For Easter Sunday, Rev. Jeremiah Johnston, Ph.D., reflects on the Road to Emmaus and the hope offered by the physical resurrection of Jesus Christ after his death on the cross.
'They said to one another, ‘Were not our hearts burning within us while He was speaking to us on the road, while He was explaining the Scriptures to us?’' . This passage, from Luke's Gospel, is part of the 'Road to Emmaus' appearance of Jesus Christ following His resurrection from the dead. In the Road to Emmaus story, the resurrected Christ walks with Cleopas and an unnamed companion — and they don't initially recognize Jesus.
Nearly every writing in the New Testament proclaims the resurrection of Jesus,' Rev. Jeremiah J. Johnston, PhD, told Fox News Digital. Johnston is pastor of apologetics at Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, Texas, and author of 'Body of Proof: The & Best Reasons to Believe in the Resurrection of Jesus – and Why It Matters Today.' 'The four Gospels describe the discovery of the empty tomb.
Without the resurrection, there would be no good news, and the New Testament would not even make sense, but Jesus has risen from the dead. And we have unending hope.' For more Lifestyle articles, visit www.foxnews.com/lifestyle.
