In this glorious passage, we witness the empty tomb and hear the heavenly declaration that forever changed history—Jesus Christ is risen.In verses 1–2, we see the women coming to the sepulchre early, only to experience a great earthquake as the angel of the Lord descends and rolls back the stone. This was not to let Christ out, but to show the world that He had already risen, just as He said.Verse 3 describes the angel’s appearance, “His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow,” reminding us of the power and glory of God on display at the resurrection.In verses 5–6, the angel delivers the greatest message ever given: “Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.” The resurrection is the foundation of our faith, proving that Christ has victory over sin, death, and the grave.Verse 7 calls for a response: “Go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead.” The message of the resurrection is not to be kept to ourselves—it is to be shared with the world.This message will explore:• The power and reality of the resurrection of Jesus Christ• The message delivered by the angel at the empty tomb• The fulfillment of Christ’s promise that He would rise again• The responsibility to share the good news with othersCome join us as we celebrate the resurrection of our Savior and rejoice in the message that brings hope, victory, and eternal life to all who believe.
