00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:01.500
 Hear God's Word.

00:00:03.300 --> 00:00:09.220
 When the Sabbath was passed, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of the Romans, and Salome bought

00:00:09.220 --> 00:00:13.780
 spices so that they might go and anoint Him, Jesus, who had died.

00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:20.179
 And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb.

00:00:21.140 --> 00:00:25.039
 And they were saying to one another, who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance

00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:25.600
 of the tomb?

00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:28.120
 And looking up, they saw the stone had been rolled back.

00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:32.799
 It was very large, and entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side,

00:00:32.939 --> 00:00:36.399
 dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed.

00:00:36.859 --> 00:00:39.219
 And He said to them, do not be alarmed.

00:00:39.299 --> 00:00:41.640
 You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who is crucified.

00:00:41.859 --> 00:00:42.500
 He is risen.

00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:44.079
 He has risen.

00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:46.120
 He's not here.

00:00:48.040 --> 00:00:49.719
 See the place where they laid Him?

00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:56.140
 But go tell His disciples and Peter that He is going before you to Galilee.

00:00:56.140 --> 00:01:00.200
 There you will see Him, just as He told you.

00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:05.980
 And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them.

00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:09.879
 And they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

00:01:11.620 --> 00:01:14.359
 May God bless the Word.

00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:16.780
 Aslan.

00:01:16.780 --> 00:01:16.859
 Aslan.

00:01:18.780 --> 00:01:24.219
 That great Christ figure of the Narnia series by C.S. Lewis.

00:01:24.500 --> 00:01:26.140
 The Mighty Lion.

00:01:28.180 --> 00:01:30.439
 What a great book series if you haven't read that.

00:01:31.359 --> 00:01:37.340
 Parents, if you've not yet read through the Narnia series with your children, get that on your short list.

00:01:37.340 --> 00:01:43.439
 Well, Aslan, as C.S. Lewis betrays him, is this Christ figure.

00:01:43.780 --> 00:01:47.680
 And early on in the Narnia series, and I think it's the magician's nephew,

00:01:49.260 --> 00:01:54.859
 Lewis portrays this lion as singing into creation all of Narnia.

00:01:55.580 --> 00:01:56.400
 It's a beautiful sight.

00:01:57.400 --> 00:01:59.320
 In The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe,

00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:09.199
 Aslan rescues this Narnia from the perpetual winter of the reign of the White Witch.

00:02:11.479 --> 00:02:16.120
 Well, at this moment in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe,

00:02:16.219 --> 00:02:26.659
 there's this dramatic moment where Aslan offers himself to be killed in the place of Edmund.

00:02:26.659 --> 00:02:29.520
 One of the four Pevensey children.

00:02:30.500 --> 00:02:31.599
 Edmund was the traitor.

00:02:34.139 --> 00:02:38.560
 And though betrayed, Aslan willingly offers himself to be killed by the White Witch

00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:41.460
 on that ancient stone table.

00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:45.060
 With Susan and Lucy looking on.

00:02:47.259 --> 00:02:50.240
 And then the White Witch kills Aslan.

00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:51.859
 Leaves him for dead.

00:02:51.860 --> 00:02:57.860
 And then go bringing her, her horde of beasts goes to fight Aslan's army.

00:03:00.340 --> 00:03:04.400
 Shortly afterwards, Lucy and Susan are mourning the death of Aslan.

00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:08.180
 And all of a sudden, they hear this splitting of stone.

00:03:08.900 --> 00:03:12.060
 Granite being sheaved in two.

00:03:13.340 --> 00:03:15.080
 The stone table has been split.

00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:21.380
 Deep magic has brought Aslan back from the grave.

00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:22.060
 He appears.

00:03:22.180 --> 00:03:23.140
 He's risen from the dead.

00:03:26.040 --> 00:03:30.620
 His death and resurrection changes everything in Narnia.

00:03:32.580 --> 00:03:34.520
 Aslan is this Christ figure.

00:03:35.060 --> 00:03:37.660
 And after his resurrection, he is on the move.

00:03:38.660 --> 00:03:44.200
 Breathing his life-giving breath on all of those who's been turned to stone.

00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:48.160
 This fall, we've been making our way through the Gospel of Mark.

00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:54.880
 And Mark has been making this argument all throughout it that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.

00:03:56.020 --> 00:03:59.500
 Two weeks ago, we beheld our rejected King.

00:04:00.200 --> 00:04:01.080
 Chapter 14.

00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:04.180
 Last week, we beheld our crucified King.

00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:05.240
 Chapter 15.

00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:08.020
 Remember, when Jesus breathes his last.

00:04:08.020 --> 00:04:11.920
 The curtain of the temple is torn in two from top to bottom.

00:04:12.880 --> 00:04:17.579
 And then the centurion, he cries out, having witnessed what Jesus has just done.

00:04:18.579 --> 00:04:21.259
 Says, truly, this man was the Son of God.

00:04:23.460 --> 00:04:26.439
 Today, we behold our risen King.

00:04:27.400 --> 00:04:29.759
 There are three words that come from the mouth of an angel.

00:04:29.980 --> 00:04:31.079
 And it changes everything.

00:04:31.980 --> 00:04:32.759
 He has risen.

00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:36.939
 And that should put some awe in your heart.

00:04:37.039 --> 00:04:42.759
 Because that means, by implication, that Jesus is alive today.

00:04:45.699 --> 00:04:49.480
 Are you living as if Jesus is presently alive?

00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:52.319
 Or as if he's long dead?

00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:58.219
 This Jesus is alive today.

00:04:58.459 --> 00:05:04.060
 And there are three scenes in Mark 16, 1 through 8, that will help us to see that.

00:05:05.300 --> 00:05:06.300
 Going to the tomb.

00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:07.639
 In the tomb.

00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:09.120
 Coming out of the tomb.

00:05:09.500 --> 00:05:10.939
 So let's look at scene number one.

00:05:11.339 --> 00:05:12.659
 Going to the tomb.

00:05:13.019 --> 00:05:14.579
 It's in verses 1 through 4.

00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:16.480
 And we start with these women.

00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:18.900
 When the Sabbath was passed.

00:05:19.100 --> 00:05:19.700
 That's Saturday.

00:05:19.900 --> 00:05:22.080
 Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Salome.

00:05:22.340 --> 00:05:26.460
 Bought spices so that they go and anoint Jesus.

00:05:26.660 --> 00:05:30.379
 Jesus, of course, has been killed on Friday.

00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:31.819
 It's now Sunday.

00:05:33.020 --> 00:05:36.060
 We've already been introduced to the Marys.

00:05:36.860 --> 00:05:39.439
 If you look up one verse to 1547.

00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:43.939
 At Christ's death, his body's been given to Pilate.

00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:45.400
 Been placed in a tomb.

00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:52.179
 In verse 47, Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Jesus, Joseph, saw where he was laid.

00:05:52.459 --> 00:05:58.000
 So Mary and Mary have eyewitness account of the tomb that Jesus' body was laid in.

00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:02.539
 If you look at 1540, they're also referenced.

00:06:04.379 --> 00:06:05.560
 The centurion has just said,

00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:07.120
 Surely this man was the Son of God.

00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:10.159
 In verse 40, there were also women looking on from a distance,

00:06:10.799 --> 00:06:15.099
 among whom were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James, the younger, and of Joseph.

00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:16.479
 And Salome.

00:06:16.899 --> 00:06:19.539
 They had been with Jesus from the beginning.

00:06:19.699 --> 00:06:21.019
 They've been supporting in his ministry.

00:06:22.459 --> 00:06:30.379
 So you have these three women who are, on Sunday morning, have spices in hand and are going to the tomb.

00:06:30.379 --> 00:06:36.259
 By the way, that Mary of Joseph, that's Jesus' mother.

00:06:36.259 --> 00:06:43.219
 And don't miss the fact that the male disciples of Jesus are MIA.

00:06:44.719 --> 00:06:45.500
 Nowhere to be found.

00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:49.360
 Now we come to the tomb in verses 2 and 3.

00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:54.199
 And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb.

00:06:54.819 --> 00:06:56.040
 And they were saying to one another,

00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:59.600
 Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?

00:06:59.660 --> 00:07:03.720
 A tomb was a place to place a body.

00:07:04.280 --> 00:07:06.540
 It was basically a cave with a small entrance,

00:07:06.819 --> 00:07:10.800
 and there was a bigger room inside that they had a burial platform

00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:13.379
 that you'd place the corpse of someone.

00:07:13.379 --> 00:07:16.199
 And there was a confined space.

00:07:17.719 --> 00:07:20.459
 But it's pretty safe to say at this point in the account

00:07:20.459 --> 00:07:21.740
 that these three women,

00:07:22.100 --> 00:07:24.740
 what do you think they were expecting to find in the tomb?

00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:26.899
 The dead body of Jesus.

00:07:28.540 --> 00:07:31.860
 This tomb actually belonged to Joseph of Arimathea.

00:07:32.719 --> 00:07:35.959
 We learn that in verses 42 through 47 in chapter 15.

00:07:36.939 --> 00:07:38.060
 Joseph was a rich man.

00:07:38.159 --> 00:07:39.480
 He was part of the Sanhedrin.

00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:41.580
 He was looking for the kingdom of God,

00:07:41.660 --> 00:07:43.379
 which means he was a follower of Jesus.

00:07:44.340 --> 00:07:47.259
 After Jesus dies, he, Joseph of Arimathea,

00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:49.300
 goes to Pilate and asks for the body.

00:07:49.939 --> 00:07:52.780
 Pilate's surprised that Jesus had died so fast.

00:07:53.100 --> 00:07:55.620
 So he wants to confirm that.

00:07:55.700 --> 00:07:59.620
 He asks for the centurion who confessed that Jesus was the Son of God.

00:08:00.020 --> 00:08:00.879
 The centurion comes.

00:08:00.960 --> 00:08:01.819
 He says, yeah, he's dead.

00:08:02.640 --> 00:08:05.640
 Pilate grants Joseph the body of Jesus.

00:08:06.360 --> 00:08:08.240
 And because it was just before the Sabbath,

00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:11.819
 Joseph puts the corpse of Jesus in his tomb,

00:08:12.139 --> 00:08:12.819
 seals it up,

00:08:13.840 --> 00:08:14.939
 and we're on our way.

00:08:16.379 --> 00:08:18.160
 Now you might be thinking, well, that's interesting.

00:08:18.280 --> 00:08:20.120
 Those are little interesting little tidbits.

00:08:21.420 --> 00:08:24.540
 Until you realize that Mark is actually doing something else.

00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:28.000
 Do you remember how in chapter 14 and chapter 15,

00:08:28.100 --> 00:08:30.379
 there's all these allusions to Isaiah 53,

00:08:30.819 --> 00:08:33.480
 and then in chapter 15 to Psalm 22,

00:08:33.580 --> 00:08:35.279
 but Isaiah 53 is all over the place.

00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:40.459
 What we have here is another allusion to Isaiah 53.

00:08:41.659 --> 00:08:42.799
 The suffering servant.

00:08:43.740 --> 00:08:44.459
 Let me just read it.

00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:45.319
 This is verse 9.

00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:49.419
 And they made his grave with the wicked,

00:08:50.419 --> 00:08:53.379
 and with a rich man in his death.

00:08:54.740 --> 00:08:56.539
 You see, what's going on here

00:08:56.539 --> 00:08:58.279
 is not just historic.

00:08:58.399 --> 00:08:59.299
 It actually happened.

00:08:59.299 --> 00:09:02.120
 But Mark is helping us make a connection.

00:09:03.319 --> 00:09:04.979
 This is all according to God's plan.

00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:08.139
 This is the fulfillment of Isaiah 53.

00:09:11.379 --> 00:09:12.839
 It's all according to the Scriptures.

00:09:14.979 --> 00:09:16.419
 There's a time stamp as well.

00:09:16.419 --> 00:09:21.199
 We saw the time stamps last week in Mark 15.

00:09:22.179 --> 00:09:23.819
 The 6th hour and the 9th hour.

00:09:24.219 --> 00:09:26.299
 Here we're told it's a particular day.

00:09:27.419 --> 00:09:28.439
 Do you see that in verse 2?

00:09:28.500 --> 00:09:30.399
 And very early on the first day of the week.

00:09:31.059 --> 00:09:32.259
 That means it's Sunday.

00:09:33.099 --> 00:09:36.120
 Which means it's the third day

00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:38.360
 since Jesus was crucified.

00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:40.559
 He was crucified on day 1, Friday.

00:09:41.019 --> 00:09:42.719
 Then there's the Sabbath, day 2.

00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:45.000
 And then there's Sunday, day 3.

00:09:46.119 --> 00:09:47.000
 It's the third day.

00:09:50.019 --> 00:09:52.359
 This is fulfilling what Jesus himself has said

00:09:52.359 --> 00:09:53.419
 over and over and over.

00:09:54.219 --> 00:09:55.519
 I'm going to be rejected, killed,

00:09:55.819 --> 00:09:57.459
 and on the third day I will rise.

00:09:59.079 --> 00:10:00.239
 There's a time stamp.

00:10:00.619 --> 00:10:01.319
 It's at sunrise.

00:10:01.319 --> 00:10:04.939
 So this is very early on, on that Sunday.

00:10:05.739 --> 00:10:09.000
 These women have, they're not wasting any time.

00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:11.440
 They've got burial spices in hand

00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:14.600
 that they are going to the tomb.

