"We
have a living, risen Savior.
---He burst the fetters of the tomb after He
had lain there three days, and in triumph.
---He proclaimed over the rent
sepulcher of Joseph, “I am the resurrection and the life.” (John 11:25).
Q: Are we getting ready for Him?
Q: Are we ready so that if we shall
fall asleep, we can do so with hope in Jesus Christ?
--The Life-giver is soon
to come.
--The Life-giver is coming to break the fetters of the tomb.
He
is to bring forth the captives and proclaim, “I am the resurrection and
the life.”
There stands the risen host.
The last thought was of death
and its pangs.
The last thoughts they had were of the grave and the
tomb, but now they proclaim, “O death, where is thy sting? O grave,
where is thy victory?” (1 Corinthians 15:55).
The pangs of death were the last things they
felt. “O death, where is thy sting?” The last thing they acknowledged
was the pangs of death. When they awake the pain is all gone...." E.G.W.
