Luke 24:1-12
(sermon outline for Easter, April 12)
On Sunday morning, the tomb of Jesus was discovered to be unoccupied.
"Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Luke 24:5-6 NIV
- After the crucifixion the body of Jesus was interred in a secure tomb.
- On the third day the tomb was discovered to be vacant.
- This discovery immediately evoked a variety of emotions and responses.
- The women were “perplexed.”
- Then they were “terrified.”
- Simon Peter was “amazed.”
- After the resurrection, the followers of Jesus experienced a remarkable change.
Because the tomb is “vacant,” your life can be “occupied” by the resurrected Christ.
