Intro
So for a few minutes this evening, I want you to consider the resurrection of Jesus, we have just celebrated it for Easter...
Here is the point I want us to consider this evening… Why celebrate the resurrection/
why is it important to us and why we can praise God each day because of it.
So lets examine the first part of this thought.... Why celebrate the resurrection, why is it important?
1.
We were Guilty in our sin
let me share why?
One man
We know that Adam brought sin into the world and as such every generation after him is guilty of sin, we hold death in our lives.
This truth left us ‘wanting” literally being weighed in the balances before God...
What could we do to please God? Nothing… listen to Isaiah
Because Jesus rose from the dead.
So while our righteousness was unacceptable
We were guilty in His presence,
Since we could do nothing about our sin, nothing to improve our state in front of God, we should be grateful that God did what we could not…
our guilty was a stain we could not clean, but by His stripes we are healed
We can celebrate Easter, we can celebrate every Sunday because he died on the cross for our sin.
Now the next thoguht
2. Because Jesus rose from the dead.
2. Because Jesus rose from the dead.
The resurrection is important because of the truth that Jesus rose from the dead on the rist day of the week.
We know the truth of what happened three days before… Jesus was arrested and brought before Pilate...
.... talk about Jesus being arrested and what happened after that..............
They buried our Savior in a new tomb ....
3 days pass and then the stone was rolled away....
Tell about Mary Magdalene and the other Mary going to the tomb on the first day of the week… what did they find?
The stone was rolled away, the angel of the Lord greeted them and told them the news of His resurrection....
Matthew 2
Later that evening .... and 8 days later....
The 10, and then even to Thomas the Lord appeared too and the great confession, of My Lord and my God.
....
Such a wonderful testimony of a man whose life was filled with doubt and then saw the Lord risen and gave praise to Him...
And then finally my thoughts think of a future hope...
3. The Resurrection gives us a Future Hope
The other day I was looking at Paul’s writing to the believers at Thessalnica.
Their were some who were doubting the resurrection, they feared death unnecessarily...
And Paul wrote to remind them of the hope they have in the face of suffering, in the face of death....
There is a compassionate cry to help....
The message of Easter should be a message hope, Jesus is alive.
........................ explain the passage
And at the end of the passage, Paul says encourage....
Encourage each other with these words,
Jesus who died,
Jesus who rose
Jesus is coming again