00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:16.360
 And then they remember something.

00:10:18.500 --> 00:10:20.960
 Who's going to move away the stone for us?

00:10:22.179 --> 00:10:24.259
 And evidently the stone was so big

00:10:24.259 --> 00:10:26.940
 that the three of them themselves couldn't move it.

00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:27.960
 That's how big it was.

00:10:29.899 --> 00:10:30.960
 Now you may be wondering,

00:10:31.100 --> 00:10:32.759
 well how can he forget a detail like that?

00:10:32.759 --> 00:10:38.279
 Has anybody planned the funeral

00:10:38.279 --> 00:10:40.819
 of a loved one that recently died?

00:10:42.179 --> 00:10:43.419
 It's hard work.

00:10:47.419 --> 00:10:51.679
 You're in a state of numbness.

00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:52.519
 It's surreal.

00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:55.059
 You've got details that you're trying to take care of.

00:10:55.059 --> 00:10:58.179
 I think you need to realize

00:10:58.179 --> 00:11:02.479
 the mood of this moment

00:11:02.479 --> 00:11:05.000
 as these three women are making their way to the tomb.

00:11:05.439 --> 00:11:06.639
 They're not happy.

00:11:08.719 --> 00:11:10.719
 They're sad.

00:11:10.859 --> 00:11:11.500
 They're somber.

00:11:11.659 --> 00:11:12.319
 They're quiet.

00:11:12.519 --> 00:11:13.119
 They're grieving.

00:11:14.179 --> 00:11:15.399
 They're forgetting details

00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:16.319
 because they're distracted.

00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:22.479
 These women have spent a lot of time

00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.320
 with Jesus over the last three years.

00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:27.779
 And now they've seen him die.

00:11:30.700 --> 00:11:32.120
 They saw where he was buried.

00:11:33.220 --> 00:11:35.360
 And as they're making their way to the tomb,

00:11:35.500 --> 00:11:36.860
 they are expecting to find

00:11:36.860 --> 00:11:38.759
 the corpse of Jesus in that tomb.

00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:42.120
 But as they walk in verse 4

00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:43.399
 up to the tomb,

00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:46.879
 they see that the stone has been rolled away.

00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:51.940
 And their immediate thought is not

00:11:51.940 --> 00:11:53.260
 he's been raised from the dead.

00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:55.300
 If you were them,

00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:56.740
 I'm guessing you'd be like,

00:11:57.080 --> 00:11:58.200
 what's going on?

00:11:58.820 --> 00:12:00.220
 Who got here before us?

00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:02.820
 I'm guessing their heart rate

00:12:02.820 --> 00:12:03.940
 would have started going up.

00:12:05.700 --> 00:12:07.700
 Maybe you came into this building this morning

00:12:07.700 --> 00:12:08.740
 and you've got some questions

00:12:08.740 --> 00:12:10.280
 about the empty tomb.

00:12:12.600 --> 00:12:14.520
 Maybe you've been a Christian for a long time

00:12:14.520 --> 00:12:16.040
 and you've never thought

00:12:16.040 --> 00:12:18.480
 about what the empty tomb

00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:20.320
 actually means for you.

00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:23.560
 Let's go into the tomb.

00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:26.040
 That's where Mark brings us.

00:12:26.160 --> 00:12:26.660
 Scene 2,

00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:28.000
 while in the tomb,

00:12:28.140 --> 00:12:29.220
 verses 5 through 7.

00:12:31.540 --> 00:12:32.520
 And entering the tomb,

00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:33.560
 they saw a young man

00:12:33.560 --> 00:12:34.560
 sitting on the right side

00:12:34.560 --> 00:12:35.760
 dressed in a white robe

00:12:35.760 --> 00:12:36.560
 and they were alarmed.

00:12:36.800 --> 00:12:38.480
 Kids, if you want to draw a picture for me,

00:12:38.820 --> 00:12:39.500
 this is it.

00:12:41.920 --> 00:12:42.900
 And he said to them,

00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:43.940
 do not be alarmed.

00:12:44.060 --> 00:12:45.540
 You seek Jesus of Nazareth

00:12:45.540 --> 00:12:46.580
 who was crucified.

00:12:46.780 --> 00:12:47.320
 He is risen.

00:12:47.420 --> 00:12:48.200
 He's not here.

00:12:48.340 --> 00:12:49.540
 See the place where they laid him.

00:12:49.539 --> 00:12:50.579
 But go,

00:12:50.699 --> 00:12:52.019
 tell his disciples and Peter

00:12:52.019 --> 00:12:55.399
 that he is going before you to Galilee.

00:12:55.819 --> 00:12:56.879
 There you will see him

00:12:56.879 --> 00:12:58.459
 just as he told you.

00:12:59.159 --> 00:12:59.439
 Now,

00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:01.360
 if you're one of these three women,

00:13:02.779 --> 00:13:06.059
 you're expecting to find

00:13:06.059 --> 00:13:07.259
 in this tomb

00:13:07.259 --> 00:13:10.199
 the corpse of Jesus.

00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:13.460
 And so the first surprise

00:13:13.460 --> 00:13:14.560
 of the empty tomb,

00:13:14.680 --> 00:13:16.100
 and there are a number of surprises

00:13:16.100 --> 00:13:17.640
 in the empty tomb.

00:13:18.379 --> 00:13:19.540
 The first surprise

00:13:19.540 --> 00:13:20.720
 is a surprising sight.

00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:21.420
 Verse 5.

00:13:21.860 --> 00:13:23.080
 This young man

00:13:23.080 --> 00:13:24.000
 dressed in white.

00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:26.460
 They don't see the body.

00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:28.060
 They see this young man

00:13:28.060 --> 00:13:29.740
 dressed in white.

00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:30.700
 The other gospels

00:13:30.700 --> 00:13:31.620
 talk about there being

00:13:31.620 --> 00:13:32.540
 two angels,

00:13:33.180 --> 00:13:34.220
 dazzling appearance,

00:13:34.560 --> 00:13:36.520
 and in classic Mark fashion,

00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:38.000
 he gives you bare bones.

00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:38.560
 Yes?

00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:41.580
 This would have been spectacular.

00:13:43.580 --> 00:13:45.320
 This young man is an angel,

00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:46.520
 a messenger from heaven,

00:13:46.920 --> 00:13:48.740
 because God knows

00:13:48.740 --> 00:13:49.720
 that these women

00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:53.100
 will need a heavenly explanation

00:13:53.100 --> 00:13:54.520
 to make sense

00:13:54.520 --> 00:13:56.259
 of the empty tomb.

00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:56.640
 You see,

00:13:56.740 --> 00:13:57.640
 this angel

00:13:57.640 --> 00:13:59.300
 is to give all of us

00:13:59.300 --> 00:14:00.940
 God's perspective

00:14:00.940 --> 00:14:01.840
 and explanation

00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:03.860
 for the empty tomb.

00:14:03.860 --> 00:14:08.180
 Could you imagine

00:14:08.180 --> 00:14:08.740
 if these women

00:14:08.740 --> 00:14:09.700
 had heart rate monitors

00:14:09.700 --> 00:14:10.080
 on them?

00:14:13.340 --> 00:14:14.399
 The three of them

00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:14.919
 have a different

00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:15.779
 heart rate monitor

00:14:15.779 --> 00:14:16.120
 on them.

00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:17.379
 As they're approaching

00:14:17.379 --> 00:14:17.940
 the tomb,

00:14:18.060 --> 00:14:19.399
 they see this stone

00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:19.980
 rolled away.

00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:20.620
 I'm guessing,

00:14:21.060 --> 00:14:22.000
 amidst their grief,

00:14:22.139 --> 00:14:22.779
 they're starting now

00:14:22.779 --> 00:14:23.580
 to get concerned,

00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:24.440
 and so their heart rate

00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:25.300
 starts going up.

00:14:25.580 --> 00:14:26.399
 But when they walk

00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:27.060
 into the tomb,

00:14:27.139 --> 00:14:27.879
 they come underneath

00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:28.460
 the entrance

00:14:28.460 --> 00:14:29.659
 into the opening,

00:14:30.139 --> 00:14:31.000
 and they see

00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:32.159
 a young man

00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:33.019
 dressed in white,

00:14:33.019 --> 00:14:33.960
 sitting to the right

00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:35.939
 of this burial platform.

00:14:36.059 --> 00:14:36.860
 No body.

00:14:38.480 --> 00:14:39.220
 I'm guessing,

00:14:39.299 --> 00:14:40.340
 if we were reading it

00:14:40.340 --> 00:14:41.500
 on a digital display,

00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:42.799
 their heart rates

00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:43.240
 would have gone

00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:44.000
 through the roof.

00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:46.360
 What's going on?

00:14:47.360 --> 00:14:48.620
 They're obviously alarmed,

00:14:49.279 --> 00:14:50.539
 as you and I would be.

00:14:52.659 --> 00:14:54.039
 This is a heavenly visitor

00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:55.179
 with them

00:14:55.179 --> 00:14:56.659
 in a confined space

00:14:56.659 --> 00:14:58.559
 of this tomb

00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:00.600
 where Jesus had been laid,

00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:03.500
 but His body's not there.

00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:04.820
 Surprise two.

00:15:07.379 --> 00:15:08.820
 This angel

00:15:08.820 --> 00:15:09.940
 has a surprise

00:15:09.940 --> 00:15:10.960
 explanation.

00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:14.360
 He's going to explain

00:15:14.360 --> 00:15:14.620
 to them

00:15:14.620 --> 00:15:15.879
 what has happened.

00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:17.940
 He starts by saying,

00:15:18.060 --> 00:15:19.200
 do not be alarmed

00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:20.860
 because He

00:15:20.860 --> 00:15:22.779
 has Heaven's

00:15:22.779 --> 00:15:23.600
 point of view.

00:15:25.540 --> 00:15:26.000
 He

00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:28.100
 knows that this is

00:15:28.100 --> 00:15:29.279
 all according to plan.

00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:31.159
 He knows

00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:32.240
 something that

00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:33.500
 these three women

00:15:33.500 --> 00:15:34.899
 haven't yet

00:15:34.899 --> 00:15:36.379
 fully realized,

00:15:36.860 --> 00:15:37.980
 and that Jesus

00:15:37.980 --> 00:15:38.679
 has been true

00:15:38.679 --> 00:15:39.480
 to His Word.

00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:43.600
 He says to them,

00:15:44.059 --> 00:15:44.500
 you seek

00:15:44.500 --> 00:15:45.779
 Jesus of Nazareth.

00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:47.699
 They're all talking

00:15:47.699 --> 00:15:48.579
 about the same person.

00:15:51.019 --> 00:15:52.220
 This Jesus

00:15:52.220 --> 00:15:53.720
 of Nazareth

00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:55.699
 who was crucified.

00:15:55.700 --> 00:15:55.759
 crucified.

00:15:56.940 --> 00:15:57.840
 This angel

00:15:57.840 --> 00:16:00.220
 knows that

00:16:00.220 --> 00:16:00.720
 these women

00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:01.520
 just witnessed

00:16:01.520 --> 00:16:02.540
 three days earlier

00:16:02.540 --> 00:16:03.220
 the death

00:16:03.220 --> 00:16:03.840
 of Jesus.

00:16:06.220 --> 00:16:07.280
 And I'm guessing

00:16:07.280 --> 00:16:08.780
 all Heaven

00:16:08.780 --> 00:16:10.600
 had witnessed

00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:11.640
 the death

00:16:11.640 --> 00:16:12.379
 of Jesus.

00:16:13.180 --> 00:16:13.900
 Which makes

00:16:13.900 --> 00:16:14.940
 one wonder,

00:16:16.220 --> 00:16:17.220
 how do you think

00:16:17.220 --> 00:16:17.700
 Heaven responded

00:16:18.460 --> 00:16:20.420
 when Jesus

00:16:20.420 --> 00:16:20.700
 breathed

00:16:21.520 --> 00:16:22.360
 His last

00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:23.080
 and the curtain

00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:24.140
 was torn in two

00:16:24.139 --> 00:16:25.699
 and the centurion

00:16:25.699 --> 00:16:26.419
 confessed,

00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:27.980
 truly this man

00:16:27.980 --> 00:16:29.620
 was the Son of God.

00:16:29.659 --> 00:16:29.980
 Do you think

00:16:29.980 --> 00:16:30.460
 that there was

00:16:30.460 --> 00:16:31.059
 just like

00:16:31.059 --> 00:16:32.980
 this heavenly

00:16:32.980 --> 00:16:34.100
 thunderous ovation?

00:16:34.379 --> 00:16:35.360
 Or do you think

00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:36.840
 there was just

00:16:36.840 --> 00:16:38.399
 such silence

00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:40.439
 around the throne

00:16:40.439 --> 00:16:41.779
 that this

00:16:41.779 --> 00:16:43.159
 is what God

00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:43.960
 has done

00:16:43.960 --> 00:16:45.580
 to save

00:16:45.580 --> 00:16:46.139
 sinners?

00:16:49.819 --> 00:16:50.720
 This angel

00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:52.960
 knows

00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:54.360
 that He

00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:54.960
 was crucified.

00:16:57.519 --> 00:16:58.120
 And then

00:16:58.120 --> 00:16:58.540
 He speaks

00:16:58.540 --> 00:16:59.019
 those three

00:16:59.019 --> 00:16:59.480
 words that

00:16:59.480 --> 00:17:00.180
 change everything.

