WEEKLY REFLECTION
“...And I Will Lay Down My Life For My Sheep.”
04-21-2024 | Fr. Manasseh Iorchir, VCWe know that the most important proof for the Resurrection of Jesus is neither the empty tomb on Easter Sunday nor the testimony of Mary, Peter and John the beloved who “saw and believed.” The most reliable proof for the Resurrection lies in examining the dramatic change in the attitude of the Apostles and disciples after the Resurrection in comparison to their attitude before the Resurrection. It is obvious that the Apostles exhibited attitudinal transformation after they saw Christ. So radical was this change that the same men who were very afraid of the Jewish authorities after Christ was arrested found no problems in confronting the same authorities and placing culpability for the crucifixion of Christ squarely at their feet (Acts 4:10-11), declaring that salvation is exclusively a product of belief in Christ (Acts 4:12) and were readily prepared to joyfully die (Acts 7:59-60). It would have been logically impossible for the Apostles to risk their lives for a lie.
