True believer?

They did not believe until they saw him resurrected. And they included in their testimony that the first witnesses were women, which (by the rules of the day) would have gotten them laughed out of the public square.

I have not argued that all miracles are the proof of every claim. I only argue that they were used as proof when God demanded radical trust. Moses himself admitted that sometimes false prophets would perform miracles (Deut 13) - so the believer has an obligation to look beyond the miracle to the claim being made. Any claim contrary to what has been previously revealed is bogus, regardless of whether it is attested by a miracle.