00:17:03.420 --> 00:17:04.039
 He has

00:17:04.039 --> 00:17:04.360
 risen.

00:17:06.299 --> 00:17:06.880
 In the

00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:07.039
 Greek

00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:07.400
 it's just

00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:08.180
 one verb.

00:17:09.500 --> 00:17:09.980
 To roughly

00:17:09.980 --> 00:17:10.759
 translate it

00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:11.299
 into English

00:17:11.299 --> 00:17:12.019
 you could say

00:17:12.019 --> 00:17:13.120
 He has

00:17:13.120 --> 00:17:13.839
 been risen.

00:17:15.600 --> 00:17:16.339
 The angel

00:17:16.339 --> 00:17:16.819
 is saying

00:17:16.819 --> 00:17:17.460
 Jesus didn't

00:17:17.460 --> 00:17:18.640
 raise Himself

00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:20.120
 He was raised

00:17:20.120 --> 00:17:20.660
 by God

00:17:20.660 --> 00:17:21.120
 the Father.

00:17:21.280 --> 00:17:22.360
 The divine

00:17:22.360 --> 00:17:23.380
 Son of God

00:17:23.380 --> 00:17:24.140
 who

00:17:24.140 --> 00:17:26.440
 bore the wrath

00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:26.940
 of God

00:17:26.940 --> 00:17:27.560
 the Father

00:17:27.560 --> 00:17:28.500
 on Friday

00:17:28.500 --> 00:17:30.480
 has now

00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:31.720
 been raised

00:17:31.720 --> 00:17:32.800
 by the same

00:17:32.800 --> 00:17:33.560
 God the Father

00:17:33.560 --> 00:17:35.020
 on Sunday

00:17:35.020 --> 00:17:35.380
 morning.

00:17:37.120 --> 00:17:37.660
 This is

00:17:37.660 --> 00:17:38.940
 all according

00:17:38.940 --> 00:17:39.580
 to God's plan.

00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:39.960
 This is

00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:40.680
 according to

00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:41.240
 the Scriptures.

00:17:44.580 --> 00:17:45.060
 This is

00:17:45.060 --> 00:17:47.180
 actually

00:17:47.180 --> 00:17:48.460
 surprising

00:17:48.460 --> 00:17:49.920
 good news.

00:17:52.140 --> 00:17:52.799
 These three

00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:53.440
 words the

00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:53.900
 angel

00:17:53.900 --> 00:17:55.480
 is speaking

00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:56.560
 I'm guessing

00:17:56.560 --> 00:17:57.019
 if you're one

00:17:57.019 --> 00:17:57.240
 of these

00:17:57.240 --> 00:17:57.759
 three ladies

00:17:57.759 --> 00:17:58.039
 with your

00:17:58.039 --> 00:17:58.460
 heart rate

00:17:58.460 --> 00:17:58.840
 kind of

00:17:58.840 --> 00:17:59.500
 heart in

00:17:59.500 --> 00:17:59.920
 your chest

00:17:59.920 --> 00:18:00.220
 you're kind

00:18:00.220 --> 00:18:00.420
 of like

00:18:00.420 --> 00:18:00.799
 what?

00:18:03.560 --> 00:18:04.120
 I'm not

00:18:04.120 --> 00:18:04.420
 sure if they

00:18:04.420 --> 00:18:05.340
 totally understood

00:18:05.340 --> 00:18:05.920
 what's being

00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:06.500
 said here.

00:18:10.460 --> 00:18:11.140
 Maybe you've

00:18:11.140 --> 00:18:11.580
 never thought

00:18:11.580 --> 00:18:12.299
 about the

00:18:12.299 --> 00:18:12.920
 implications

00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:13.820
 of those

00:18:13.820 --> 00:18:14.440
 three words.

00:18:15.940 --> 00:18:16.519
 He has

00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:16.799
 risen.

00:18:17.180 --> 00:18:19.120
 He's

00:18:19.120 --> 00:18:19.840
 alive today.

00:18:23.420 --> 00:18:24.120
 The angel

00:18:24.120 --> 00:18:24.560
 goes on to

00:18:24.560 --> 00:18:25.000
 say he's

00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:25.820
 not here

00:18:25.820 --> 00:18:27.080
 and sitting

00:18:27.080 --> 00:18:27.720
 to the right

00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:28.259
 of this

00:18:28.259 --> 00:18:29.080
 burial platform

00:18:29.080 --> 00:18:29.620
 he kind of

00:18:29.620 --> 00:18:30.340
 gestures and

00:18:30.340 --> 00:18:31.440
 say see the

00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:31.799
 place where

00:18:31.799 --> 00:18:32.080
 they laid

00:18:32.080 --> 00:18:32.279
 him?

00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:34.240
 Nothing.

00:18:35.240 --> 00:18:36.039
 No body.

00:18:36.220 --> 00:18:36.799
 No corpse.

00:18:37.060 --> 00:18:37.580
 No Jesus.

00:18:39.140 --> 00:18:39.600
 Empty.

00:18:40.660 --> 00:18:41.060
 It's an

00:18:41.060 --> 00:18:41.640
 empty tomb.

00:18:42.980 --> 00:18:43.360
 Here we

00:18:43.360 --> 00:18:44.600
 have an

00:18:44.600 --> 00:18:45.100
 angel

00:18:45.099 --> 00:18:45.799
 explaining

00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:47.379
 the empty

00:18:47.379 --> 00:18:47.859
 tomb.

00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:48.519
 Surprise!

00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:49.659
 He has

00:18:49.659 --> 00:18:50.119
 risen.

00:18:52.919 --> 00:18:53.699
 This is a

00:18:53.699 --> 00:18:54.159
 God-sized

00:18:54.159 --> 00:18:54.679
 miracle

00:18:54.679 --> 00:18:56.079
 for the

00:18:56.079 --> 00:18:56.659
 God-sized

00:18:56.659 --> 00:18:57.240
 work of

00:18:57.240 --> 00:18:57.759
 saving

00:18:57.759 --> 00:18:58.199
 sinners.

00:18:59.639 --> 00:19:00.359
 It's at the

00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:00.719
 heart of the

00:19:00.719 --> 00:19:01.099
 gospel.

00:19:01.679 --> 00:19:02.059
 It's all

00:19:02.059 --> 00:19:02.659
 accordance to

00:19:02.659 --> 00:19:03.119
 the scriptures.

00:19:05.459 --> 00:19:06.079
 And you

00:19:06.079 --> 00:19:06.439
 know what?

00:19:07.919 --> 00:19:08.679
 It either

00:19:08.679 --> 00:19:09.299
 happened or

00:19:09.299 --> 00:19:09.719
 it didn't.

00:19:11.219 --> 00:19:11.759
 He was

00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:12.359
 either raised

00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:12.740
 from the

00:19:12.740 --> 00:19:13.240
 dead or he

00:19:13.240 --> 00:19:13.619
 wasn't.

00:19:13.619 --> 00:19:15.359
 He's

00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:16.059
 either alive

00:19:16.059 --> 00:19:16.699
 today or

00:19:16.699 --> 00:19:17.000
 he's been

00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:17.759
 long dead.

00:19:20.159 --> 00:19:20.959
 So this is

00:19:20.959 --> 00:19:21.959
 an angelic

00:19:21.959 --> 00:19:22.759
 heavenly

00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:24.019
 explanation for

00:19:24.019 --> 00:19:25.359
 the empty

00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:26.000
 tomb.

00:19:27.879 --> 00:19:28.539
 But there's

00:19:28.539 --> 00:19:29.259
 more surprises

00:19:29.259 --> 00:19:29.799
 coming from

00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:30.139
 the empty

00:19:30.139 --> 00:19:30.379
 tomb.

00:19:33.479 --> 00:19:34.159
 In verse

00:19:34.159 --> 00:19:35.119
 6, this

00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:36.179
 angel explains

00:19:36.179 --> 00:19:37.339
 why the

00:19:37.339 --> 00:19:37.879
 body's not

00:19:37.879 --> 00:19:38.159
 there.

00:19:38.839 --> 00:19:39.099
 He is

00:19:39.099 --> 00:19:39.359
 risen.

00:19:39.500 --> 00:19:39.839
 In verse

00:19:39.839 --> 00:19:40.799
 7, he

00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:41.219
 goes into

00:19:41.219 --> 00:19:41.959
 some surprise

00:19:41.959 --> 00:19:42.500
 instruction.

00:19:42.819 --> 00:19:43.019
 Look at

00:19:43.019 --> 00:19:43.500
 verse 7.

00:19:44.439 --> 00:19:45.059
 But go

00:19:45.059 --> 00:19:46.099
 tell his

00:19:46.099 --> 00:19:47.159
 disciples and

00:19:47.159 --> 00:19:47.899
 Peter that

00:19:47.899 --> 00:19:48.439
 he is going

00:19:48.439 --> 00:19:49.059
 before you to

00:19:49.059 --> 00:19:49.500
 Galilee.

00:19:49.659 --> 00:19:49.959
 There you

00:19:49.959 --> 00:19:50.339
 will see

00:19:50.339 --> 00:19:51.239
 him just

00:19:51.239 --> 00:19:51.519
 as he

00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:52.019
 told you.

00:19:53.099 --> 00:19:53.739
 Well, that's

00:19:53.739 --> 00:19:54.479
 rather surprising.

00:19:55.239 --> 00:19:55.579
 He has

00:19:55.579 --> 00:19:55.899
 risen.

00:19:56.799 --> 00:19:57.199
 Go tell.

00:20:01.039 --> 00:20:01.559
 What's

00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:02.079
 historically

00:20:02.079 --> 00:20:03.000
 interesting about

00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:03.759
 this and

00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:04.699
 striking is

00:20:04.699 --> 00:20:05.899
 that the

00:20:05.899 --> 00:20:06.899
 first witnesses

00:20:06.899 --> 00:20:07.419
 to the

00:20:07.419 --> 00:20:08.119
 empty tomb,

00:20:08.259 --> 00:20:08.619
 the first

00:20:08.619 --> 00:20:09.399
 people to

00:20:09.399 --> 00:20:10.359
 bear testimony,

00:20:10.679 --> 00:20:11.019
 the first

00:20:11.019 --> 00:20:11.679
 humans to

00:20:11.679 --> 00:20:12.299
 bear testimony

00:20:12.299 --> 00:20:13.220
 that Jesus

00:20:13.220 --> 00:20:13.700
 has risen

00:20:13.700 --> 00:20:14.059
 from the

00:20:14.059 --> 00:20:15.240
 dead are

00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:15.779
 these women.

00:20:16.779 --> 00:20:17.399
 It was

00:20:17.399 --> 00:20:18.079
 historically

00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:19.279
 remarkable

00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:21.019
 because back

00:20:21.019 --> 00:20:21.599
 in that

00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:22.659
 time, their

00:20:22.659 --> 00:20:23.579
 testimony would

00:20:23.579 --> 00:20:24.099
 not have been

00:20:24.099 --> 00:20:25.819
 considered having

00:20:25.819 --> 00:20:26.440
 much weight.

00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:31.380
 this is

00:20:31.380 --> 00:20:32.039
 extraordinary.

00:20:34.539 --> 00:20:36.160
 Now, it

00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:36.519
 even gets

00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:36.799
 more

00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:37.299
 extraordinary.

00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:42.360
 This

00:20:42.360 --> 00:20:42.920
 angel says,

00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:44.220
 but go tell

00:20:44.220 --> 00:20:45.160
 his disciples

00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:46.800
 and Peter.

00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:49.720
 Now, I

00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:49.940
 don't know

00:20:49.940 --> 00:20:50.500
 about you,

00:20:51.380 --> 00:20:51.960
 but if I

00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:52.380
 were Jesus

00:20:52.380 --> 00:20:53.380
 and had been

00:20:53.380 --> 00:20:54.360
 abandoned by

00:20:54.360 --> 00:20:55.380
 all my dudes,

00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:56.759
 I'd be like,

00:20:56.880 --> 00:20:57.620
 you're fired.

00:20:59.100 --> 00:20:59.720
 Done.

00:21:00.100 --> 00:21:00.800
 I'll go find

00:21:00.800 --> 00:21:01.120
 some other

00:21:01.120 --> 00:21:01.820
 Gentile folks

00:21:01.820 --> 00:21:02.420
 to do this.

00:21:02.420 --> 00:21:05.700
 but that's

00:21:05.700 --> 00:21:06.060
 not what's

00:21:06.060 --> 00:21:06.460
 going on

00:21:06.460 --> 00:21:06.600
 here.

00:21:06.700 --> 00:21:06.840
 This

00:21:06.840 --> 00:21:07.440
 angel seems

00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:07.779
 to think

00:21:07.779 --> 00:21:08.080
 that the

00:21:08.080 --> 00:21:08.320
 risen

00:21:08.320 --> 00:21:08.940
 Jesus

00:21:08.940 --> 00:21:10.539
 hasn't

00:21:10.539 --> 00:21:11.200
 disowned

00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:11.500
 his

00:21:11.500 --> 00:21:12.100
 disciples,

00:21:12.500 --> 00:21:13.340
 but still

00:21:13.340 --> 00:21:14.519
 claims them

00:21:14.519 --> 00:21:15.920
 as his

00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:16.480
 own.

00:21:17.080 --> 00:21:17.240
 Do you

00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:17.700
 remember back

00:21:17.700 --> 00:21:18.100
 in chapter

00:21:18.100 --> 00:21:18.720
 14,

00:21:19.080 --> 00:21:19.600
 what Jesus

00:21:19.600 --> 00:21:20.060
 said to

00:21:20.060 --> 00:21:20.300
 them?

