Why look for the living among the dead. He is not here. He is risen!
This announcement declares that everything has changed. The world is not what it was since Jesus rose from the dead. This event has cosmic repercussions. The world is not doomed to destruction but destined for renewal.
The announcement declares redemption for the whole creation.
The resurrection has life redemptive meaning for people. But with people the announcement turns into an invitation.
Come see.
Frankly, with Easter we have only just begun.
Now we move out of our roots and ruts to know and follow Jesus.
I have seen the Lord! Come see Jesus.
We recognized him when he broke the bread. Come eat with Jesus.
Receive the Spirit and join Jesus in a life of forgiveness.
Like I said, we have only just begun.
It’s been a good day. I hope you’ve had a good day too.
Steve
