    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Mar 27, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,227 views

    A key accomplishment of the empty tomb is so Jesus might be “the Lord of both the dead and the living.” Lordship implies ownership or the right to exercise authority over another. When we come to Jesus, we're under new management.
