Leaving that region, they traveled through Galilee. Jesus didn\\u2019t want anyone to know he was there, for he wanted to spend more time with his disciples and teach them. Mark 9:30-32 (NLT)

On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared\\xa0and went to the tomb. \\xa0They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. Luke 24:1-48 (NIV)

\\n

While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning\\xa0stood beside them.\\xa0 In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them\\u2026 Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

\\u2026\\u201cWhy do you look for the living among the dead?\\xa0 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: \\u2018The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.\\u2019\\u201d Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

Then they remembered his words. Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.\\xa0 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them who told this to the apostles.\\xa0Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

But they did not believe\\xa0the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense.\\xa0Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. Bending over, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he went away,\\xa0wondering to himself what had happened\\u2026 Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them,\\xa0\\u201cPeace be with you.\\u201d Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

He said to them,\\xa0\\u201cWhy are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds?\\xa0 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see;\\xa0a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.\\u201d When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet.\\xa0Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them,\\xa0\\u201cDo you have anything here to eat?\\u201d They gave him a piece of broiled fish,\\xa0and he took it and ate it in their presence. Luke 24:1-48(NIV)\\xa0

\\n

He said to them,\\xa0\\u201cThis is what I told you while I was still with you:\\xa0Everything must be fulfilled\\xa0that is written about me in the Law of Moses,\\xa0the Prophets\\xa0and the Psalms.\\u201d Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.\\xa0Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

He told them,\\xa0\\u201cThis is what is written: The Messiah will suffer\\xa0and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name\\xa0to all nations,\\xa0beginning at Jerusalem. \\xa0You are witnesses of these things. Luke 24:1-48(NIV)

\\n

The Old Testament POINTS to God\\u2026 the Gospel is the WAY to God\\u2026 the New Testament teaches \\xa0us how to WALK with God.

\\n

\\n
1. REMEMBER THE EMPTY GRAVE
\\n

\\n

Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel\\u2026 2 Timothy 2:8 (NIV)

\\n

That Jesus LIVED, means little\\u2026 That Jesus is ALIVE, means everything.\\xa0

\\n

The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you. Romans 8:11 (NLT)

\\n

Jesus didn\\u2019t give His life to take you from bad to good\\u2026 but from death to LIFE!

\\n

\\n
2. REMEMBER MERCY
\\n

\\n

Against you, and you alone, have I sinned; I have done what is evil in your sight. You will be proved right in what you say, and your judgment against me is just. Psalm 51:4 (NLT)

\\n

Your darkest moment\\u2026 couldn\\u2019t overshadow He did for YOU.

\\n

\\n
3. REMEMBER LOVE
\\n

\\n

Love = living for the other person\\u2019s good

\\n

For this is how God loved the world: He gave\\xa0his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 (NLT)

\\n

It was not nails that held Him on that cross\\u2026 it was His love for you.

\\n

No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. Romans 8:37-39 (NLT)

\\n

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God\\u2019s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow\\u2014not even the powers of hell can separate us from God\\u2019s love.\\xa0Romans 8:37-39 (NLT)

\\n

No power in the sky above or in the earth below\\u2014indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:37-39 (NLT)

\\n

Your biggest mistake\\u2026 doesn\\u2019t change the way He sees you.
