They didn’t believe him even with the miracles until the only miracle that mattered; the resurrection. It authenticated who he was and what he said.

Without the resurrection how does Peter gain acceptance after denying Jesus three times. Without the resurrection why would the Apostles who fled come back to preach THE GOSPEL knowing that crucifixion was a possibility for them. It is more likely that without the resurrection the Apostles would have stayed home and gone back to their old lives.

Human action tells the truth.

“It is more likely that without the resurrection the Apostles would have stayed home and gone back to their old lives.”

John 21:1-3, “After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself. There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples. Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.”
