LUKE 24 is a beautiful chapter...can you imagine having CHRIST appear to you, sit, eat and talk with you! HOW AMAZING THAT WOULD BE!!! What amazes me also is how they had the old testament to teach them about Christ and yet they still didn't know Him. Also how HE had spent time with them and worked miracles in front of them and they still didn't understand Him nor recognize Him when they saw HIM.
That unlike some churches today , they were prevented from reading the old testament, that the church then, like today, would have the power to make people believe in false doctrine.Teach only the law ,faith by works. Clearly Christ taught and proved who he was ,the messiah. The word was made flesh and dwelt among us. Christ reveals the Father and the Son. While, we who through faith,are born again in the knowledge of God, we become his witness unto the ends of the world! Christ healed those who could not SEE, or HEAR, the DUMB, LAMB. This is the power in His word, not only the physical, but the spiritual deaf,dumb,and blind.those that have ears to hear, eyes to see. Christ is to save us.
Not recognizing Jesus was due to Jesus himself not wanting them to until he was ready. Teaching them from the scriptures was his plan, finally revealing himself at the chosen time.
