...he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also ...22 (106:7)

Now Christ’s appearances to His disciples after the resurrection took place long before Paul’s experience on the road to Damascus. Dunkerly, in Beyond the Gospels, says, "...it is interesting to find Paul speaking of his conversion as one of the resurrection appearances; this raises problems as to the nature of the resurrection, but we cannot enter into that here."23 (106:8)

In one of the famous creeds of the Christian church are found the words: "He descended into Hell, the third day He rose again from the dead." It is further stated in this creed that true faith is based upon the belief in the "resurrection of the body". (106:9)
