As I have read about the resurrection morning and cross referenced the different gospel accounts I asked myself, “What really happened?” Of course that cannot be answered because we were not there. Some ask why the accounts are so different and how can we come to the conclusion that any of it really happened. So I decided to investigate this myself. I came upon some interesting reads that I will share. I pray they shed some light on the resurrection accounts. One site gave the idea to write down the parts of the accounts and compare them to each other. I recommend you do this for yourself this week meditating on the accounts given and praying for revelation from the Lord. To help you out here are the chapters of the bible covering the resurrection:
Here are some explanations I found rather interesting that shed light on that morning:
Something I thought of while studying this is how easy it is for one story to be told by one person, and after it gets to the hundredth person it can be a totally different account. In the days of the resurrection news spread by word of mouth. A look at the men on the road to Emmaus tells us that. Here is a great game to explain why this happens
Bible Word of God Game.
Share what you know about the resurrection as a comment this week. In all the accounts the tomb is empty. That is all I need to know! He is Risen, Hallelujah!

Really y’all I’m just another Samaritan woman seeking living water and pouring out where I see need for encouragement. I am 48, mother to four girls ages 16-26, Gigi to the most handsome 2-year-old little boy, Fibromyalgia warrior, minister, writer, and a lifetime learner.
I am writing my first book, slowly but surely, six chapters in, as our blessed first love has called me to share His glory in my story. I feel lost in that familiar desert place, and thankful for the manna that is there miraculously every day. I am overcoming hour by hour the condemning voices of the enemy and learning to love myself. It has been an arduous journey. This wordsmith journey, but so worth it.
I became a licensed minister in 2010. However, I do not currently work in the ministry. I share Christ's love through devotional blogging. I have a degree in Church Ministry, was pursuing my degree in Christian Care and Counseling at Oral Roberts University, but now am pursuing Life Coaching, and Neurolinguistic Programming Master Practioner Certifications and a business license.
I am a certified women’s biblical counselor through the Extraordinary Women's program at Light University. I am working on their Addiction and Recovery program now too. Yes, I am a glutton for punishment with a wealth of life experiences with which I can minister comfort to others.
I'm a lover of a good book, writing, singing, and music, and my nemesis is the perpetual laundry pile.
Blessings to you and yours,
<3Melinda
