NOTES for Luk 24:11-12
11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not. |
12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass. |

God calls each of us to act exactly this way. Go and see for yourself. It looks to you like foolishness and the hysteria of nervous women - go and check. You have complaints against God that the world is arranged unfairly - then go and ask Him yourself what is going on. Someone told you something that horrified you or seemed absurd to you - find everything out yourself from the One who is the source of this strangeness. But do not sit idle; seek.
There are questions whose answers we can receive only by turning to the One who can answer them. Even if the very thought that we need to turn to Him personally, without intermediaries, meets resistance in us. We should not be satisfied with retellings and other people's opinions. In our relationship with God, we must first of all rely on the fact that He came to restore a direct connection with each person. Including me.
