Series: Easter

Bible Passage: Luke 24:1-9

CONSIDER THIS

Walking to the cemetery at sunrise, their world is in pieces. The brutal murder of their closest friend has left them struggling with a cacophony of feelings. At the tomb, the heavy stone is already rolled away. Before they can make sense of the empty grave, two angels in dazzling, radiant robes appear, asking them, “Why are you looking for the living among the dead? He isn’t here! He is risen!”

Their day of insurmountable problems becomes a day of celebration because Jesus is now alive! Even though they find it hard to believe and impossible to explain, these truths are certain:

  • Death could not hold Him
  • The grave could not keep it’s grip on Him
  • The stone could not stop Him
  • The power that raised Him is indisputable
  • The love shown on the cross is beyond comprehension
  • The victory He has won is eternally triumphant!

The fact is: He is Jesus, the King of kings — and our King is alive!

His resurrection isn’t just a story we tell or a moment we remember — it’s a reality we are invited to live. He was raised to life to make us right with God. Receive His priceless gift and it changes our lives…forever.
