The Resurrection Series

Contributed by Gary Moore on Feb 4, 2008

Matthew’s account of the resurrection. Matthew’s narrative of e Galilean encounter with the disciples is a culmination to the gospel which accentuates the Trinitarian nature of God and the mission of the believer.

He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. The gospels each relate the account of the resurrection according to their own purpose, consequently there are considerable differences between the Gospels (refer to the recent bulletin insert for a harmonization of those events), but with all the ...read more

Taking our teaching from Romans 6:4, we’ll be looking at the basis of our greeting one another during this time and what the resurrection proves and guarantees, and some of the evidence to prove the resurrection beyond a shadow of a doubt. Christ is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!
