Jesus Christ Appearance, Postmortal
There are many scriptures that talk of appearances of Jesus Christ after his death and resurrection. In Mark 16:9, it states that “he appeared first to Mary.” He then came numerous times to be with the Twelve Apostles. In Acts 1:3 it states that He was seen of the Apostles for forty days. He must have had many things to teach them. In 1 Corinthians 15:6, it states that he was seen of 500 brethren at once. What a meeting that must have been! Also, in Doctrine and Covenants 93:1 there is another amazing promise: “Verily, thus saith the Lord: It shall come to pass that every soul who forsaketh his sins and cometh unto me, and calleth on my name, and obeyeth my voice, and keepeth my commandments, shall see my face and know that I am;” In the Sermon on the Mount, the Savior made this same promise in Matthew 5:8: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” In Revelations 3:20, the promise is again made: “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”
