What is a true Christian? One who follows Jesus Christ. A true Christian also follows His true apostles, prophets and other leaders who look to Christ.
After Christ was crucified and risen, He appeared to a group of Jews who did not recognize Him. They were talking about the mighty words and deeds of a prophet named Jesus, who had been killed, but whose tomb was then found to be empty. They were disappointed because they had hoped that this man would rise up to save the nation of Israel. They did not understand the purpose of Christ’s first coming nor that He would not rule Israel and all other nations until His Second Coming.
Then Christ said something very important to them: “Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken” (Luke 24:25).
