An Easter Sermon
Luke 24:1-10
Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came to the sepulcher, bringing the spices which they had prepared…


I. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE RESURRECTION.

1. If Jesus really died and then rose from the dead, materialism is completely overthrown.

2. Pantheism receives its death-blow with the establishment of Christ's resurrection.

3. All far-reaching scepticism is undermined.

II. THE FACT OF THE RESURRECTION. Conclusion:

1. We should live less in tombs. The grave is not half as large as we think. No life is buried there. Everything Christ-like is risen. Let life, not death, be our companion.

2. We must trust Christ implicitly. The living way has been set before us. He who is the life of the world has lighted its highway from the cradle, not to, but through the tomb.

(D. O. Clark.)
