What Are You Expecting? Luke 24
from bpchurch Sermons · host Pastor Bob Carlson
We love the ironic surprise of Luke 24: the women at the tomb and the two on the road to Emmaus. Night is turned to day, their despair is turned to day; why were they looking for the living among the dead?! The answer is that they weren't looking for the living, they were expecting that Jesus was dead. Sure, they should have known better: "Remember how he told you..." (24:6). But then again, we can't be too hard on them, we also should know better. You see, often our perspective is also still stuck in the past - how everything was before. We too need to remember what he has told us and how that changes everything.
