Bible Question: Who do you believe about Jesus--those who were closest to Him, or those who are two thousand years removed from the events? |
Bible Answer: Not sure how this question arose or whether it was related to another discussion but I'll answer it anyway. We have to go with the eyewitnesses. They were not following cunningly devised fables, when they made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty. That which was from the beginning, which they heard, which they saw with their eyes, which they looked upon, and their hands had handled, of the Word of life; (For the life was manifested, and they saw it, and bear witness, and have shown unto us that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto them;) That which they saw and heard they have declared unto us, that we also may have fellowship with them: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. And these things they have written unto us, that our joy may be full. We believe them. We believe in him whom having not seen, we love; in whom, though now we see him not, yet believing, we rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory. |
