THe Resurrection of Jesus

Notes
Transcript

When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. 2 And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. 3 And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?” 4 And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back—it was very large. 5 And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed. 6 And he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. 7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you

Saturday there is no word, their hearts were broken for the one whom they believed would redeem Isreal, the who raised the dead is now himself deceased.

Dead along with Jesus are their hopes, their dreams of a better time and now since Friday they haven’t heard anything. So there is a know news the this Jesus who said if you destroy this temple in 3 days i’ll raise it up.

His Disciples are in an up room with fear , his follows have disappeared in fear and no one has received any word as it relates to Jesus Christ being who he said he is*.

Friday was noisy, loud, filled with crowds and crowds of people, there was pain and agony, nails, a crown of thrones, blood, and a old rugged cross, But Saturday there’s no word!

In the wheel call of their minds they can still remember a blood stained cross upon a skull shaped hill , when man had did his worst God performed his best.

They remember 3 crosses:

One man dying in sin

One man dying to sin

One man dying for sin

The sun disappears , the earth is reeling and rocking and they hear the voice of the Santirian Soldier who was once and unbeliever say “SURELY THIS HAS TO BE THE SON OF GOD”. There still is no word!

Text:

These 3 women are on their way to the tomb to anoint the body of Jesus.

1. Observation: And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. 3 And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?” 4 And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back—it was very large.

3 Women get to the tomb and observe that the stone has been rolled away, not to let JESUS out but let the witnesses in!!

Anytime God does something Awesome and incredible there ought to be a witness.

Healing takes place, there ought to be a witness
Deliverance takes place, there ought to be a witness
Food on your table, there should be a witness
Money in your pocket, there should be a witness
AND A EMPTY BORROWED TOMB, THERE HAD TO BE A WITNESS!!!! *

THEY NOW MOVE FROM A STATE OF OBSERVATION TO STAT OF INVESTIGATION.

2. Investigation: v.5 And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed.

The young man says, “Do not be afraid”. He’s letting them know that now you can experience peace. There is no longer a issue between you and God for Jesus has handle it, he has taken care of it all on your behalf, JESUS HAS BEEN YOUR PROPECIATION, THE DEBT HAS BEEN PAID AND NOW YOU CAN BE FREE!!! *

Their investigation brought them a messenger with a message about their Messiah and what he had done for the masses..

Their Investigation brought them a message

I know this morning i’m talking to somebody who has been through something that can testify when you were afraid or in doubt about your your situation God sent a messenger from out of nowhere to tell you:

Don’t be afraid God’s got you.
Their investigation brought them
Hold on and don’ let go.
God is working out for you
Be not this mayed whatever be tied God will take care of you.

But in order to get the message you had to be noisy, you had to move from a state of observation to a place of investigation to find out that somebody has gone through what you are dealing with and the Lord brought them out , I FILL LIKE THE SONG WRITER THIS MORNING IF HE DID IT BEFORE HE CAN DO IT AGAIN!!!!!!!

3. .6 And he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him.

He didn’t ask them who they were looking for, he told them who they were looking for!! “You seeking JESUS of Nazareth” “He was crucified, He has risen and he’s not here”, “ look where he was laid” EMPTY !! THATS A SHOUT RIGHT THERE, THIS IS WHERE HE WAS AND THIS IS WHERE HE IS NO MORE!!

IT SAYS LAY - talks about his grave clothes inperticular, the napkin the covered his head was not thrown aside it was folded… etc.... “Master Eat, Servant Claears the Table” it was jewish custom in those days ...

4. Celebration: V.7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you

JUST as He told You.... Were not here to celebrate that he died, where he this morning to celebrate that he lives!!!!
