On the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.
But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. When they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
While they were perplexed about this, behold two men suddenly stood near them in dazzling clothing. The women were terrified, bowing their faces to the ground.
The men said to them, "Why do you seek the Living One among the dead? He is not here, but he is risen. Remember . . . how he spoke to you while he was still in Galilee, saying that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men to be crucified . . . and on the third day rise again!
And this, my friends, was the greatest event in all of history. There is no other human accomplishment that can compare with it.
Believe and live forever with the one and only person to be executed as a criminal, to the point of death . . . and then live to tell about it!
