The Resurrection - The Devoted Women At The Tomb – Resurrection Message For Easter – Part 2 Series

How could the disciples be so thick that they would not believe the resurrection? Disbelief translated all the truth of the women’s testimony and joy to nonsense. As the fact of the resurrection spread, joy and excitement replaced the sorrow and defeatism they all had.

Today's Easter Message is how Jesus went all the way in His death and burial, but also came all the way out in His resurrection. And to follow His example we need go all the way in in our relationship with Him, we'll come out saved, sanctified, and glorified in heaven.

Fun Is Fundamental Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 6, 2021