00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:22.000
 1427,

00:21:22.300 --> 00:21:22.580
 and Jesus

00:21:22.580 --> 00:21:23.039
 said to

00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:23.279
 them,

00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:23.800
 while on

00:21:23.800 --> 00:21:24.120
 the Mount

00:21:24.120 --> 00:21:24.580
 of Olives

00:21:24.580 --> 00:21:25.160
 that just

00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:25.860
 had the

00:21:25.860 --> 00:21:26.500
 last supper

00:21:26.500 --> 00:21:27.300
 before

00:21:27.300 --> 00:21:28.080
 Gethsemane,

00:21:28.259 --> 00:21:28.980
 you will

00:21:28.980 --> 00:21:29.620
 all fall

00:21:29.620 --> 00:21:30.420
 away for

00:21:30.420 --> 00:21:30.940
 it is

00:21:30.940 --> 00:21:31.400
 written,

00:21:31.400 --> 00:21:31.980
 I will

00:21:31.980 --> 00:21:32.620
 strike the

00:21:32.620 --> 00:21:32.980
 shepherd,

00:21:33.820 --> 00:21:34.440
 and the

00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:34.720
 sheep will

00:21:34.720 --> 00:21:35.280
 be scattered,

00:21:35.600 --> 00:21:36.080
 Zechariah

00:21:36.080 --> 00:21:36.380
 13.

00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:36.780
 7.

00:21:37.220 --> 00:21:37.680
 And it

00:21:37.680 --> 00:21:38.160
 happened.

00:21:41.280 --> 00:21:42.040
 They had

00:21:42.040 --> 00:21:42.720
 all abandoned

00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:43.060
 him.

00:21:45.019 --> 00:21:45.620
 Despite

00:21:45.620 --> 00:21:45.880
 their

00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:46.560
 failures,

00:21:48.680 --> 00:21:49.820
 Jesus

00:21:49.820 --> 00:21:50.480
 still claims

00:21:50.480 --> 00:21:50.780
 them as

00:21:50.780 --> 00:21:52.259
 his own.

00:21:54.200 --> 00:21:54.920
 Did you

00:21:54.920 --> 00:21:55.860
 notice the

00:21:55.860 --> 00:21:56.759
 angel singles

00:21:56.759 --> 00:21:57.500
 out Peter?

00:21:59.580 --> 00:21:59.940
 But go

00:21:59.940 --> 00:22:00.480
 tell his

00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:01.220
 disciples and

00:22:01.220 --> 00:22:01.460
 Peter.

00:22:01.819 --> 00:22:02.880
 Maybe it's

00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:03.420
 better understood

00:22:03.420 --> 00:22:03.779
 if it went

00:22:03.779 --> 00:22:04.180
 something like

00:22:04.180 --> 00:22:04.299
 that.

00:22:04.620 --> 00:22:05.460
 But go

00:22:05.460 --> 00:22:06.180
 tell his

00:22:06.180 --> 00:22:06.740
 disciples,

00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:08.319
 especially

00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:08.779
 Peter.

00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:12.180
 Remember

00:22:12.180 --> 00:22:12.500
 where we

00:22:12.500 --> 00:22:12.980
 left Peter

00:22:12.980 --> 00:22:13.600
 at the end

00:22:13.600 --> 00:22:13.880
 of Mark

00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:14.259
 14.

00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:14.640
 Let me

00:22:14.640 --> 00:22:15.019
 just point

00:22:15.019 --> 00:22:15.339
 you there.

00:22:16.180 --> 00:22:16.420
 Mark

00:22:16.420 --> 00:22:17.000
 14,

00:22:17.079 --> 00:22:17.240
 verse

00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:17.720
 72.

00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:19.860
 The

00:22:19.860 --> 00:22:20.100
 verse

00:22:20.100 --> 00:22:20.680
 before

00:22:20.680 --> 00:22:21.579
 Peter,

00:22:22.360 --> 00:22:22.720
 third

00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:23.200
 denial,

00:22:23.779 --> 00:22:24.339
 he makes

00:22:24.339 --> 00:22:25.180
 it big.

00:22:26.059 --> 00:22:27.100
 He calls

00:22:27.100 --> 00:22:27.480
 down a

00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:27.880
 curse on

00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:28.360
 himself,

00:22:28.359 --> 00:22:29.219
 and he

00:22:29.219 --> 00:22:30.240
 swears,

00:22:30.719 --> 00:22:31.419
 I do

00:22:31.419 --> 00:22:32.259
 not know

00:22:32.259 --> 00:22:33.000
 this man

00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:33.399
 of whom

00:22:33.399 --> 00:22:34.139
 you speak.

00:22:35.099 --> 00:22:35.899
 Cock-a-doodle-doo.

00:22:36.240 --> 00:22:36.359
 Do you

00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:36.559
 remember?

00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:36.959
 Do you

00:22:36.959 --> 00:22:37.699
 remember?

00:22:41.699 --> 00:22:42.019
 Peter

00:22:42.019 --> 00:22:43.039
 breaks down

00:22:43.039 --> 00:22:43.839
 and weeps

00:22:43.839 --> 00:22:44.500
 because

00:22:44.500 --> 00:22:45.199
 Jesus'

00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:46.059
 words to

00:22:46.059 --> 00:22:46.639
 him in

00:22:46.639 --> 00:22:47.979
 30 have

00:22:47.979 --> 00:22:48.479
 come to

00:22:48.479 --> 00:22:49.000
 pass.

00:22:49.179 --> 00:22:49.759
 He has

00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:50.240
 denied

00:22:50.240 --> 00:22:51.279
 Jesus three

00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:51.919
 times

00:22:51.919 --> 00:22:53.559
 before the

00:22:53.559 --> 00:22:54.399
 cock crowed

00:22:54.399 --> 00:22:55.019
 twice.

00:22:55.019 --> 00:22:56.400
 he's

00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:56.559
 been

00:22:56.559 --> 00:22:57.279
 exposed

00:22:57.279 --> 00:22:58.900
 as the

00:22:58.900 --> 00:22:59.339
 complete

00:22:59.339 --> 00:22:59.879
 and utter

00:22:59.879 --> 00:23:00.519
 failure

00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:01.160
 that he

00:23:01.160 --> 00:23:01.720
 is.

00:23:03.180 --> 00:23:03.799
 So he

00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:04.400
 breaks down

00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:05.019
 and weeps.

00:23:09.019 --> 00:23:09.839
 In the

00:23:09.839 --> 00:23:10.599
 empty tomb,

00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:11.559
 this angel

00:23:11.559 --> 00:23:12.339
 speaks

00:23:12.339 --> 00:23:13.619
 words

00:23:13.619 --> 00:23:14.700
 that are

00:23:14.700 --> 00:23:15.339
 full

00:23:15.339 --> 00:23:16.559
 of

00:23:16.559 --> 00:23:17.119
 grace.

00:23:19.940 --> 00:23:20.740
 Forgiveness.

00:23:22.359 --> 00:23:23.039
 Restoration.

00:23:23.039 --> 00:23:25.480
 Regathering.

00:23:26.940 --> 00:23:27.599
 They would

00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:28.119
 all see

00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:28.579
 him again

00:23:28.579 --> 00:23:29.099
 in Galilee,

00:23:29.180 --> 00:23:29.539
 including

00:23:29.539 --> 00:23:30.099
 these women.

00:23:31.759 --> 00:23:32.440
 They would

00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:33.200
 all be

00:23:33.200 --> 00:23:33.759
 with him

00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:34.579
 and he

00:23:34.579 --> 00:23:35.299
 would forgive

00:23:35.299 --> 00:23:35.759
 them and

00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:36.519
 restore them

00:23:36.519 --> 00:23:37.279
 and regather

00:23:37.279 --> 00:23:37.659
 them,

00:23:38.000 --> 00:23:38.339
 even

00:23:38.339 --> 00:23:39.099
 recommission

00:23:39.099 --> 00:23:39.539
 them to

00:23:39.539 --> 00:23:39.980
 go to the

00:23:39.980 --> 00:23:40.480
 nations,

00:23:41.059 --> 00:23:41.559
 proclaiming

00:23:41.559 --> 00:23:41.899
 that he

00:23:41.899 --> 00:23:42.359
 is a

00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:42.879
 crucified

00:23:42.879 --> 00:23:44.159
 and risen

00:23:44.159 --> 00:23:45.299
 king.

00:23:49.559 --> 00:23:50.139
 I just

00:23:50.139 --> 00:23:50.399
 want to

00:23:50.399 --> 00:23:50.879
 pause here

00:23:50.879 --> 00:23:51.180
 for a

00:23:51.180 --> 00:23:51.379
 second.

00:23:53.039 --> 00:23:55.539
 This is

00:23:55.539 --> 00:23:56.019
 surprising.

00:23:57.019 --> 00:23:57.759
 In the

00:23:57.759 --> 00:23:58.099
 tomb,

00:23:58.819 --> 00:23:59.420
 this angel

00:23:59.420 --> 00:24:00.099
 speaks

00:24:00.099 --> 00:24:02.619
 words full

00:24:02.619 --> 00:24:03.180
 of grace.

00:24:05.019 --> 00:24:05.579
 Anyone

00:24:05.579 --> 00:24:05.920
 in the

00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:06.159
 room

00:24:06.159 --> 00:24:06.639
 come into

00:24:06.639 --> 00:24:07.039
 this

00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:08.619
 place

00:24:08.619 --> 00:24:08.940
 this

00:24:08.940 --> 00:24:09.399
 morning

00:24:09.399 --> 00:24:09.879
 thinking

00:24:09.879 --> 00:24:10.399
 that you

00:24:10.399 --> 00:24:10.579
 are

00:24:10.579 --> 00:24:11.079
 somehow

00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:12.859
 unworthy,

00:24:13.740 --> 00:24:14.500
 that you've

00:24:14.500 --> 00:24:15.000
 done something

00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:16.099
 so awful,

00:24:16.460 --> 00:24:17.579
 so terrible,

00:24:18.180 --> 00:24:18.879
 that it

00:24:18.879 --> 00:24:20.299
 is beyond

00:24:20.299 --> 00:24:21.579
 God's

00:24:21.579 --> 00:24:22.220
 grace,

00:24:22.220 --> 00:24:22.779
 that you've

00:24:22.779 --> 00:24:23.000
 been

00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:24.339
 permanently

00:24:24.339 --> 00:24:25.519
 disqualified

00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:26.539
 from following

00:24:26.539 --> 00:24:27.000
 Jesus,

00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:27.839
 that somehow

00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:29.000
 because of

00:24:29.000 --> 00:24:29.460
 something you've

00:24:29.460 --> 00:24:29.759
 done,

00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:31.339
 you bear the

00:24:31.339 --> 00:24:32.339
 black mark

00:24:32.339 --> 00:24:32.860
 in Jesus'

00:24:33.079 --> 00:24:33.440
 eyes,

00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:34.120
 and now you

00:24:34.120 --> 00:24:34.660
 are at

00:24:34.660 --> 00:24:36.279
 best second

00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:38.000
 class in

00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:38.440
 the family

00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:38.940
 of God.

00:24:40.220 --> 00:24:40.740
 Anybody

00:24:40.740 --> 00:24:41.140
 come in

00:24:41.140 --> 00:24:41.500
 like that?

00:24:44.380 --> 00:24:44.920
 That you

00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:45.319
 don't measure

00:24:45.319 --> 00:24:45.640
 up?

00:24:45.640 --> 00:24:49.200
 why would

00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:49.780
 Jesus want

00:24:49.780 --> 00:24:50.680
 to bother

00:24:50.680 --> 00:24:51.160
 with me?

00:24:52.300 --> 00:24:52.940
 I'm a

00:24:52.940 --> 00:24:53.259
 mess.

00:24:57.259 --> 00:24:57.780
 I've

00:24:57.780 --> 00:24:57.960
 sinned

00:24:57.960 --> 00:24:58.360
 too much.

00:25:01.259 --> 00:25:01.940
 From the

00:25:01.940 --> 00:25:02.700
 bloody cross

00:25:02.700 --> 00:25:03.100
 and the

00:25:03.100 --> 00:25:03.440
 empty

00:25:03.440 --> 00:25:04.040
 tomb

00:25:04.040 --> 00:25:05.320
 issues

00:25:05.320 --> 00:25:05.980
 forth

00:25:05.980 --> 00:25:06.720
 some

00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:07.240
 really good

00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:07.660
 news for

00:25:07.660 --> 00:25:07.900
 you.

00:25:10.520 --> 00:25:11.020
 God's

00:25:11.020 --> 00:25:11.500
 grace

00:25:11.500 --> 00:25:13.320
 is greater

00:25:13.320 --> 00:25:13.920
 than your

00:25:13.920 --> 00:25:14.500
 failure.

00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:16.940
 God's

00:25:16.940 --> 00:25:17.420
 grace is

00:25:17.420 --> 00:25:17.920
 greater than

00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:18.060
 your

00:25:18.060 --> 00:25:18.360
 failure.

00:25:18.540 --> 00:25:18.900
 It's a

00:25:18.900 --> 00:25:19.500
 surprise

00:25:19.500 --> 00:25:19.920
 in the

00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:20.480
 surprise.

