This document discusses examining Jesus' words, deeds, and legacy to understand who he was. It outlines some of Jesus' teachings and miracles. His death and resurrection are said to have defeated mankind's enemy, death, and changed our eternal state. It means forgiveness of sins, salvation, and eternal life for us. We should respond to Jesus' death and resurrection through faith like John, Mary Magdalene, and Thomas, who had immediate, gradual, and eventual faith. It's most important to have faith in Jesus as our Lord and Savior.

Jesus has been called the "Great Physician." We think of His miracles of healing. But those miracles of healing our physical bodies point to a far greater miracle--the healing of our heart and soul. He doesn't just mean physical life and death. He points to something greater--spiritual life and death, both in this world and the next.

What is death? What is life? Why is it true that we cannot truly live until we accept our mortality? How did the resurrection of Jesus Christ forever defeat death? Who is Jesus Christ and how was He able to accomplish what no other person in the history of man accomplished? What will happen to you when you die?
Dear sisters and brothers,
We must ask the gift of faith if we don't have it, if we are always skeptical. We cannot do much if we lack faith in the Risen Lord.
Fr. Cielo
It is by God’s spirit that anybody will come to believe in His Son, Jesus Christ, as Lord and Savior. As it is written,
Zechariah 4:6 So he answered and said to me:
“ This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel:
‘ Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’
Says the LORD of hosts.
However, it is our duty as Christians to proclaim the gospel. Therefore, I am reposting this presentation which I made last year to proclaim the gospel on this Easter Sunday of 2008. Happy Resurrection Sunday!

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

according to the Scriptures, 5 and that he
appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve.

54. John 20
1
Early on the first day of the week, while it was still
dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw
that the stone had been removed from the
entrance. 2 So she came running to Simon Peter
and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and
said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb,
and we don’t know where they have put him!”
55. John 20
3
So Peter and the other disciple started for the
tomb. 4 Both were running, but the other disciple
outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5 He bent
over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there
but did not go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came along
behind him and went straight into the tomb. He
saw the strips of linen lying there, 7 as well as the
cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’ head.
The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from
the linen.
56. John 20
8
Finally the other disciple, who had reached the
tomb first, also went inside. He saw and believed. 9
(They still did not understand from Scripture that
Jesus had to rise from the dead.) 10 Then the
disciples went back to where they were staying. 11
Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she
wept, she bent over to look into the tomb 12 and
saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’
body had been, one at the head and the other at
the foot.
57. John 20
13
They asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?”
“They have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I
don’t know where they have put him.” 14 At this, she
turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but
she did not realize that it was Jesus. 15 He asked
her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who is it you
are looking for?” Thinking he was the gardener,
she said, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell
me where you have put him, and I will get him.”
58. John 20
16
Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned toward him
and cried out in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” (which means
“Teacher”).
18
Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the
news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them
that he had said these things to her.

24
Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of
the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus
came. 25
So the other disciples told him, “We
have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless
I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger
where the nails were, and put my hand into his
side, I will not believe.”
60. John 20
26
A week later his disciples were in the house
again, and Thomas was with them. Though the
doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among
them and said, “Peace be with you!” 27 Then he
said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my
hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my
side. Stop doubting and believe.”
61. John 20
28
Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
29
Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen
me, you have believed; blessed are those who
have not seen and yet have believed.”
