“But
on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they (the women) came to the tomb
bringing spices which they had prepared.
And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but 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; and as the women were
terrified and bowed 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 has 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 and be crucified,
and the third day rise again.”
“And
they remembered His words, and returned from the tomb and reported all these
things to the eleven and to all the rest.”
Luke
24:1-9
So,
begins the rest of the story: It is the
story of the resurrection and new life for all who believe in Him. Jesus died once for all sinners, and He
lives forever to bring us forgiveness and eternal life.
