Lk 24-questions- HE HAS RISEN
HE HAS RISEN!
Luke 24:1-35
Key Verse: 24:6
“He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with
you in Galilee:”
Today’s passage is about Jesus’ resurrection. It consists of two beautiful stories. First, Jesus’ resurrection is announced to women who went to the tomb. Their sorrow is turned to joy. Second, the Risen Christ meets two disciples on the road to Emmaus and shows them that he has risen. Their despair gives way to a living hope in the kingdom of God and they renew their mission. This old, old story of Jesus’ resurrection is for us. When we accept the resurrection in our hearts, Jesus gives us eternal life and the kingdom of God as our inheritance. All of our root problems are truly solved through the resurrection of Christ. The resurrection of Christ is the best news to anybody, no matter who he or she may be. May God help us to accept this good news in our hearts today.
