He is Not Here, But He is Risen!

Sunday Service: April 20, 2025 • Pastor Q Kim at HOPE Church in Clarksville, MD ---

In PQ’s sermon titled "He's Not Here, But He Has Risen," he walks through the emotional and spiritual journey from Jesus’ crucifixion to the resurrection, highlighting the significance of the “in-between” day—Saturday—as a time of deep despair, confusion, and waiting. He emphasizes the faithfulness of the women who followed Jesus, their role as the first witnesses to the resurrection, and the powerful moment when the angel declared, “He is not here, but has risen,” reminding them of Jesus’ earlier words. PQ underscores how the resurrection confirmed Jesus’ identity and fulfilled God’s promises, turning what seemed like a hopeless end into the beginning of new life. The resurrection is the game-changer of Christianity—proof that Jesus is who He claimed to be, and that His followers are called not just to remember, but to believe, proclaim, and live in the truth of the risen Christ.
