Bible accounts
There are many witnesses of the resurrected Jesus Christ found in the Bible:
- The first witness was Mary Magdalene, a faithful woman who saw the Saviour soon after He arose from His tomb. She ran to tell His disciples in Jerusalem (John 20:11–18).
- On the road to Emmaus, Christ walked and talked with two more of His disciples. He later visited with them in their home. (Luke 24:13–35).
- That evening, He showed himself to a group of His Apostles. The Apostle Thomas, who was not there, would not believe Christ was truly alive until, a week later, he felt for himself the wounds in Christ’s body (John 20:19–29).
- The Apostle Paul states that the resurrected Christ later appeared to “five hundred brethren at once” and, subsequently, to Paul himself (1 Corinthians 15:6–8).
