Sermon Series: Easter Sunday [April 20, 2025]
Message by Doug Bunnell, recorded live April 20, 2025 at First Presbyterian Church of Bellingham.
Easter Sunday
Nothing, nothing, nothing is too wonderful for the Lord and Resurrection is the pinnacle of that reality.
- How does the resurrection of Jesus play into the narrative of this passage?
- What is the reaction of the disciples when they first see Jesus, how does Jesus address the disciples' fears and doubts?
- What strikes you about Jesus asking them if they had something to eat ?
- What does Jesus mean in verse 47 when He says, “repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in His name to all nations”?
- Why is the giving of the Holy Spirit important for the disciples?
- What does the disciples' initial doubt and Jesus' response teach us about dealing with doubt in our faith?
- In what ways can the message of forgiveness and repentance in verse 47 shape how we live and share the gospel today?
Luke 24:36-49
36 While they were talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.” 37 They were startled and terrified and thought that they were seeing a ghost. 38 He said to them, “Why are you frightened, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 Look at my hands and my feet; see that it is I myself. Touch me and see, for a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” 40 And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. 41 Yet for all their joy they were still disbelieving and wondering, and he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he took it and ate in their presence.
44 Then he said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you—that everything written about me in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms must be fulfilled.” 45 Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures, 46 and he said to them, “Thus it is written, that the Messiah is to suffer and to rise from the dead on the third day 47 and that repentance and forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. 48 You are witnesses of these things. 49 And see, I am sending upon you what my Father promised, so stay here in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”
