Do you remember anything at all about Geometry?
Does the term "proof" come to mind?
You know, something like this (the angle sum theorem):
Since angle a, angle b, and angle c make a straight line,
angle a + angle b + angle c = 180 degrees
Since alternate interior angles are equal, angle a = angle x and angle b = angle y
Therefore, angle x + angle y + angle c = 180 degrees
Well, in Geometry, you use a series of proofs to get from a starting point to a conclusion.
This Sunday, we'll be looking at a different set of "proofs" to show that Jesus rose from the dead. Our scripture passages will be Matthew 27:62-66, Matthew 28:5-8, and Luke 24:13-16,32-33,35.
Simply put, we'll explore the proof of a guarded tomb, the proof of an empty tomb, and the proof of eyewitness accounts.
The goal for Sunday is to give you the ammunition you need to answer this question from non-believers: "What proof do you have that Jesus really rose from the dead?"
If you'll be out of town visiting family for Easter, I pray for your safe travels. But if you're in town, I hope to see you Sunday morning at 9:50 a.m. If you get there earlier, you can partake of the refreshments and fellowship in the choir room from 9:20 to 9:50.
Finish Friday strong. Enjoy Saturday with your family. See you Sunday!
Loyally yours,
Darren Bayne
