Notes:
WHY are we here celebrating Easter?
Easter celebrates the historical event of Jesus’s resurrection
If Jesus stayed dead, His words, actions, ideas, and teachings are useless
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
- John 14:6
-Con man
-Crazy delusional
-Christ the King
When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”
“…This is blasphemy! God is the only one who can forgive sins!”
- Mark 2:5-7
The thief said to Jesus, “Remember me, Jesus, when you come as King!”
Jesus replied, “I promise you that today you will be in Paradise with me.”
- Luke 23:42-43
…the chief priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate. “Sir,” they said, “we remember that while he was still alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’ So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day.”
- Matthew 27:62-66
“Take a guard,” Pilate answered. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.” So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal on the stone and posting the guard.
- Matthew 27:62-66
JESUS PROMISES: - Forgiveness - Eternal life - God’s love conquers evil & you matter
NO RESURRECTION: - No forgiveness – No eternal life – evil wins and life is meaningless
Jesus can’t be good if he was lying about who he claimed to be
For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve.
- 1st Corinthians 15:3-8
After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
- 1st Corinthians 15:3-8
PAUL THE APOSTLE
-Martyred in 64/65 AD
-Corinthians written 55 AD
-Jesus crucified 33 AD
-That’s 22 YEARS, not centuries later!
“Pilate condemned him to be crucified and to die. But those who became his disciples did not abandon his discipleship. They reported that he had appeared to them three days after his crucifixion, AND THAT HE WAS ALIVE.”
Flavius Josephus – Antiquities of the Jews- 90’s AD
Personally Matters:
-Jesus’s love shows you matter
-Jesus’s death erases our sin
-Jesus’s life destroys death
Jesus’s resurrection proves that His love, forgiveness, and offer of eternal life are real!
