Worship: risking yourself totally

"The eleven disciples were on their way to Galilee, headed for the mountain Jesus had set for their reunion. The moment they saw him they worshiped him. Some, though, held back, not sure about worship, about risking themselves totally."

Are you kidding?

Jesus is risen from the dead and some still doubted that he was the Son of God?!?

The thing that jumped out for me today was this rumor that the disciples stole the body and fabricated the whole story.

If you were one of the eleven and you took the body, do you think you would go so far as to be martyred for your faith like every one of them did (with the exception of John, who they couldn't seem to kill)?

Jesus is worthy to be praised, because he did die so that every last sinner on the planet could be saved.

Merry Christmas!

On to Exodus...
