He Appeared: The Relevance of the Risen Christ's Appearance (John 20)

Steve Smith :: Creekside Church :: Easter Sunday, April 9, 2023 Is seeing believing, or is believing seeing? What does the appearance of a risen Christ mean for believers and skeptics today? Following announcements and special music from Creekside’s Generation Jesus youth singers, Pastor Steve preaches an Easter Sunday message from John 20:19-31. The resurrected Jesus appeared to His disciples, including Thomas the doubter, and these interactions accomplish 3 important purposes in the lives of people in every age. Our risen Savior appeared in order to comfort the fearful, commission the faithful, and confront the faithless. And even to the faithless, Jesus offers life and love, calling “Oh sinner, come home.”
