The resurrection is the basis for hope in the Christian faith. The women who came to the tomb expected to find death. Instead, they met an angel who told them that Jesus had risen. Belief that Jesus rose is the key to the completion of his promise that we will rise also. Believers can experience the Ressurection power in their lives.
Go and tell is the command given to every man and woman who has discovered the power of Christ. It is through the sharing of this good new that we have the power to change the world. We must tell people that the resurrection brings regeneration into the lives of those who are spiritually dead, through the power of the Holy Spirit, bringing about a new birth,changing one from the inside out. This is the basis for the Church's witness to the world. Every believer can share this certainty with confidence.
Of course, a great controversy has always surrounded the Resurrection. Sometime we don't live like he rose with all power. We sometimes tend to not trust that he overcame the world and all of it's temptations, which in turns hinders our witness to the world. The way we live life is witness that he has risen with all power. Let us live like we believe He got up..