00:25:22.040 --> 00:25:22.720
 From the

00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:23.660
 empty tomb,

00:25:24.300 --> 00:25:24.759
 this angel

00:25:24.759 --> 00:25:25.660
 speaks words

00:25:25.660 --> 00:25:26.540
 full of

00:25:26.540 --> 00:25:27.100
 grace.

00:25:28.100 --> 00:25:28.920
 If he can

00:25:28.920 --> 00:25:29.660
 restore Peter,

00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:30.240
 he certainly

00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:30.800
 can restore

00:25:30.800 --> 00:25:31.220
 me.

00:25:31.360 --> 00:25:31.560
 He can

00:25:31.560 --> 00:25:32.259
 certainly

00:25:32.259 --> 00:25:33.259
 restore you.

00:25:35.200 --> 00:25:35.540
 God's

00:25:35.540 --> 00:25:36.000
 grace

00:25:36.000 --> 00:25:38.400
 is greater

00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:38.800
 than your

00:25:38.800 --> 00:25:39.100
 failure.

00:25:41.700 --> 00:25:42.220
 That's

00:25:42.220 --> 00:25:42.400
 nothing.

00:25:42.980 --> 00:25:43.259
 There's

00:25:43.259 --> 00:25:43.600
 more.

00:25:44.300 --> 00:25:44.480
 You want

00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:44.660
 to see

00:25:44.660 --> 00:25:44.880
 another

00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:45.360
 surprise?

00:25:45.640 --> 00:25:49.880
 this angel

00:25:49.880 --> 00:25:50.380
 says,

00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:51.580
 there you

00:25:51.580 --> 00:25:51.960
 will see

00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:52.460
 him just

00:25:52.460 --> 00:25:52.759
 as he

00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:53.259
 told you.

00:25:54.060 --> 00:25:54.480
 Just as

00:25:54.480 --> 00:25:54.860
 he told

00:25:54.860 --> 00:25:55.080
 you.

00:25:57.100 --> 00:25:57.480
 Wait,

00:25:57.960 --> 00:25:58.220
 Mr.

00:25:58.280 --> 00:25:58.560
 Angel,

00:25:58.660 --> 00:25:58.960
 are you

00:25:58.960 --> 00:25:59.560
 saying that

00:25:59.560 --> 00:26:00.920
 Jesus told

00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:01.660
 his disciples

00:26:01.660 --> 00:26:03.180
 that he

00:26:03.180 --> 00:26:04.660
 would see

00:26:04.660 --> 00:26:05.080
 them in

00:26:05.080 --> 00:26:05.900
 Galilee after

00:26:05.900 --> 00:26:06.220
 he's been

00:26:06.220 --> 00:26:06.660
 raised up?

00:26:08.100 --> 00:26:08.600
 That's

00:26:08.600 --> 00:26:09.120
 exactly what

00:26:09.120 --> 00:26:09.440
 he's saying.

00:26:10.780 --> 00:26:11.259
 Turn back

00:26:11.259 --> 00:26:12.320
 to Mark

00:26:12.320 --> 00:26:13.640
 chapter 14

00:26:13.640 --> 00:26:14.500
 verse 27,

00:26:14.500 --> 00:26:15.759
 and Jesus

00:26:15.759 --> 00:26:16.140
 said to

00:26:16.140 --> 00:26:16.279
 them,

00:26:16.339 --> 00:26:16.599
 you will

00:26:16.599 --> 00:26:17.200
 all fall

00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:17.660
 away for

00:26:17.660 --> 00:26:17.880
 it is

00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:18.059
 written,

00:26:18.180 --> 00:26:18.359
 I will

00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:18.940
 strike the

00:26:18.940 --> 00:26:19.660
 shepherd and

00:26:19.660 --> 00:26:20.400
 the sheep

00:26:20.400 --> 00:26:20.660
 will be

00:26:20.660 --> 00:26:20.940
 scattered.

00:26:21.019 --> 00:26:21.259
 Look at

00:26:21.259 --> 00:26:21.839
 verse 28.

00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:22.480
 This is

00:26:22.480 --> 00:26:22.720
 Jesus

00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:23.119
 speaking.

00:26:24.500 --> 00:26:25.059
 But after

00:26:25.059 --> 00:26:25.660
 I am

00:26:25.660 --> 00:26:26.339
 raised up,

00:26:26.380 --> 00:26:26.720
 I will

00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:27.240
 go before

00:26:27.240 --> 00:26:28.900
 you to

00:26:28.900 --> 00:26:29.380
 Galilee.

00:26:31.779 --> 00:26:32.279
 Do you

00:26:32.279 --> 00:26:32.420
 know what

00:26:32.420 --> 00:26:32.759
 this means?

00:26:34.960 --> 00:26:35.400
 Jesus

00:26:35.400 --> 00:26:37.720
 knew all

00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:38.000
 of his

00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:39.000
 disciples would

00:26:39.000 --> 00:26:39.599
 abandon him.

00:26:39.599 --> 00:26:42.039
 and he

00:26:42.039 --> 00:26:43.339
 factored it

00:26:43.339 --> 00:26:43.599
 in.

00:26:45.879 --> 00:26:46.799
 His plan

00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:47.859
 all along

00:26:47.859 --> 00:26:50.240
 factored in

00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:51.059
 their failure

00:26:51.059 --> 00:26:52.359
 and his

00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:53.559
 forgiving them

00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:55.259
 post-resurrection.

00:26:57.419 --> 00:26:58.059
 Recommissioning

00:26:58.059 --> 00:26:59.879
 them to

00:26:59.879 --> 00:27:00.279
 take this

00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:01.179
 good news

00:27:01.179 --> 00:27:02.339
 of a God

00:27:02.339 --> 00:27:02.759
 who became

00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:03.279
 man and

00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:03.939
 was crucified

00:27:03.939 --> 00:27:04.619
 for sins

00:27:04.619 --> 00:27:05.779
 and raised

00:27:05.779 --> 00:27:06.859
 victorious

00:27:06.859 --> 00:27:07.659
 over sin

00:27:07.659 --> 00:27:08.079
 and death.

00:27:08.079 --> 00:27:09.899
 to take

00:27:09.899 --> 00:27:10.259
 that to

00:27:10.259 --> 00:27:10.939
 the nations.

00:27:12.339 --> 00:27:13.240
 It's all

00:27:13.240 --> 00:27:13.779
 according to

00:27:13.779 --> 00:27:14.119
 plan.

00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:19.220
 And if

00:27:19.220 --> 00:27:19.619
 he's able

00:27:19.619 --> 00:27:20.240
 to factor

00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:20.980
 in the

00:27:20.980 --> 00:27:21.919
 failures of

00:27:21.919 --> 00:27:22.539
 those early

00:27:22.539 --> 00:27:23.139
 disciples,

00:27:23.759 --> 00:27:25.399
 he is able

00:27:25.399 --> 00:27:26.079
 to factor

00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:26.980
 in our

00:27:26.980 --> 00:27:27.899
 failures too.

00:27:31.199 --> 00:27:32.379
 In fact,

00:27:33.379 --> 00:27:34.460
 our God

00:27:34.460 --> 00:27:35.460
 specializes

00:27:35.460 --> 00:27:36.980
 in pouring

00:27:36.980 --> 00:27:37.879
 out grace

00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:38.920
 on failures

00:27:38.920 --> 00:27:40.660
 to accomplish

00:27:40.660 --> 00:27:43.040
 his glorious

00:27:43.040 --> 00:27:43.940
 purposes.

00:27:45.940 --> 00:27:46.540
 Keeps us

00:27:46.540 --> 00:27:46.760
 humble,

00:27:46.840 --> 00:27:47.220
 doesn't it?

00:27:49.740 --> 00:27:50.420
 There's one

00:27:50.420 --> 00:27:50.800
 more

00:27:50.800 --> 00:27:51.860
 surprise

00:27:51.860 --> 00:27:52.360
 and that

00:27:52.360 --> 00:27:52.740
 is

00:27:52.740 --> 00:27:54.720
 go tell

00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:55.240
 his disciples

00:27:55.240 --> 00:27:55.960
 that he is

00:27:55.960 --> 00:27:56.720
 going before

00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:57.020
 you to

00:27:57.020 --> 00:27:57.460
 Galilee.

00:27:58.300 --> 00:27:58.780
 Aslan's

00:27:58.780 --> 00:27:59.060
 on the

00:27:59.060 --> 00:27:59.480
 move.

00:28:01.280 --> 00:28:01.860
 He's on

00:28:01.860 --> 00:28:02.180
 the move.

00:28:02.300 --> 00:28:03.160
 This empty

00:28:03.160 --> 00:28:03.820
 tomb is full

00:28:03.820 --> 00:28:04.560
 of surprises.

00:28:05.220 --> 00:28:06.200
 One surprise

00:28:06.200 --> 00:28:07.259
 after another

00:28:07.259 --> 00:28:09.019
 he is

00:28:09.019 --> 00:28:09.580
 alive.

00:28:11.420 --> 00:28:12.039
 He is

00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:12.460
 restoring

00:28:12.460 --> 00:28:13.019
 grace.

00:28:15.340 --> 00:28:15.920
 And he's

00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:16.160
 on the

00:28:16.160 --> 00:28:16.400
 move.

00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:19.380
 Which brings

00:28:19.380 --> 00:28:19.700
 us to

00:28:19.700 --> 00:28:20.180
 scene three.

00:28:21.580 --> 00:28:22.220
 Coming out

00:28:22.220 --> 00:28:22.400
 of the

00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:22.580
 tomb.

00:28:25.140 --> 00:28:25.700
 And they

00:28:25.700 --> 00:28:26.080
 went out

00:28:26.080 --> 00:28:26.460
 and fled

00:28:26.460 --> 00:28:26.819
 from the

00:28:26.819 --> 00:28:27.299
 tomb for

00:28:27.299 --> 00:28:27.700
 trembling

00:28:27.700 --> 00:28:28.440
 in astonishment

00:28:28.440 --> 00:28:29.059
 had seized

00:28:29.059 --> 00:28:30.039
 them and

00:28:30.039 --> 00:28:30.340
 they said

00:28:30.340 --> 00:28:30.759
 nothing to

00:28:30.759 --> 00:28:31.340
 anyone for

00:28:31.340 --> 00:28:31.680
 they were

00:28:31.680 --> 00:28:32.240
 afraid.

00:28:33.660 --> 00:28:33.860
 I mean,

00:28:33.900 --> 00:28:34.120
 seriously,

00:28:34.200 --> 00:28:34.420
 could you

00:28:34.420 --> 00:28:34.880
 imagine being

00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:35.260
 these three

00:28:35.260 --> 00:28:35.640
 women at

00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:36.060
 this moment?

00:28:37.700 --> 00:28:38.120
 They're

00:28:38.120 --> 00:28:38.660
 expecting to

00:28:38.660 --> 00:28:39.020
 find his

00:28:39.020 --> 00:28:39.540
 corpse,

00:28:39.840 --> 00:28:40.040
 but they

00:28:40.040 --> 00:28:40.480
 find an

00:28:40.480 --> 00:28:40.960
 angel

00:28:40.960 --> 00:28:41.440
 announcing

00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:41.820
 that he

00:28:41.820 --> 00:28:42.400
 is risen

00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:43.280
 and then

00:28:43.280 --> 00:28:43.380
 they're

00:28:43.380 --> 00:28:43.560
 like,

00:28:43.660 --> 00:28:44.220
 go tell

00:28:44.220 --> 00:28:44.360
 his

00:28:44.360 --> 00:28:44.840
 disciples

00:28:44.840 --> 00:28:45.360
 that you

00:28:45.360 --> 00:28:45.720
 all are

00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:45.900
 going to

00:28:45.900 --> 00:28:46.160
 see him

00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:46.300
 in

00:28:46.300 --> 00:28:46.780
 Galilee.

00:28:47.340 --> 00:28:47.760
 Just like

00:28:47.760 --> 00:28:48.260
 he said,

00:28:48.320 --> 00:28:48.440
 you're

00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:48.600
 like,

00:28:48.820 --> 00:28:49.100
 what?

00:28:50.040 --> 00:28:50.780
 They went

00:28:50.780 --> 00:28:51.620
 to the

00:28:51.620 --> 00:28:52.100
 tomb

00:28:52.100 --> 00:28:52.940
 mourning

00:28:52.940 --> 00:28:54.260
 and they

00:28:54.260 --> 00:28:55.140
 come out

00:28:55.140 --> 00:28:55.680
 of the

00:28:55.680 --> 00:28:56.120
 tomb

00:28:56.120 --> 00:28:57.020
 in

00:28:57.020 --> 00:28:57.820
 awe.

00:28:59.820 --> 00:29:00.540
 Something

00:29:00.540 --> 00:29:01.040
 happened.

00:29:01.039 --> 00:29:03.759
 all

00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:04.019
 these

00:29:04.019 --> 00:29:04.639
 surprises

00:29:04.639 --> 00:29:05.720
 lying

00:29:05.720 --> 00:29:06.000
 within

00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:06.240
 the

00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:06.519
 empty

00:29:06.519 --> 00:29:06.899
 tomb.

00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:10.819
 What's

00:29:10.819 --> 00:29:11.220
 going on

00:29:11.220 --> 00:29:11.500
 here in

00:29:11.500 --> 00:29:12.000
 verse 8?

