John 20

Gospel of John
Gospel of JohnSteve Gregg

In this discussion, Steve Gregg examines the events surrounding the resurrection of Jesus as recorded in the four Gospels, particularly in John 20. He explores the possibility of tampering with the tomb and the significance of the appearances of Jesus both in Jerusalem and in Galilee. Gregg notes that while Mary Magdalene was the first witness to the resurrection, it was John, the disciple whom Jesus loved, who believed without seeing. He concludes that Christians are expected to believe without seeing, but doubts and confusion can still arise.
