Have you thought about a world without change? Have you imagined a world without decay? If nothing would perish, we would have a completely different reality. But it is not simple and easy even to guess what it would be. Can I speculate on existence beyond change and decay? All I know change and perish. All existence in this universe presupposes change and decay. If life would not change, how could anything grow? Without death, how could the earth accommodate all living things? In this world, change is necessary. Decay nourishes life. And death supports life. As for humans, almost all we do and what we are also presuppose death. Hunger is a sign of starvation. Yawning is a sign of exhaustion. In short, all life phenomena are the fights against death. All economic and political activities are also, ultimately speaking, the struggles against death. In a word, what we need in this life indicates what kind of danger of death exists. Can I ever imagine beyond change and decay?
But life without death begins tonight. This inconceivable reality becomes reality tonight. I do not know how this new reality works. But it is here now. This resurrection completely breaks off all old realities. This life that has defeated death shatters our ideas and concepts of all existences. Tonight, we witness a whole new reality of existence. I become speechless before the resurrection of Christ. Lord, what do I do now then? Lord, give me your word. Amen.
