SEEN, HEARD, AND TOUCHED

1 John 1:1-3

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life— the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us— that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.

Encouraging Words

Our Christian belief and faith is not based on some legend or myth. It is not a story that is made up to generate a following. Jesus Christ was a real man, born of a virgin, and grew into a man. He was fully human as witnessed by many and documented in history. Based on the works and miracles that He performed, including the resurrection from death, He was clearly the Son of God, fully human and fully God. This too was witnessed by many and documented in the annals of history. Jesus was seen, heard, and touched as evidence that He walked upon this earth and did miraculous things. This is the Lord that I worship and choose to submit my life to. This is the Lord that I serve. Glory be to God!
