John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
John 20:17Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. 22And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:
23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained. 27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. 28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. 29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
John 21:6 And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes. 14This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.

If we look at who we elect to be kings and how then and how we care for them , we see how much the opposite we are than what happened for the True King. “ It is finished, “ are His last words at the Cross in John. He did all His Father sent Him to do . Then He is seen before He ascended when He could not be touched and then when He could be by Thomas and others . A lot went on we have no record of during that time but how truly amazing what we do have.

He had to help Peter and the others have zero doubt of Who He was and where He was going. We are the generation in “ 29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.”

The Cross was a long time ago and the power of it can be seen every day somewhere in the world. We pray to and say we believe in Jesus that made those fish no where to be found when Peter was fishing without Jesus. Those fish did what Jesus told them to do when Peter knew it was Jesus...That is how Peter's life started with Jesus.

We did not see or touch Jesus as they did, but all Jesus is in control of still exist like those fish. I can imagine there were days when Peter was being persecuted , he drew from those times. Many things happened at the Cross that will happen before He comes again. We have to really know the Word of God to not doubt when the world pulls another direction.

“John 17: 14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”

Jesus is praying to His Father to keep them from evil and keep them in truth. That was what we had to do , to see this precious Savior that they saw , touched and learned to love. There is absolutely nothing , this evil planet offers worth not living eternally with Jesus. We have the instructions , get alone with them...He will help us hate this world for those that have left Him and love this place. At the Cross there was darkness , the earth shook and much weeping, that is going to be repeated, that is love...
“John 21:19This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me. “

The truth was never popular , the truth got into peoples business, the truth interfered with what the world offers. Get away from anything that is not what Jesus taught.

“John 20:23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.”

The teachers , preachers and church can not forgive your sins. The teachers , preachers and church was to show what sin was with the “word of truth. That convicts” No one or entity wanted to face Jesus with having being part of non truth. The church has done a terrible job and is all divided on the true word of God. Individuals have access to the same Holy Spirit of God and the Word of God, get alone with it and Him.
I do not care if your grandfather , grandmother , dad or mother you ,admire and love, taught you something and that is why you believe, get alone with the Word of God and see if it is true. Jesus tells us it is the church most lost in last days. That church , preacher or teacher will be no where around when every knee is bowed to answer what we did with what He gave us...
