John 2:22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
(The wording of Christ is symbolic, explained by John. If symbolic, is the temple of His body referring to the church, or Christ’s physical flesh? It could be both, so see 1 Cor. 12.)

I don’t have any great wisdom to convey, but I thought, what a shame that no one has replied with a t comment, so I comment. I have listened to this debate about who raised Jesus, His Father or Himself. I have leaned in the direction that the Father raised Jesus. I’m a rather simple man text like, Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. I understand, believe and cling to.