00:29:12.180 --> 00:29:12.420
 There's

00:29:12.420 --> 00:29:13.019
 trembling,

00:29:13.460 --> 00:29:14.079
 which literally

00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:14.740
 means shaking,

00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:16.440
 astonishment,

00:29:16.779 --> 00:29:17.259
 they're totally

00:29:17.259 --> 00:29:17.960
 overwhelmed,

00:29:18.500 --> 00:29:19.000
 they've been

00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:19.619
 seized by

00:29:19.619 --> 00:29:20.200
 these feelings,

00:29:20.319 --> 00:29:20.599
 which means

00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:20.779
 they're

00:29:20.779 --> 00:29:21.539
 controlled by

00:29:21.539 --> 00:29:21.899
 them,

00:29:22.279 --> 00:29:22.519
 they're

00:29:22.519 --> 00:29:23.619
 saying

00:29:23.619 --> 00:29:24.680
 nothing to

00:29:24.680 --> 00:29:25.139
 anyone,

00:29:25.339 --> 00:29:25.700
 which means

00:29:25.700 --> 00:29:26.019
 they're

00:29:26.019 --> 00:29:26.720
 speechless

00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:27.759
 in that

00:29:27.759 --> 00:29:28.639
 last phrase,

00:29:29.019 --> 00:29:29.440
 for they

00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:30.319
 were afraid.

00:29:31.039 --> 00:29:31.559
 What kind

00:29:31.559 --> 00:29:31.879
 of fear

00:29:31.879 --> 00:29:32.399
 is this?

00:29:32.920 --> 00:29:33.220
 Let's

00:29:33.220 --> 00:29:33.559
 rule out

00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:33.819
 a couple

00:29:33.819 --> 00:29:34.259
 things.

00:29:35.359 --> 00:29:35.559
 Well,

00:29:35.599 --> 00:29:35.740
 they're

00:29:35.740 --> 00:29:36.359
 obviously

00:29:36.359 --> 00:29:37.420
 not

00:29:37.420 --> 00:29:38.159
 overjoyed,

00:29:38.399 --> 00:29:38.799
 happy

00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:39.379
 ladies,

00:29:39.460 --> 00:29:39.899
 are they?

00:29:40.779 --> 00:29:41.139
 We can

00:29:41.139 --> 00:29:41.519
 rule that

00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:41.779
 out.

00:29:43.899 --> 00:29:44.519
 But they

00:29:44.519 --> 00:29:44.960
 didn't

00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:46.359
 run out

00:29:46.359 --> 00:29:46.579
 of the

00:29:46.579 --> 00:29:46.839
 tomb

00:29:46.839 --> 00:29:47.359
 screaming

00:29:47.359 --> 00:29:47.920
 in terror,

00:29:48.059 --> 00:29:48.420
 did they?

00:29:50.680 --> 00:29:51.319
 What kind

00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:51.940
 of fear

00:29:51.940 --> 00:29:53.339
 is this?

00:29:55.220 --> 00:29:55.859
 We come

00:29:55.859 --> 00:29:56.420
 across a

00:29:56.420 --> 00:29:57.259
 similar phrase,

00:29:57.359 --> 00:29:57.639
 they were

00:29:57.639 --> 00:29:58.059
 afraid,

00:29:58.240 --> 00:29:59.000
 in Mark

00:29:59.000 --> 00:29:59.759
 chapter 5.

00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:02.159
 Jesus

00:30:02.159 --> 00:30:03.059
 has just

00:30:03.059 --> 00:30:05.779
 released

00:30:05.779 --> 00:30:06.920
 a man

00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:07.740
 who has

00:30:07.740 --> 00:30:08.559
 been ruled

00:30:08.559 --> 00:30:09.019
 by a

00:30:09.019 --> 00:30:09.579
 legion of

00:30:09.579 --> 00:30:10.159
 demons

00:30:10.159 --> 00:30:11.180
 for who

00:30:11.180 --> 00:30:11.740
 knows how

00:30:11.740 --> 00:30:12.240
 long,

00:30:12.359 --> 00:30:13.079
 and nobody

00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:13.599
 in that

00:30:13.599 --> 00:30:14.240
 region could

00:30:14.240 --> 00:30:15.019
 subdue him.

00:30:16.700 --> 00:30:17.500
 Word gets

00:30:17.500 --> 00:30:19.319
 out to the

00:30:19.319 --> 00:30:20.000
 people in the

00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:20.659
 surrounding city

00:30:20.659 --> 00:30:21.500
 and countryside,

00:30:21.819 --> 00:30:22.440
 they come to

00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:22.619
 him,

00:30:22.700 --> 00:30:23.099
 they see

00:30:23.099 --> 00:30:23.480
 Jesus,

00:30:23.839 --> 00:30:24.480
 they see

00:30:24.480 --> 00:30:25.399
 this man

00:30:25.399 --> 00:30:26.200
 who they

00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:26.960
 could not

00:30:26.960 --> 00:30:27.599
 subdue,

00:30:28.039 --> 00:30:29.000
 sitting next

00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:29.740
 to Jesus,

00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:31.319
 clothed in

00:30:31.319 --> 00:30:31.779
 his right

00:30:31.779 --> 00:30:32.299
 mind,

00:30:32.539 --> 00:30:32.799
 and you

00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:33.039
 know what

00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:33.660
 their response

00:30:33.660 --> 00:30:34.000
 was?

00:30:34.599 --> 00:30:35.240
 They were

00:30:35.240 --> 00:30:35.680
 afraid.

00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:39.039
 They

00:30:39.039 --> 00:30:39.759
 actually begged

00:30:39.759 --> 00:30:40.319
 Jesus to

00:30:40.319 --> 00:30:40.660
 leave at

00:30:40.660 --> 00:30:41.099
 that point.

00:30:43.019 --> 00:30:43.720
 These three

00:30:43.720 --> 00:30:44.039
 women,

00:30:44.740 --> 00:30:45.920
 they come out

00:30:45.920 --> 00:30:46.480
 of the empty

00:30:46.480 --> 00:30:47.019
 tomb,

00:30:47.400 --> 00:30:47.920
 full of

00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:48.519
 surprises,

00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:49.660
 he has

00:30:49.660 --> 00:30:50.180
 risen,

00:30:51.619 --> 00:30:52.599
 and they

00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:53.839
 are speechless

00:30:53.839 --> 00:30:56.879
 in awe.

00:30:58.559 --> 00:30:59.279
 Because they

00:30:59.279 --> 00:30:59.959
 are realizing

00:30:59.959 --> 00:31:00.399
 that what

00:31:00.399 --> 00:31:01.119
 Jesus has

00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:01.939
 repeatedly

00:31:01.939 --> 00:31:02.879
 said about

00:31:02.879 --> 00:31:04.240
 himself has

00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:04.619
 come to

00:31:04.619 --> 00:31:05.139
 pass.

00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:08.459
 I'll be

00:31:08.459 --> 00:31:08.819
 raised on

00:31:08.819 --> 00:31:09.079
 the third

00:31:09.079 --> 00:31:09.339
 day.

00:31:12.059 --> 00:31:12.819
 This is not

00:31:12.819 --> 00:31:13.579
 disbelief,

00:31:13.740 --> 00:31:14.139
 this is not

00:31:14.139 --> 00:31:14.859
 unbelief,

00:31:15.099 --> 00:31:15.759
 this is

00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:17.619
 speechless,

00:31:18.079 --> 00:31:18.679
 fear and

00:31:18.679 --> 00:31:20.039
 trembling awe.

00:31:21.000 --> 00:31:21.379
 They have

00:31:21.379 --> 00:31:22.059
 heard,

00:31:22.500 --> 00:31:22.879
 and have

00:31:22.879 --> 00:31:23.319
 begun to

00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:24.919
 believe that

00:31:24.919 --> 00:31:26.619
 Jesus is

00:31:26.619 --> 00:31:27.159
 alive.

00:31:29.139 --> 00:31:30.039
 They went

00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:30.439
 to the

00:31:30.439 --> 00:31:31.119
 empty tomb

00:31:31.119 --> 00:31:31.539
 grieving,

00:31:32.299 --> 00:31:32.740
 and they

00:31:32.740 --> 00:31:33.419
 flee the

00:31:33.419 --> 00:31:34.619
 tomb in

00:31:34.619 --> 00:31:35.740
 hopeful

00:31:35.740 --> 00:31:37.099
 awe,

00:31:37.659 --> 00:31:38.859
 expecting to

00:31:38.859 --> 00:31:40.039
 see a

00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:40.799
 risen Jesus

00:31:40.799 --> 00:31:41.879
 in Galilee.

00:31:43.960 --> 00:31:44.919
 The empty

00:31:44.919 --> 00:31:45.379
 tomb is full

00:31:45.379 --> 00:31:45.980
 of surprises,

00:31:46.139 --> 00:31:46.480
 isn't it?

00:31:48.980 --> 00:31:50.139
 It changes

00:31:50.139 --> 00:31:50.579
 people.

00:31:50.579 --> 00:31:50.619
 It changes

00:31:50.619 --> 00:31:50.639
 people.

00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:53.840
 Jesus is

00:31:53.840 --> 00:31:54.220
 alive,

00:31:54.300 --> 00:31:54.520
 he's on

00:31:54.520 --> 00:31:54.940
 the move,

00:31:55.040 --> 00:31:55.220
 they will

00:31:55.220 --> 00:31:55.580
 see him

00:31:55.580 --> 00:31:56.020
 soon,

00:31:56.360 --> 00:31:57.820
 just as

00:31:57.820 --> 00:31:58.040
 he has

00:31:58.040 --> 00:31:58.200
 said.

00:32:00.620 --> 00:32:01.140
 What does

00:32:01.140 --> 00:32:01.400
 this mean

00:32:01.400 --> 00:32:01.780
 for us?

00:32:01.860 --> 00:32:02.200
 What's the

00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:02.480
 point?

00:32:03.160 --> 00:32:03.660
 The point are

00:32:03.660 --> 00:32:04.060
 just really

00:32:04.060 --> 00:32:04.820
 three words.

00:32:05.340 --> 00:32:05.900
 He has

00:32:05.900 --> 00:32:06.360
 risen.

00:32:06.520 --> 00:32:06.940
 Let me say

00:32:06.940 --> 00:32:07.160
 that,

00:32:07.259 --> 00:32:07.840
 you respond.

00:32:08.180 --> 00:32:08.560
 He has

00:32:08.560 --> 00:32:08.900
 risen.

00:32:11.220 --> 00:32:12.020
 Which means

00:32:12.020 --> 00:32:12.660
 Jesus is

00:32:12.660 --> 00:32:13.400
 alive today.

00:32:14.440 --> 00:32:14.740
 Today.

00:32:14.740 --> 00:32:14.900
 Today.

00:32:14.900 --> 00:32:18.280
 this surprise

00:32:18.280 --> 00:32:19.180
 announcement of

00:32:19.180 --> 00:32:20.120
 this angel in

00:32:20.120 --> 00:32:20.580
 the empty

00:32:20.580 --> 00:32:21.380
 tomb, it

00:32:21.380 --> 00:32:22.540
 speaks of a

00:32:22.540 --> 00:32:23.320
 reality that

00:32:23.320 --> 00:32:24.920
 changes everything,

00:32:25.080 --> 00:32:25.900
 and it changes

00:32:25.900 --> 00:32:27.680
 everything for

00:32:27.680 --> 00:32:28.360
 all who believe

00:32:28.360 --> 00:32:28.540
 it.

00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:31.259
 Do you

00:32:31.259 --> 00:32:31.900
 believe that

00:32:31.900 --> 00:32:32.460
 Jesus has

00:32:32.460 --> 00:32:32.759
 been risen

00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:33.120
 from the

00:32:33.120 --> 00:32:33.300
 dead?

00:32:34.800 --> 00:32:35.460
 Do you

00:32:35.460 --> 00:32:36.140
 believe that

00:32:36.140 --> 00:32:36.660
 Jesus is

00:32:36.660 --> 00:32:37.320
 alive today?

00:32:40.180 --> 00:32:41.200
 These three

00:32:41.200 --> 00:32:42.400
 little words

00:32:42.400 --> 00:32:43.180
 change

00:32:43.180 --> 00:32:44.039
 everything.

00:32:45.840 --> 00:32:46.480
 He has

00:32:46.480 --> 00:32:46.759
 risen.

00:32:46.880 --> 00:32:47.060
 It's a

00:32:47.060 --> 00:32:47.720
 surprising

00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:48.200
 fulfillment.

00:32:49.700 --> 00:32:50.039
 This is

00:32:50.039 --> 00:32:50.539
 according to

00:32:50.539 --> 00:32:51.120
 the scriptures

00:32:51.120 --> 00:32:52.560
 of Psalm

00:32:52.560 --> 00:32:53.660
 16 and

00:32:53.660 --> 00:32:55.240
 Isaiah 53

00:32:55.240 --> 00:32:55.700
 again,

00:32:55.779 --> 00:32:56.539
 verse 10.

00:32:57.340 --> 00:32:57.660
 His day

00:32:57.660 --> 00:32:57.980
 shall be

00:32:57.980 --> 00:32:58.600
 prolonged.

00:33:00.299 --> 00:33:01.259
 It's all in

00:33:01.259 --> 00:33:01.860
 accordance with

00:33:01.860 --> 00:33:02.320
 the scriptures,

00:33:02.460 --> 00:33:02.980
 but not just

00:33:02.980 --> 00:33:03.620
 Old Testament

00:33:03.620 --> 00:33:04.080
 scriptures.

