Another very compelling element.

The very idea of a ‘resurrection’ is patently un-Jewish. The disciples would have little reason to propagate such an outlandish claim if it were not true. If anything, it would have served to alienate potential Jewish converts.

And when Jesus arose - He only went to those who believed in Him. Of course, doubting Thomas needed a little show and tell first to receive the GOOD NEWS.

Unlike me - I'd be in the face of those who killed me and say 'and that's your best shot? I'm here to tell you, it didn't work and leave them trembling'.

I have alot work to be more like Jesus - on my way but haven't arrived!
