Will You Believe? 4/20/2014


Encountering a dead person resurrected from their grave must be incredibly unsettling—to say the least. Women came to Jesus' grave expecting to see a lifeless corpse that they would anoint with spices as was their custom.  

But when they arrived they were ambushed. Their world suddenly turned on his head. The marker of death, gone! And replaced with a frightening, unsettling, idea: The dead body of Jesus was no longer dead.

Christians are those who believe that the book end to our life, death itself, was unhinged by Jesus. His life which began with a virgin birth did end... but then un-ended by a resurrection from death.

For those who say, “Jesus is my one and only God who lived, died and rose from the grave for my life,” for those who willingly say, “I believe it,” for them there is no more fear in death. The entrance into Heaven itself now lies wide open for all who believe.
Would you believe?
