The Real Jesus
I’m a proud Aussie who came to this country when I was four. My big family in Spain existed only in stories and my imagination. That all changed when I finally I visited them, and I can tell you, that there were hugs and tears all round!
You’ve never seen Jesus, so how do you know that he’s real, and not just another figure from history who’s dead and buried? The Bible has lots of little clues, like this one:
After his resurrection, Jesus appeared to his disciples while they were fishing. He performed a miracle that filled their nets with fish. In fact, the record is very precise: 153 fish.
153? Why that number?
Because fishermen love to count fish, don’t they?
It’s a detail you’d never expect would be added by someone making up a story.
These were real fishermen who saw the real, risen Lord.
Jesus is not just a story. He really is the risen Lord!
The real Jesus is not just a story. He really is the risen Lord!
