Christ as God: A Study in John

DAY 20 OF 21

What does it say?

Jesus rose from the grave and appeared to Mary Magdalene and the disciples, except for Thomas.

What does it mean?

The resurrection of Jesus is the greatest event in history. By it, Jesus defeated the power of death for all time. The risen Christ didn’t appear to unbelievers; He purposely came to His followers. To Mary, He gave renewed hope and sent her as a missionary to the disciples. To the 10 disciples hiding in fear, Jesus gave renewed courage and a new mission. When Thomas doubted the truth of the resurrection, Jesus appeared especially to renew his faith. The resurrection proves that Jesus is the Christ.

How should I respond?

Who first told you the good news of Jesus’ death and resurrection? Knowing about the risen Lord Jesus carries a responsibility to go and tell. Faith requires action. But like the people in today’s passage, we all have stuff to overcome. Life is messy and can leave you discouraged, fearful, and full of doubt. God’s Word will renew your hope, courage, and faith so you, too, can go and tell. To whom is God sending you to tell the story of Jesus and what He’s done in your life? Today, how will your life reflect Thomas’ realization, “My Lord and my God!”?

About this Plan

Christ as God: A Study in John

John’s Gospel is a theologically intimate telling of the life and ministry of Jesus. John shows that Jesus is the preexistent Word who took on flesh to dwell among us. He is God's Son whose miraculous signs show evidence of His divinity. He is the Great “I Am” who has come to bring eternal life to all who believe.
