Truths

Truths appear in drips, streams, flows and pours. Drinking from the fountains of truth holds pleasures and benefits galore. Yep, truths poured in and truths poured out -- to constructively share. Truths sure can favorably do our lives well.

Initially, truths don’t always please our thirsty appetites. Often, though, when we allow them to rest in soak formation, to marinate and then to sink in thoroughly, our thirsts are satisfyingly quenched. Acceptance of truths adds to successful accomplishments of our action plans -- with relish.

Certainly, digesting truth proves good for our systems.

Eleven or Twelve?

Hi -

The scriptures below are relative to AFTER the resurrection of Jesus.


Paul in 1 Corinthians 15 mentions that Jesus was seen of the TWELVE.

Luke and Mark mention ELEVEN.

"1 Corinthians 15:4 - KJV
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"

"1 Corinthians 15:5 - KJV
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:"

"Mark 16:14 - KJV
Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen."

"Luke 24:9 - KJV
And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest."

"Luke 24:33
And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,"
