Darkest before the Light

Tons of people don't believe in the resurrection of Christ or have doubts about it.

But the change in the disciples lives following the resurrection proves that the resurrection is real.

At Jesus death, the disciples and followers of Christ were scattered, disillusioned and fearing for their lives. They had nearly all left his side. I personally think they were like, ok, maybe he isn't the Messiah, seeing that the Romans have just killed him in the most shameful way possible alongside two other common criminals.

But the Bible says Jesus returned, appearing to the disciples several times after his resurrection, proving he was alive.

ONLY AFTER seeing the resurrected Christ - they became fearless and risked everything to spread the Good News around the world. 

They went through imprisonment, beatings, rejection and martyrdom, yet they NEVER compromised their mission. NOT ONE OF THEM.

These men risked, and gave their lives to spread the truth.

Their great enthusiasm, drive and fervor was a result of seeing the Absolute Truth of Christ.

Before they had seen his resurrection they had deserted him and were running the other way.
