9. 1)Faith. Cleopas and Mary saw and believed that Jesus died and rose again; Jesus asks us to believe without seeing Without faith it is impossible to please God, b/c anyone who comes to God must believe that God exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. Hebrews 11:6

10. 1)Faith. Cleopas and Mary saw and believed that Jesus died and rose again; Jesus asks us to believe without seeing. 2)The resurrection matters. If Jesus didn’t rise from the dead, our faith is useless. If Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is you faith…. And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile…. If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men. 1 Corinthians 15:14, 17, 19
