The Significance of the Post Resurrection Appearances of Jesus Christ by John M. Calhoun DD Pdf
The Necessary of the Resurrection (What Must Be) The Resurrection shows the evidence of the truth of his own words which he had foretold so plainly that his truthfulness was earnestly at stake, unless he rose. For all through his life, Christ was petitioning to God; and as Paul said afterward, "It would have proved God to be deceitful and truthless if Christ has not been raised." It was foretold to the truth of the Old Testament Scriptures.
The Post-Resurrection Appearances of Christ by Cordell W Mitchell Pdf
To walk through the forty day time span in the Scriptures which covers most of "The Post-Resurrection Appearances of Christ" is to walk with one foot in this world and the other foot in the world to come. The body that Jesus is now in is the resurrected body in the flesh that every believer is encouraged to see as the image of their own bodily resurrection. (1John 3:2) Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. As you walk through these forty days after His resurrection, you should view them from the standpoint of Jesus opening the understanding of the individual believer in Christ to insights of things that belong to them, with the expectation that we can presently see a portion of our inheritance.
The Post-Resurrection Appearance Stories of the Gospel Tradition by John E. Alsup Pdf
'The Post-Resurrection Appearance Stories of the Gospel Tradition' Although there are innumerable studies of the Easter event, the spectrum of New Testament research demonstrates an astonishing vacuum regarding a history-of-tradition analysis of the Easter appearance stories, especially in the application of the form-critical method. This study begins with a methodological review of the more recent literature and challenges the widely accepted view that the appearance stories are to be excluded from consideration of the origins of Easter faith. Because of the far-reaching confusion over the place of these stories within the complex of the resurrection traditions, Part Two scans the distinctions and relationships between them. In Part Three the author concentrates upon the appearance stories themselves and raises the following questions: Are pre-redactional forms discernible? If so, do such demonstrate by comparison similarities of form and content? Does a NT 'Gattung' stand behind them? And, finally, Part Four probes the matter of analogies in the world of primitive Christianity, while Part Five summarizes and asks provisionally if observations of a formal nature invite suggestive possibilities for further work on the question of historical experience behind the stories. An attempt at critical review of such questions is long overdue.
The Appearances of the Risen Christ by Arthur X. Deegan ll, PhD Pdf
The author discusses in detail each of the recorded appearances of Jesus to his followers after his Resurrection, based on the text of the New Testament. He also argues for a special appearance to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus. The intent is to help see, in these passages, what the reader never saw before. Each appearance is followed by a conversation with Jesus in the belief that there is no better way to develop a deeper personal relationship with anyone than by intense one-on-one personal conversations.
Jesus' Post-Resurrection Body by Paul Grafton-Holt Pdf
One of the more intriguing questions the New Testament posits is: 'If Jesus had the same physical body after His resurrection, why did Mary and His disciples not recognise Him on some of the specific occasions they met up?' The simple answer is that: 'He appeared to them in a form different from that in which they had previously recognized Him as Jesus' (Grassmick, 1983, Luke 24:13-35). However, is there more to this rather simplistic view than Grassmick suggests?That the disciples should have been eagerly anticipating Jesus' resurrection from the grave is beyond dispute. He had mentioned this to them continually, yet they failed to grasp the significance of what He said. So it should not have come as any surprise to diligent apostles and followers alike, yet it took them all by complete surprise. This is equally true of the Pharisees. They should have been awaiting His arrival too, as the prophets had all predicted the event, down to the last detail (Isa 52:13-15). Instead, they railed against Him because He disturbed the status-quo, a relationship with Rome, which they benefited from and were keen to see its continuance, even if they were under foreign domination and rule at the time. Both parties failed to recognise their Lord and Saviour because they were not looking for the signs of His return. Yet, of the two, one would have expected the disciples, who had walked with Him for 3-years, to be the first to recognize Him after a mere 3-days of absence. That they did not is the mystery this book seeks to examine.Amongst the many post-resurrection appearances, during the forty-days Jesus spent with His disciples, before the ascension, there are four occasions when those closest to Him did not immediately recognise Him (or refused to do so until proof was proffered). These are: (1) in John 20:11-18 where Mary Magdalene does not know it is Him until He calls out her name; (2) in Luke 24:13-32 when on the road to Emmaus, the disciples did not appreciate it was Him until He revealed Himself later during their meal; (3) in John 21:1-25 when the eleven disciples, who went fishing after His death, were unable to distinguish that it was Jesus as He stood on the shore and spoke to them, or even later on as they ate together; and John 20:26-29 when He met Thomas and showed him His nail marked hands (when it should have sufficed to simply appear in the room, but did not for some reason).
