Luke 24:1-12
This sermon focuses on the resurrection of Jesus Christ as the climax of Luke’s gospel and the foundation of Christian faith. The resurrection is presented as an unshakable historical fact demonstrated through Jesus’ honorable burial, the empty tomb, His appearances, the rise of Christianity, and the change in tradition to gathering on Sunday. The resurrection also provides believers with an unshakable living hope, as expressed in 1 Peter 1:3-4, offering the promise of resurrection life in the new heavens and earth with Jesus. Finally, the resurrection gives believers an unshakable everyday purpose to live faithfully, abound in the work of the Lord, and share the good news with others, following the example of the faithful women at the tomb.
