Acts 1:1-3
Jesus Saw His Disciples Over A Period of Forty Days After His Resurrection
1 In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach 2 until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. 3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive.
Revelation 21:21
Heaven, City of Gold and Pearly Gates
21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass.
Over the period of forty days the Disciples saw Jesus many times...After His resurrection, He presented Himself to them and gave them many convincing proofs that He was still alive...After the forty days I am sure the Disciples were sure and certain that Jesus had resurrected from His death...They had no doubts...
Today, it seems like and maybe this is just me, we have this vague, doubt, and unsure hope that there is this place called heaven with a city of gold entered by the pearly gates...