The Doubt of the Apostles and the Resurrection Faith of the Early Church by J. D. Atkins Pdf
"Why do the Gospels depict the risen Jesus as touchable and able to eat? J. D. Atkins challenges the common view that Luke 24 and John 20 are apologetic responses to docetism by re-examining the redaction of the appearance stories in light of their reception among early docetists and church fathers."--Page 4 of cover.
Maclaren presents the biblical evidence of Christ's bodily resurrection and ministry. A masterful blending of scholarship and devotion. --Cyril J. Barber
This book is designed to pinpoint when the resurrection will happen. There have been many teachings on the rapture of the church but very few on the resurrection. If one wants to know for sure when the rapture of the church is going to take place, he must first find out when the resurrection will take place.
"In this study, Max Whitaker investigates the intriguing accounts of Jesus' resurrection appearances, especially the hidden nature of Jesus, through the lens of Greco-Roman narratives. This throws new light on how Jesus' post resurrection stories would have been understood by their original audiences."-- Back cover.
This is an in depth examination of the four gospel accounts of the resurrection of Christ. The author thoughtfully compares and contrasts the narratives, and explains the many apparent discrepancies in a measured and insightful way, using plausibility and common sense. He finishes by providing a full, verse by verse chronology of the events contained in the four gospels; building a single resurrection narrative, including the Lords post-resurrection appearances, that he believes is unique, and prayerfully hopes will be edifying to fellow Christians.
Biblical Inspiration and the Authority of Scripture by Carlos R. Bovell Pdf
It has been some time since Catholic and liberal Protestant theologians stopped writing seriously on bibliology. Meanwhile, conservative evangelical theologians guard against the introduction of new ideas. In an effort to make headway through this gridlock, Carlos Bovell has commissioned a roundtable discussion on the prospect of whether the inspiration of Scripture might extend beyond authors and texts, and if so, what this might entail for the authority of Scripture. Taken together, the essays in this volume make an invaluable contribution to contemporary literature on the inspiration and authority of the Bible.

According to 1 Cor 15.44 and 1 Cor 15.52, the human body “is sown an animal body, [but] it will rise a spiritual body” and “the dead will rise again incorruptible, and we will be changed.” These passages prompted many questions: What is a spiritual body? How can a body become incorruptible? Where will the resurrected body be located? And, what will be the nature of its experience? Medieval theologians sought to answer such questions but encountered troubling paradoxes stemming from the conviction that the resurrected body will be an “impassible body” or constituted from “incorruptible matter.” By the thirteenth century the resurrection demanded increased attention from Church authorities, not only in response to certain popular heresies but also to calm heated debates at the University of Paris. William of Auvergne, Bishop of Paris, officially condemned ten errors in 1241 and in 1244, including the proposition that the blessed in the resurrected body will not see the divine essence. In 1270 Parisian Bishop Étienne Tempier condemned the view that God cannot grant incorruption to a corruptible body, and in 1277 he rejected propositions that a resurrected body does not return as numerically one and the same, and that God cannot grant perpetual existence to a mutable, corruptible body. The Dominican scholar Albert the Great was drawn into the university debates in Paris in the 1240s and responded in the text translated here for the first time. In it, Albert considers the properties of resurrected bodies in relation to Aristotelian physics, treats the condition of souls and bodies in heaven, discusses the location and punishments of hell, purgatory, and limbo, and proposes a “limbo of infants” for unbaptized children. Albert’s On Resurrection not only shaped the understanding of Thomas Aquinas but also that of many other major thinkers.
