Some people question the accuracy and reliability of the Bible, but Jesus never did! Notice what we find in Luke Chapter 24 after Jesus arose from the dead. He appeared to his disciples and said, “Peace be with you.” They were startled and frightened, thinking he was 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 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 again 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: There is forgiveness of sins for all who repent.” Jesus relied on the reliability of all the Holy Scriptures, and so should we.
