thought he was the gardener.“ Sir,” she said,“ if you have taken him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will go and get him.”“ Mary!” Jesus said. She turned to him and cried out,“ Rabboni!”( which is Hebrew for“ Teacher”).“ Don’t cling to me,” Jesus said,“ for I haven’t yet ascended to the Father. But go find my brothers and tell them,‘ I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”Mary Magdalene found the disciples and told them,“ I have seen the Lord!” Then she gave them his message.That Sunday evening the disciples were meeting behind locked doors because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders. Suddenly, Jesus was standing there among them!“ Peace be with you,” he said.As he spoke, he showed them the wounds in his hands and his side. They were filled with joy when they saw the Lord!Again he said,“ Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.”

“ Then, as before, I threw myself down before the Lord for forty days and nights. I ate no bread and drank no water because of the great sin you had committed by doing what the Lord hated, provoking him to anger.

So he got up and ate and drank, and the food gave him enough strength to travel forty days and forty nights to Mount Sinai, the mountain of God.

I tell you, the Kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a nation that will produce the proper fruit.

Then the eleven disciples left for Galilee, going to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.When they saw him, they worshiped him— but some of them doubted!

This happened when I was on the mountain receiving the tablets of stone inscribed with the words of the covenant that the Lord had made with you. I was there for forty days and forty nights, and all that time I ate no food and drank no water.

But very early on Sunday morning the women went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared.They found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance.So they went in, but they didn’t find the body of the Lord Jesus.As they stood there puzzled, two men suddenly appeared to them, clothed in dazzling robes.The women were terrified and bowed with their faces to the ground. Then the men asked,“ Why are you looking among the dead for someone who is alive?He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead! Remember what he told you back in Galilee,that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men and be crucified, and that he would rise again on the third day.”Then they remembered that he had said this.So they rushed back from the tomb to tell his eleven disciples— and everyone else— what had happened.It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and several other women who told the apostles what had happened.But the story sounded like nonsense to the men, so they didn’t believe it.However, Peter jumped up and ran to the tomb to look. Stooping, he peered in and saw the empty linen wrappings; then he went home again, wondering what had happened.That same day two of Jesus’ followers were walking to the village of Emmaus, seven miles from Jerusalem.As they walked along they were talking about everything that had happened.As they talked and discussed these things, Jesus himself suddenly came and began walking with them.But God kept them from recognizing him.He asked them,“ What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?” They stopped short, sadness written across their faces.Then one of them, Cleopas, replied,“ You must be the only person in Jerusalem who hasn’t heard about all the things that have happened there the last few days.”“ What things?” Jesus asked.“ The things that happened to Jesus, the man from Nazareth,” they said.“ He was a prophet who did powerful miracles, and he was a mighty teacher in the eyes of God and all the people.But our leading priests and other religious leaders handed him over to be condemned to death, and they crucified him.We had hoped he was the Messiah who had come to rescue Israel. This all happened three days ago.“ Then some women from our group of his followers were at his tomb early this morning, and they came back with an amazing report.They said his body was missing, and they had seen angels who told them Jesus is alive!Some of our men ran out to see, and sure enough, his body was gone, just as the women had said.”Then Jesus said to them,“ You foolish people! You find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the Scriptures.Wasn’t it clearly predicted that the Messiah would have to suffer all these things before entering his glory?”Then Jesus took them through the writings of Moses and all the prophets, explaining from all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.By this time they were nearing Emmaus and the end of their journey. Jesus acted as if he were going on,but they begged him,“ Stay the night with us, since it is getting late.” So he went home with them.As they sat down to eat, he took the bread and blessed it. Then he broke it and gave it to them.Suddenly, their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And at that moment he disappeared!They said to each other,“ Didn’t our hearts burn within us as he talked with us on the road and explained the Scriptures to us?”And within the hour they were on their way back to Jerusalem. There they found the eleven disciples and the others who had gathered with them,who said,“ The Lord has really risen! He appeared to Peter.”Then the two from Emmaus told their story of how Jesus had appeared to them as they were walking along the road, and how they had recognized him as he was breaking the bread.And just as they were telling about it, Jesus himself was suddenly standing there among them.“ Peace be with you,” he said.But the whole group was startled and frightened, thinking they were seeing a ghost!“ Why are you frightened?” he asked.“ Why are your hearts filled with doubt?Look at my hands. Look at my feet. You can see that it’s really me. Touch me and make sure that I am not a ghost, because ghosts don’t have bodies, as you see that I do.”As he spoke, he showed them his hands and his feet.Still they stood there in disbelief, filled with joy and wonder. Then he asked them,“ Do you have anything here to eat?”They gave him a piece of broiled fish,and he ate it as they watched.Then he said,“ When I was with you before, I told you that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and in the Psalms must be fulfilled.”Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.And he said,“ Yes, it was written long ago that the Messiah would suffer and die and rise from the dead on the third day.It was also written that this message would be proclaimed in the authority of his name to all the nations, beginning in Jerusalem:‘ There is forgiveness of sins for all who repent.’You are witnesses of all these things.“ And now I will send the Holy Spirit, just as my Father promised. But stay here in the city until the Holy Spirit comes and fills you with power from heaven.”Then Jesus led them to Bethany, and lifting his hands to heaven, he blessed them.While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up to heaven.So they worshiped him and then returned to Jerusalem filled with great joy.And they spent all of their time in the Temple, praising God.

For forty days and forty nights he fasted and became very hungry.

“ During the reigns of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed or conquered. It will crush all these kingdoms into nothingness, and it will stand forever.That is the meaning of the rock cut from the mountain, though not by human hands, that crushed to pieces the statue of iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold. The great God was showing the king what will happen in the future. The dream is true, and its meaning is certain.”

“ Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near.”

We pleaded with you, encouraged you, and urged you to live your lives in a way that God would consider worthy. For he called you to share in his Kingdom and glory.

For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son,
