The Easter Revolution (Easter People)

You know it is a bit ironic because the disciples had been looking for Jesus to lead a revolution and free Israel from Roman rule. When Jesus died they thought the revolution had died with Him. Little did they know that they revolution hadn’t ended it was just getting started. Oh and yes it would be the revolution they never saw coming. It didn’t free Israel from Rome, it freed mankind from Death, Satan and Sin, and the revolution continues today. It is just whether or not we are a part of it. Now in the passage we just read, Paul is laying a foundation for this revolution and giving His own account of the Easter Story. He shares how the Easter Story, or the Gospel is supported by 2 very significant elements.
