Day 293: Psalm 108, Proverbs 14:13-15, Matthew 27, Jeremiah 15-16
Jesus Is Alive
Resurrection of Jesus is the basis of our Christian faith, without which we are without hope. In today's reading in Matthew, verses 62-66, we can see that the chief priests and Pharisees took great pain and effort to ensure the tomb was made secure until the third day, a heavy stone was duly sealed and guards were commanded to make the tomb as secured as possible. Despite all those effort, history shows us the indisputable fact of an empty tomb. Jesus DID ARISE and He appeared to more than 500 people before He ascended and He promised He would return the same way as He ascended (Acts 1:9-11). Harvard Law Professor Dr. Simon Greenleaf said,"According to the laws of legal evidence used in courts of law, there is more evidence for the historical fact of the resurrection of Jesus Christ than for just about any other event in history.” “The cross is the victory, the resurrection is the triumph…The resurrection is the public display of the victory, the triumph of the crucified one.” (Leon Morris).
