The Word, The World, and My Sanctification

TITLE: At the Empty TombTEXT: Luke 24:1-12JC Ryle – “The fact of our Lord’s resurrection rests on evidence which no infidel can ever explain away. It is confirmed by testimony of every kind, sort, and description. The plain unvarnished story which the Gospel writers tell about it, is one that cannot be overthrown… If we choose to deny the truth of their account we may deny everything in the world. It is not so certain that Julius Caesar once lived, as it is that Christ rose again.”At the empty tomb:1 – WE FEEL THE POTENTIAL FOR CONFUSION – V.1-4aMatt Perman – “When we look at the evidence, the truth of the resurrection emerges very clearly as the best explanation. There is no other theory that even comes close to accounting for the evidence. Therefore, there is solid historical grounds for the truth that Jesus Christ rose from the dead.”Clearing up the confusion…Strong historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ:2A. The Empty Tomb – Luke 24:32B. The Resurrection Appearances – 1 Corinthians 15:3-81 Corinthians 15:3-8 -  For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures,  and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me.”2C. The Origin of the Christian FaithJC Ryle – “Let us cling firmly to the resurrection of Christ, as one of the pillars of the Gospel. It ought to produce in our minds a settled conviction of the truth of Christianity. Our faith does not depend merely on a set of texts and doctrines. It is founded on a mighty historical fact which the skeptic has never been able to overturn.”2 – WE FIND THE PLACE OF HOPE – V.4b-83 – WE FACE A POINT OF DECISION – V.9-12Two responses to the resurrection of Jesus Christ:Are you a believer? Go tell the rest – V.9-10Are you a doubter? Go see for yourself – V.11-12

At the Empty Tomb

Your Saviour’s Place of prayerText: Luke 22:39-46Luke 21:36-37 … “But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.” And every day he was teaching in the temple, but at night he went out and lodged on the mount called Olivet.PRAYER WAS YOUR SAVIOUR’S PLACE OF:1) SUBMISSION (v42)Is 51:17:Wake yourself, wake yourself,       stand up, O Jerusalem,                   you who have drunk from the hand of the LORD       the cup of his wrath,                   who have drunk to the dregs       the bowl, the cup of staggering. --Matt 26:39And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.”--Phillip Ryken: “This was a sacred space within which a radical decision is made that reverses the course of human history.” PRAYER WAS YOUR SAVIOUR’S PLACE OF:2) AGONY (v43-44)BB Warfield: “In these supreme moments our Lord sounded the ultimate depths of human anguish.… The scope of these sufferings was very broad, embracing that whole series of painful emotions which runs from a consternation that is appalled dismay, through a despondency which is almost despair, to a sense of well-nigh complete desolation. In the presence of this mental anguish the physical tortures of the crucifixion retire into the background, and we may well believe that our Lord, though he died on the cross, yet died not of the cross, but of a broken heart, that is to say, of the strain of his mental suffering.”--Jn 19:33-34 … But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water.--Matt 26:27b-28 … “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.” --Phil Ryken: “When we see the blood on his sweaty brow, it is almost as precious to us as the blood he shed on the cross, because here in the garden we see how much Jesus suffered in choosing to die for our sins—a choice he made over against his own will.”PRAYER WAS YOUR SAVIOUR’S PLACE OF:3) RISING (45-46)I.H. Marshall (in the New Bible Commentary): Only the one who had prayed remained strong during the next few hours.--Luke 23:34a … And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”--Luke 23:46 … Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” And having said this he breathed his last.--
