Matthew 28:1-6

“If Christ had not been raised,” says Paul, “Then our preaching is in vain, and your faith is in vain.”

In short, Jesus didn’t just talk a great game, He did a great deed. He didn’t just talk about life after death, He did it.

All the triumph that was present as He entered Jerusalem would have gone down the drain without the Resurrection. It wasn’t until the empty tomb that things went from worse to wonderful. Without it, the references to immortality are little more than a madman’s mouthings. With it, the grave becomes an open door and not a dead end street.

Feel your heart beating? When it stops beating the message of Christ has the strength of forever in it. And what a gospel this is that promises a new life waiting, that looks at our flesh and reminds us that it is but a mortal covering for our immortal soul. “Fear not” is the call of the Masters message because the truth of eternity is there ready to come breaking through.

But dying is so final,” argue some. And I have to reply, “Final? Final to what? To money in the bank? I agree – we can’t take it with us. To a body most often grown aging and old? I agree. Or to a body withered by sickness or maimed by accident? I agree. To cars and clothes and all things physical as we know them? I agree.

But I also agree, with great joy, the heavenly underlined words of your Jesus and mine, “I am the Resurrection and the Life.”
