Easter is too marvelous for words, but we’re going to try.
Luke 24 is an account of the resurrection: from the morning when the empty tomb was discovered, to the middle of the day when Jesus appeared on the road to Emmaus, to the evening when Jesus appeared to his disciples. And in that evening account, we see that Jesus said a number of things to his disciples.
We can learn three things about the resurrection of Jesus Christ from what happens that evening: 1) the resurrection of Jesus Christ is a paradigm-shattering historical event, 2) the resurrection of Jesus Christ is the key to understanding the message of the entire Bible, and 3) the resurrection is the strongest message of hope possible.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 20, 2014. Series: Knowing Jesus. Scripture: Luke 24:36-49.
