SUNDAY SNAPSHOT (UNBELIEVABLY BELIEVABLE… - Easter 2017)
Whenever you talk about Easter… everyone pretty much gets the General Understanding of Easter… but what’s often missed is when you look closely at the Four Gospel Narratives (Matthew/Mark/Luke/John) – you begin to see the explicit details of how EACH of the writers share their perspectives about the Story of Easter! And one of the most Remarkable Things to me is HOW EACH OF THE WRITERS ALL END AT THE SAME CONCLUSION of this particular story! Each of them leave you with this thought… what appears to be an UNBELIEVABLE STORY… is actually quite BELIEVABLE! (It’s…) UNBELIEVABLY BELIEVABLE!
Sunday Snapshot… UNBELIEVABLY BELIEVABLE (Easter 2017)
THE SINGLE EVENT that catapulted the NAME and MESSAGE of JESUS into HISTORY… was NOT in the SIGNIFICANCE of WHAT JESUS SAID… IT WAS IN WHAT HE DID!
HE… ROSE… FROM… THE… DEAD!!!
We BELIEVE that JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD because we have “EYEWITNESSES” to the FACT that HE DID!
THE GOSPELS (Matthew/Mark/Luke/John) are considered RELIABLE because of WHO wrote them… and WHEN they were written!
NOBODY was standing outside His Tomb that First Easter Morning! (Because…) Everyone believed JESUS WAS DEAD and STAYING DEAD!
If JESUS’ DISCIPLES weren’t willing to DIE FOR JESUS while HE WAS ALIVE… WHY would they NOW be willing to DIE FOR JESUS now that HE WAS DEAD!?
NOBODY EXPECTED NO…BODY!
