THE LIFE OF JESUS
Part 20: The Resurrection |
|
When the atonement was finished on the cross, the Son
of God left His body and went to Paradise, where He stayed for three
days and nights, including a short trip over to hell to inform the
people therein that the atonement was complete and their fate was
sealed. Meanwhile, Joseph of Arimathea collected the body
of Jesus and put him in a tomb and the Sanhedrin nervously stationed
Roman soldiers outside, not because they believed He would rise from
the dead, but because they didn't want the body stolen. The
disciples of Jesus had gone into hiding, grieving over the death of
their Messiah. None of them had any faith that Jesus would be
resurrected. The third day arrived and Jesus left Paradise and
came back to the tomb. The Holy Spirit surged through the dead body,
making it come alive the moment Jesus re-entered the body. The
guards froze in fear when they saw an angel roll away the stone from
the tomb. The Jewish leadership refused to repent and initiated a
cover-up but it was impossible to contain the truth. Jesus had risen
from the dead just as He said He would! |
