When Jesus appears in resurrected body before the disciples, they are sure they are seeing a ghost. Jesus response? (1) Peace be with you, (2) Do you have some fish I can eat (so we share fellowship and you know I am not a ghost) & (3) Jesus takes time to lay out how all their sacred texts point to One who would suffer, die and rise again in glory. All of this came to pass as it was told all along. Scripture points to and was fulfilled in Jesus being "The Real Thing". For Christians, the scriptures really come to life when read in the light of Christ's life, death and resurrection. May we go forth and witness to The Real Thing.