00:33:04.220 --> 00:33:04.580
 This is

00:33:04.580 --> 00:33:05.400
 fulfilling of

00:33:05.400 --> 00:33:05.880
 what Jesus

00:33:05.880 --> 00:33:06.519
 himself has

00:33:06.519 --> 00:33:06.980
 said five

00:33:06.980 --> 00:33:07.580
 times in

00:33:07.580 --> 00:33:07.900
 Mark.

00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:09.060
 He said

00:33:09.060 --> 00:33:09.299
 he'd be

00:33:09.299 --> 00:33:09.660
 raised from

00:33:09.660 --> 00:33:09.980
 the dead.

00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:10.940
 Do you

00:33:10.940 --> 00:33:11.240
 know anybody

00:33:11.240 --> 00:33:11.720
 like that?

00:33:13.180 --> 00:33:13.500
 Not only

00:33:13.500 --> 00:33:13.860
 know you're

00:33:13.860 --> 00:33:14.019
 going to

00:33:14.019 --> 00:33:14.380
 die,

00:33:14.600 --> 00:33:14.940
 when you're

00:33:14.940 --> 00:33:15.100
 going to

00:33:15.100 --> 00:33:15.320
 die,

00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:15.600
 but then

00:33:15.600 --> 00:33:15.759
 you're

00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:15.779
 going to

00:33:15.779 --> 00:33:16.259
 be raised

00:33:16.259 --> 00:33:16.600
 and then

00:33:16.600 --> 00:33:17.259
 it happens.

00:33:19.980 --> 00:33:20.620
 Who is

00:33:20.620 --> 00:33:21.060
 this guy?

00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:25.279
 If all

00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:25.640
 this is

00:33:25.640 --> 00:33:25.940
 true,

00:33:26.820 --> 00:33:28.100
 if he died

00:33:28.100 --> 00:33:28.500
 for our

00:33:28.500 --> 00:33:28.980
 sins and

00:33:28.980 --> 00:33:29.460
 was raised

00:33:29.460 --> 00:33:29.779
 from the

00:33:29.779 --> 00:33:30.259
 dead and

00:33:30.259 --> 00:33:30.779
 he's alive

00:33:30.779 --> 00:33:31.240
 today,

00:33:31.600 --> 00:33:32.660
 if that's

00:33:32.660 --> 00:33:33.340
 true,

00:33:34.039 --> 00:33:34.640
 then Jesus

00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:36.279
 is unlike

00:33:36.279 --> 00:33:37.960
 anyone else

00:33:37.960 --> 00:33:39.440
 in existence.

00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:43.299
 not just

00:33:43.299 --> 00:33:44.000
 surprising

00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:44.559
 fulfillment,

00:33:44.920 --> 00:33:46.200
 but surprising

00:33:46.200 --> 00:33:46.759
 grace.

00:33:47.019 --> 00:33:47.340
 I mean,

00:33:48.559 --> 00:33:49.400
 restorative

00:33:49.400 --> 00:33:50.180
 grace.

00:33:51.259 --> 00:33:52.259
 These words

00:33:52.259 --> 00:33:53.360
 full of grace

00:33:53.360 --> 00:33:54.019
 come out of

00:33:54.019 --> 00:33:54.559
 the tomb.

00:33:54.960 --> 00:33:55.299
 Isn't that

00:33:55.299 --> 00:33:55.820
 good news

00:33:55.820 --> 00:33:56.299
 for us?

00:33:57.220 --> 00:33:57.920
 I needed

00:33:57.920 --> 00:33:58.240
 to hear

00:33:58.240 --> 00:33:58.600
 that.

00:34:01.820 --> 00:34:02.640
 If Jesus

00:34:02.640 --> 00:34:03.180
 can restore

00:34:03.180 --> 00:34:03.539
 Peter,

00:34:03.720 --> 00:34:03.960
 he can

00:34:03.960 --> 00:34:04.500
 restore you

00:34:04.500 --> 00:34:04.860
 and me.

00:34:06.539 --> 00:34:07.320
 This is a

00:34:07.320 --> 00:34:07.660
 surprising

00:34:07.660 --> 00:34:08.000
 claim.

00:34:08.000 --> 00:34:10.920
 he has

00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:11.219
 risen.

00:34:12.780 --> 00:34:13.420
 It's a

00:34:13.420 --> 00:34:13.760
 surprising

00:34:13.760 --> 00:34:14.139
 claim.

00:34:15.860 --> 00:34:16.599
 People don't

00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:16.980
 rise from

00:34:16.980 --> 00:34:17.280
 the dead.

00:34:18.900 --> 00:34:19.599
 This is a

00:34:19.599 --> 00:34:21.000
 God-sized

00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:21.800
 miracle.

00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:23.400
 And all

00:34:23.400 --> 00:34:24.380
 of Christianity

00:34:24.380 --> 00:34:25.820
 falls or

00:34:25.820 --> 00:34:27.380
 rises on

00:34:27.380 --> 00:34:28.019
 these three

00:34:28.019 --> 00:34:28.500
 words.

00:34:29.780 --> 00:34:30.119
 He has

00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:30.380
 risen.

00:34:31.739 --> 00:34:32.460
 He's either

00:34:32.460 --> 00:34:33.179
 alive today

00:34:33.179 --> 00:34:33.639
 or he's

00:34:33.639 --> 00:34:34.280
 long dead.

00:34:36.019 --> 00:34:36.659
 We're given

00:34:36.659 --> 00:34:37.179
 a surprising

00:34:37.179 --> 00:34:37.980
 glimpse that

00:34:37.980 --> 00:34:38.480
 Jesus is

00:34:38.480 --> 00:34:38.780
 on the

00:34:38.780 --> 00:34:39.139
 move.

00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:39.619
 Aslan

00:34:39.619 --> 00:34:39.960
 is on

00:34:39.960 --> 00:34:40.420
 the move.

00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:42.559
 Today,

00:34:42.659 --> 00:34:43.119
 he's at

00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:44.519
 work all

00:34:44.519 --> 00:34:45.260
 around this

00:34:45.260 --> 00:34:47.000
 globe calling

00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:47.639
 a people from

00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:48.240
 every tribe,

00:34:48.360 --> 00:34:48.519
 tongue,

00:34:48.599 --> 00:34:49.360
 and nation to

00:34:49.360 --> 00:34:50.280
 himself because

00:34:50.280 --> 00:34:51.579
 he's been

00:34:51.579 --> 00:34:51.920
 given a

00:34:51.920 --> 00:34:52.539
 dominion,

00:34:53.460 --> 00:34:54.260
 a kingdom,

00:34:54.980 --> 00:34:55.619
 everlasting

00:34:55.619 --> 00:34:57.000
 and indestructible

00:34:57.000 --> 00:34:58.619
 because he is

00:34:58.619 --> 00:34:59.260
 the son of

00:34:59.260 --> 00:34:59.559
 man.

00:35:02.840 --> 00:35:03.440
 Surprising

00:35:03.440 --> 00:35:03.880
 glimpse.

00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:06.119
 His

00:35:06.119 --> 00:35:06.599
 resurrection

00:35:06.599 --> 00:35:07.460
 defeated sin.

00:35:08.339 --> 00:35:08.619
 His

00:35:08.619 --> 00:35:09.099
 resurrection

00:35:09.099 --> 00:35:09.940
 defeated death.

00:35:10.339 --> 00:35:10.579
 His

00:35:10.579 --> 00:35:11.119
 resurrection

00:35:11.119 --> 00:35:11.860
 defeated the

00:35:11.860 --> 00:35:12.099
 devil.

00:35:12.460 --> 00:35:12.900
 And if you

00:35:12.900 --> 00:35:13.440
 believe in

00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:14.219
 him, you

00:35:14.219 --> 00:35:14.940
 are brought

00:35:14.940 --> 00:35:15.719
 into that

00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:17.699
 victory over

00:35:17.699 --> 00:35:18.799
 sin, death,

00:35:18.900 --> 00:35:19.360
 and the devil

00:35:19.360 --> 00:35:19.719
 too.

00:35:21.179 --> 00:35:21.699
 His bloody

00:35:21.699 --> 00:35:23.480
 cross and

00:35:23.480 --> 00:35:24.000
 his empty

00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:25.579
 tomb are

00:35:25.579 --> 00:35:26.460
 good news.

00:35:28.460 --> 00:35:29.719
 Behold your

00:35:29.719 --> 00:35:30.940
 risen king.

00:35:30.940 --> 00:35:31.000
 risen.

00:35:34.880 --> 00:35:35.559
 How do we

00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:36.000
 respond?

00:35:39.780 --> 00:35:40.500
 These three

00:35:40.500 --> 00:35:41.019
 words, he

00:35:41.019 --> 00:35:41.579
 has risen,

00:35:42.119 --> 00:35:42.579
 which means

00:35:42.579 --> 00:35:43.039
 for us he's

00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:43.700
 alive today.

00:35:44.820 --> 00:35:45.480
 How do you

00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:45.940
 respond to

00:35:45.940 --> 00:35:46.159
 that?

00:35:47.440 --> 00:35:48.039
 Well, if you're

00:35:48.039 --> 00:35:48.720
 not a Christian

00:35:48.720 --> 00:35:49.440
 in the room,

00:35:50.740 --> 00:35:51.500
 you've got to

00:35:51.500 --> 00:35:52.039
 come to terms

00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:52.400
 with these

00:35:52.400 --> 00:35:52.780
 words.

00:35:54.320 --> 00:35:55.119
 They're either

00:35:55.119 --> 00:35:56.280
 true or

00:35:56.280 --> 00:35:56.760
 they're not.

00:35:56.940 --> 00:35:57.519
 Jesus is either

00:35:57.519 --> 00:35:58.720
 presently alive

00:35:58.719 --> 00:35:59.559
 or he's

00:35:59.559 --> 00:36:00.439
 long dead.

00:36:01.779 --> 00:36:02.359
 All of

00:36:02.359 --> 00:36:02.779
 Christianity

00:36:02.779 --> 00:36:03.359
 rises or

00:36:03.359 --> 00:36:03.799
 falls on

00:36:03.799 --> 00:36:03.959
 it.

00:36:06.980 --> 00:36:07.539
 If he

00:36:07.539 --> 00:36:07.959
 wasn't raised

00:36:07.959 --> 00:36:08.239
 from the

00:36:08.239 --> 00:36:09.619
 dead, don't

00:36:09.619 --> 00:36:10.099
 waste your

00:36:10.099 --> 00:36:10.759
 time with

00:36:10.759 --> 00:36:11.299
 Christianity.

00:36:12.939 --> 00:36:13.619
 But if he's

00:36:13.619 --> 00:36:14.119
 been raised

00:36:14.119 --> 00:36:14.459
 from the

00:36:14.459 --> 00:36:16.500
 dead, his

00:36:16.500 --> 00:36:17.219
 claims of

00:36:17.219 --> 00:36:17.539
 being the

00:36:17.539 --> 00:36:18.279
 Christ, his

00:36:18.279 --> 00:36:18.839
 claims of

00:36:18.839 --> 00:36:19.159
 being the

00:36:19.159 --> 00:36:19.439
 Son of

00:36:19.439 --> 00:36:19.839
 Man and

00:36:19.839 --> 00:36:20.139
 the Son

00:36:20.139 --> 00:36:20.500
 of God,

00:36:20.559 --> 00:36:20.980
 the great

00:36:20.980 --> 00:36:21.739
 I Am,

00:36:22.980 --> 00:36:24.939
 man, that

00:36:24.939 --> 00:36:25.199
 means he's

00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:25.480
 the king

00:36:25.480 --> 00:36:25.879
 of all.

00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:28.440
 God's

00:36:28.440 --> 00:36:28.940
 only way

00:36:28.940 --> 00:36:29.579
 of salvation,

00:36:30.300 --> 00:36:30.840
 the way to

00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:31.539
 respond to

00:36:31.539 --> 00:36:32.260
 that is

00:36:32.260 --> 00:36:33.000
 Romans 10

00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:33.240
 9.

00:36:33.320 --> 00:36:33.619
 If we

00:36:33.619 --> 00:36:35.180
 confess with

00:36:35.180 --> 00:36:35.760
 our mouth

00:36:35.760 --> 00:36:36.340
 that Jesus

00:36:36.340 --> 00:36:36.900
 is Lord,

00:36:37.059 --> 00:36:38.160
 King, and

00:36:38.160 --> 00:36:38.660
 believe in

00:36:38.660 --> 00:36:39.059
 our hearts

00:36:39.059 --> 00:36:39.460
 that God

00:36:39.460 --> 00:36:39.960
 raised him

00:36:39.960 --> 00:36:40.260
 from the

00:36:40.260 --> 00:36:40.619
 dead, you

00:36:40.619 --> 00:36:40.920
 will be

00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:42.519
 saved, you'll

00:36:42.519 --> 00:36:43.059
 be rescued,

00:36:43.260 --> 00:36:43.500
 you'll be

00:36:43.500 --> 00:36:43.980
 brought into

00:36:43.980 --> 00:36:44.440
 the kingdom,

00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:45.360
 and the way

00:36:45.360 --> 00:36:45.720
 that we

00:36:45.720 --> 00:36:47.840
 respond to

00:36:47.840 --> 00:36:48.500
 this great

00:36:48.500 --> 00:36:49.360
 news is

00:36:49.360 --> 00:36:50.700
 confessing

00:36:50.700 --> 00:36:51.140
 him and

00:36:51.140 --> 00:36:51.640
 then denying

00:36:51.640 --> 00:36:52.119
 ourselves,

00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:52.640
 taking up

00:36:52.640 --> 00:36:53.079
 our cross,

00:36:53.220 --> 00:36:53.680
 and following

00:36:53.680 --> 00:36:54.539
 him for

00:36:54.539 --> 00:36:55.000
 the rest of

00:36:55.000 --> 00:36:55.480
 our lives.

