We proclaim to you the one who existed from the beginning, whom we have heard and seen. We saw him with our own eyes and touched him with our own hands. He is the Word of life. This one who is life itself was revealed to us, and we have seen him. And now we testify and proclaim to you that he is the one who is eternal life. He was with the Father, and then he was revealed to us. We proclaim to you what we ourselves have actually seen and heard so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We are writing these things so that you may fully share our joy. 1 John 1:1-4
We have heard Him with our own ears, seen Him with our own eyes and touched Him with our own hands.
Imagine being able to say that about Jesus Christ, the Son of God. We touched Him, we walked with Him all over Judea and Samaria, we ate and drank with Him, we prayed with Him, we slept on the road with Him for three years, we picked grain with Him on the Sabbath, He washed our feet, and mostly, we talked with Him — for three years we talked and listened.
