Matthew 28:6 ESV He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.

Good morning and praise God. I hope you're blessed this morning. Yesterday we observed Good Friday, a good Friday because someone did something good for some bad guys. The bad guys are you and me and the person is Jesus. He sacrificed His own life according to scriptures to pay the debt of sins we commit. It wasn't a shot in the head death but rather a cruel one! The Roman way of punishing treasonous criminals. It was a victory when on that cross Jesus exclaimed "it is finished". However, it needed a mark that it was true Jesus was above daath. Jesus promised to rebuild the new temple in three days! People then wondered how, a temple in three days yet Solomon took many years to build one? Jesus meant the new temple which is the temple of Holy Spirit that is in you. He meant He would die and after three days resurrect. In our verse today, we see angels announcing to the two Mary " He is not here, for he has risen as he said. Come , see the place where he lay". These words are critical for our faith as Christian. It is our foundation that gives us the confidence to sing "Our Savior lives". It is the message that Jews have tried to bury because they rejected Jesus. They even paid the guards to lie that disciples came and stole the body of Jesus but that lie was too late. Jesus Christ spent with the disciples 40 days after resurrection. It was all evident that Satan lost permanently! The only key left to him was lies for he is father or lies and all who lies! Jesus is the way, truth and life. Through him we confidently approach God, not as sinners but as forgiven sinners through Him! Hallelujah! The victory is ours! He is risen. The evidence is too much to be hidden. Trust Him. Trust your Savior. Praise Him. Know the truth and let the truth set you free. God loves you, have a blessed day. Shalom. Shalom.