00:36:55.880 --> 00:36:59.539
 There's a

00:36:59.539 --> 00:36:59.820
 group of

00:36:59.820 --> 00:37:00.220
 people in

00:37:00.220 --> 00:37:00.539
 the room

00:37:00.539 --> 00:37:00.900
 that I'm

00:37:00.900 --> 00:37:01.260
 concerned

00:37:01.260 --> 00:37:01.860
 about that

00:37:01.860 --> 00:37:02.119
 I just

00:37:02.119 --> 00:37:02.420
 want to

00:37:02.420 --> 00:37:04.400
 say, let

00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:04.619
 me help

00:37:04.619 --> 00:37:04.900
 you think

00:37:04.900 --> 00:37:05.280
 this through

00:37:05.280 --> 00:37:05.500
 a little

00:37:05.500 --> 00:37:05.720
 bit.

00:37:07.780 --> 00:37:09.079
 If you've

00:37:09.079 --> 00:37:09.420
 grown up

00:37:09.420 --> 00:37:09.619
 in the

00:37:09.619 --> 00:37:11.360
 church, and

00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:11.920
 you've heard

00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:12.780
 this good

00:37:12.780 --> 00:37:13.380
 news over

00:37:13.380 --> 00:37:13.619
 and over

00:37:13.619 --> 00:37:14.380
 again, do

00:37:14.380 --> 00:37:14.519
 you know

00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:14.820
 when it's

00:37:14.820 --> 00:37:16.019
 possible to

00:37:16.019 --> 00:37:16.500
 respond to

00:37:16.500 --> 00:37:16.619
 it?

00:37:16.820 --> 00:37:17.160
 It's

00:37:17.160 --> 00:37:17.860
 possible to

00:37:17.860 --> 00:37:18.440
 respond this

00:37:18.440 --> 00:37:18.660
 way.

00:37:19.820 --> 00:37:20.220
 Yeah, I

00:37:20.220 --> 00:37:21.720
 believe that's

00:37:21.720 --> 00:37:24.160
 true, but

00:37:24.160 --> 00:37:24.780
 you never

00:37:24.780 --> 00:37:25.860
 actually

00:37:25.860 --> 00:37:27.180
 commit to

00:37:27.180 --> 00:37:27.560
 following

00:37:27.560 --> 00:37:28.000
 Jesus.

00:37:29.560 --> 00:37:30.340
 You think,

00:37:30.480 --> 00:37:30.960
 yeah, I

00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:31.280
 agree with

00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:32.200
 that, but

00:37:32.200 --> 00:37:32.660
 you're still

00:37:32.660 --> 00:37:33.120
 living for

00:37:33.120 --> 00:37:33.640
 yourself.

00:37:38.640 --> 00:37:39.220
 According to

00:37:39.220 --> 00:37:39.460
 the New

00:37:39.460 --> 00:37:39.860
 Testament,

00:37:40.180 --> 00:37:40.640
 those who

00:37:40.640 --> 00:37:41.660
 confess Jesus

00:37:41.660 --> 00:37:42.320
 as their

00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:43.360
 king, then

00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:43.620
 deny

00:37:43.620 --> 00:37:44.380
 themselves, take

00:37:44.380 --> 00:37:44.640
 up their

00:37:44.640 --> 00:37:45.060
 cross and

00:37:45.060 --> 00:37:45.420
 follow him.

00:37:45.480 --> 00:37:45.880
 They commit

00:37:45.880 --> 00:37:46.260
 to him.

00:37:46.260 --> 00:37:50.100
 if you're

00:37:50.100 --> 00:37:50.460
 not a

00:37:50.460 --> 00:37:52.280
 Christian, or

00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:52.780
 you think

00:37:52.780 --> 00:37:53.180
 you're a

00:37:53.180 --> 00:37:53.700
 Christian, but

00:37:53.700 --> 00:37:54.220
 you're not,

00:37:55.240 --> 00:37:56.000
 you need to

00:37:56.000 --> 00:37:56.620
 decide whether

00:37:56.620 --> 00:37:57.060
 or not the

00:37:57.060 --> 00:37:57.460
 resurrection

00:37:57.460 --> 00:37:58.420
 actually happened,

00:37:58.520 --> 00:37:59.100
 is it true or

00:37:59.100 --> 00:37:59.780
 not, and

00:37:59.780 --> 00:38:00.340
 then you need

00:38:00.340 --> 00:38:00.940
 to decide,

00:38:01.420 --> 00:38:02.060
 will I

00:38:02.060 --> 00:38:02.700
 commit to

00:38:02.700 --> 00:38:03.140
 following

00:38:03.140 --> 00:38:03.740
 Jesus?

00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:07.940
 For those

00:38:07.940 --> 00:38:08.320
 of us who

00:38:08.320 --> 00:38:08.960
 are Christians,

00:38:11.960 --> 00:38:13.100
 isn't this

00:38:13.100 --> 00:38:13.900
 just wonderful

00:38:13.900 --> 00:38:14.360
 to hear?

00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:17.099
 Our king's

00:38:17.099 --> 00:38:17.500
 alive.

00:38:19.780 --> 00:38:20.760
 Our Aslan,

00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:21.539
 the Lion of

00:38:21.539 --> 00:38:22.820
 Judah, is

00:38:22.820 --> 00:38:23.440
 alive.

00:38:25.900 --> 00:38:26.519
 It's easy

00:38:26.519 --> 00:38:26.980
 to forget.

00:38:30.139 --> 00:38:30.780
 It's easy

00:38:30.780 --> 00:38:31.200
 to fall

00:38:31.200 --> 00:38:31.700
 asleep,

00:38:33.539 --> 00:38:34.619
 to drift,

00:38:36.619 --> 00:38:37.860
 to lose

00:38:37.860 --> 00:38:38.180
 sight of

00:38:38.180 --> 00:38:38.660
 what matters

00:38:38.660 --> 00:38:39.139
 most.

00:38:40.680 --> 00:38:41.059
 In those

00:38:41.059 --> 00:38:41.880
 three words,

00:38:42.039 --> 00:38:42.440
 he has

00:38:42.440 --> 00:38:42.940
 risen.

00:38:43.900 --> 00:38:44.400
 They're

00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:45.440
 like smelling

00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:46.280
 salts to

00:38:46.280 --> 00:38:47.019
 our souls.

00:38:48.300 --> 00:38:49.019
 They wake

00:38:49.019 --> 00:38:49.400
 us up.

00:38:51.559 --> 00:38:52.340
 They help

00:38:52.340 --> 00:38:52.900
 us to

00:38:52.900 --> 00:38:53.860
 not just

00:38:53.860 --> 00:38:54.740
 stay awake,

00:38:54.820 --> 00:38:55.240
 but stay

00:38:55.240 --> 00:38:56.360
 awake looking

00:38:56.360 --> 00:38:58.340
 for our

00:38:58.340 --> 00:38:59.160
 king,

00:39:01.360 --> 00:39:01.780
 anticipating

00:39:01.780 --> 00:39:02.500
 his return.

00:39:05.680 --> 00:39:06.619
 Jesus went

00:39:06.619 --> 00:39:06.940
 to the

00:39:06.940 --> 00:39:07.460
 tomb dead

00:39:07.460 --> 00:39:08.720
 and came

00:39:08.720 --> 00:39:09.099
 out of the

00:39:09.099 --> 00:39:10.380
 tomb alive

00:39:10.380 --> 00:39:11.519
 so that we

00:39:11.519 --> 00:39:11.820
 would be

00:39:11.820 --> 00:39:12.260
 wholehearted

00:39:12.260 --> 00:39:12.980
 followers of

00:39:12.980 --> 00:39:14.099
 him.

00:39:16.599 --> 00:39:17.119
 To

00:39:17.119 --> 00:39:17.420
 treasure

00:39:17.420 --> 00:39:18.079
 Jesus above

00:39:18.079 --> 00:39:18.619
 all else.

00:39:20.380 --> 00:39:20.920
 To

00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:21.719
 obey him

00:39:21.719 --> 00:39:22.360
 in all

00:39:22.360 --> 00:39:22.599
 that he

00:39:22.599 --> 00:39:22.900
 commands.

00:39:24.320 --> 00:39:24.840
 To

00:39:24.840 --> 00:39:25.840
 magnify him

00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:26.320
 among all

00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:26.679
 people.

00:39:26.820 --> 00:39:27.820
 We no longer

00:39:27.820 --> 00:39:28.519
 make a name

00:39:28.519 --> 00:39:29.480
 for ourselves,

00:39:29.639 --> 00:39:30.760
 nor do we

00:39:30.760 --> 00:39:31.360
 seek to

00:39:31.360 --> 00:39:32.240
 protect our

00:39:32.240 --> 00:39:33.260
 reputations

00:39:33.260 --> 00:39:34.079
 when it

00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:34.500
 comes to

00:39:34.500 --> 00:39:34.760
 him.

00:39:36.199 --> 00:39:37.099
 We magnify

00:39:37.099 --> 00:39:37.340
 him.

00:39:38.840 --> 00:39:39.699
 We speak

00:39:39.699 --> 00:39:39.960
 of our

00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:40.639
 crucified and

00:39:40.639 --> 00:39:41.179
 risen king,

00:39:41.179 --> 00:39:42.839
 and we

00:39:42.839 --> 00:39:43.519
 belong to

00:39:43.519 --> 00:39:44.679
 him with

00:39:44.679 --> 00:39:45.099
 all who

00:39:45.099 --> 00:39:45.679
 treasure him.

00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:46.839
 He is

00:39:46.839 --> 00:39:47.339
 forming a

00:39:47.339 --> 00:39:47.859
 new family

00:39:47.859 --> 00:39:48.419
 of faith

00:39:48.419 --> 00:39:50.119
 and we

00:39:50.119 --> 00:39:50.599
 are bound

00:39:50.599 --> 00:39:51.239
 together by

00:39:51.239 --> 00:39:51.859
 a love

00:39:51.859 --> 00:39:52.500
 that is

00:39:52.500 --> 00:39:52.859
 born of

00:39:52.859 --> 00:39:53.480
 the spirit.

00:39:55.859 --> 00:39:56.219
 Blood

00:39:56.219 --> 00:39:56.579
 bought,

00:39:57.059 --> 00:39:57.799
 blood bound,

00:39:58.319 --> 00:39:58.839
 spirit

00:39:58.839 --> 00:40:00.319
 empowered love

00:40:00.319 --> 00:40:00.919
 for one another

00:40:00.919 --> 00:40:01.460
 in the family.

00:40:01.859 --> 00:40:02.539
 We belong to

00:40:02.539 --> 00:40:03.139
 one another

00:40:03.139 --> 00:40:03.699
 regardless

00:40:03.699 --> 00:40:05.759
 of our

00:40:05.759 --> 00:40:06.259
 backgrounds,

00:40:06.260 --> 00:40:08.140
 regardless of

00:40:08.140 --> 00:40:08.880
 skin color,

00:40:09.680 --> 00:40:10.580
 regardless of

00:40:10.580 --> 00:40:12.040
 salary rates,

00:40:12.340 --> 00:40:13.000
 education,

00:40:13.300 --> 00:40:13.980
 you name it.

00:40:15.660 --> 00:40:16.660
 We belong

00:40:16.660 --> 00:40:17.400
 to him with

00:40:17.400 --> 00:40:17.700
 all who

00:40:17.700 --> 00:40:18.340
 treasure him.

00:40:18.740 --> 00:40:19.140
 We're the

00:40:19.140 --> 00:40:19.800
 new family

00:40:19.800 --> 00:40:20.360
 of faith

00:40:20.360 --> 00:40:22.340
 doing his

00:40:22.340 --> 00:40:22.560
 will.

00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:25.500
 Jesus went

00:40:25.500 --> 00:40:25.900
 to the tomb

00:40:25.900 --> 00:40:26.580
 and came out

00:40:26.580 --> 00:40:27.160
 so that we

00:40:27.160 --> 00:40:27.640
 would treasure,

00:40:27.880 --> 00:40:28.140
 obey,

00:40:28.400 --> 00:40:29.000
 magnify,

00:40:29.140 --> 00:40:29.740
 and belong

00:40:29.740 --> 00:40:30.200
 to him.

00:40:30.720 --> 00:40:31.140
 Because he's

00:40:31.140 --> 00:40:31.420
 our one

00:40:31.420 --> 00:40:31.800
 consuming

00:40:31.800 --> 00:40:32.220
 passion.

00:40:33.220 --> 00:40:33.600
 He's our

00:40:33.600 --> 00:40:34.220
 all governing

00:40:34.220 --> 00:40:34.800
 reality.

00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:38.460
 and we

00:40:38.460 --> 00:40:39.060
 stay awake.

00:40:42.840 --> 00:40:43.380
 In the

00:40:43.380 --> 00:40:43.519
 Lion,

00:40:43.600 --> 00:40:43.820
 the Witch,

00:40:43.840 --> 00:40:44.019
 and the
