Either it's really true or some sort of vision, wishful thinking or dream.
Vision/Dream?
The disciples wanted to see Jesus again and maybe they dreamed or just imagined they saw him. Dreams seem real for the moment but they disappear. Visions only appear to one person at a time. Dreams and visions don't appear to 7 people at the same time. And does a vision speak or make a fire and cook food. The vision/dream explanation doesn't really hold up.
Invented Story?
If the disciples had invented Jesus resurrection, then they are the biggest liars in history. It's a very serious charge to bring against simple fishermen. They would have had to live under their continued lie without failure throughout the whole of their lives... even to death... without faltering. This too is very unlikely.
Is it true then?
There is no other real explanation. The evidence proves Jesus is the Son of God and did rise from the dead, that His sacrifice for sin worked. If he hadn't have risen from the dead His death would just have been a shame and an injustice, but He DID rise and HAS saved His people. It proves there is life after death and Jesus is our hope of Heaven.
If you want eternal life, you must believe it too. He is worth trusting. It's the best way of life and eternity.
