Resurrection Sunday

Follow Along with the Message

The angel says to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?” (Luke 24:5)

Easter is about…

1.   Jesus Through Our  .

Diane Chen in her commentary on Luke wrote,  “What seemed disjointed and fragmented before is now an integrated picture. With Jesus’ help, the two have connected the dots in their Scriptures and drawn the line from Moses through the prophets to Jesus. They now understand the necessity of the death of the Messiah and the victory of his resurrection.”

We all know what it’s like to be Thomas, in both his doubt and his faith.

Gerald Borchert wrote in the New American Commentary, “Thomas has often been vilified by Christians because of his early doubts. But throughout this Gospel he has been presented as a realist, a person who evaluated situations on the basis of what he could perceive… Thomas is not merely a pathetic doubter. He is a paradigm of many Christians who are capable of great possibilities as well as great hesitations in faith.”

Can you see through your doubts today and claim hold of the victory of Easter?
