Wow! You mean to tell me that the stories in the Bible are actually REAL?!? The voice belonged to a little seven year old girl in my year 2 Scripture class. My immediate answer: "Yes". The amazement on her little face just said it all.... She was confronted by the reality of a REAl God who spoke to real people in history and is still speaking through His Word!
How awesome is our great God! He chose to reveal Himself through the spoken and now written words of the prophets in the Old Testament so long ago, but more so, He has revealed Himself through His Son, Jesus Christ! (Hebrews 1:1f)
Every year, millions of Australians celebrate Easter, yet only one girl in our year 2 class knew what the first Easter was really about: "Jesus died on the cross and he rose again from the dead.". Well.... you should have seen the looks on the other kids' faces! Bewildered!! How can anyone rise from the dead?!?
Jesus rose from the dead, and we can know this because he appeared to many people, and this is recorded for us to read in the Gospels.
We also know that after he had provided purification for sins, Jesus sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in Heaven (Hebrews 1:3). Imagine their faces now!
