Easter generally gets me ruminating . . .

Thinking how when Jesus “showed-up” he revealed the eternal God in time … thats a “story to tell and follow” … story it is - it ain’t no fable …

Peter (and friends who were in the event) see it all this way …

"We did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, 'This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.’ We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.” II Peter 1:16-18

Fables don’t just “possibly” lead one up the garden path, since that’s where they started, that’s where they’ll end. Christian truth is lineal -revelation, not circular reasoning.
