Scripture: John 20:19-30; 21:1-3

Topic: Faith

Notes:

- After resurrection, Jesus visited disciples, then they went home- Jesus sent them out, gave Holy Spirit, told them live in forgiveness- Thomas wrestled with divinity of Jesus- There is nothing that will finalize your faith; just have to trust Jesus- God doesn't operate within the confines of my mind- Faith doesn't come from the head but from the heart- Disciples went fishing-Jesus appeared- Must start over each day, we are dying people born of the spirit- We have spiritual highs; must return to the mundane life by faith- Woman on the phone interrupted by tongues "God talking"...- Until Pentecost the disciples lived in fear; Holy Spirit gives boldness- Lazarus and rich man- A miracle will not make you a stronger follower or save a sinner- Have confidence in the Word of God
