Luke 24. An implication of the resurrection. Jesus is Alive!!
He is risen (v5, 6) , ascended (v51) , exalted and by his Spirit (v49; Acts 2) he is living among us and is in us, if we have received him. (John1v13; 14v15-18)
Let's pray for those we meet today and those with whom we will have conversations about this implication – Jesus is alive.
He is alive - so what? The Living Saviour is looking down on the world, he is Lord and he has it all covered.
He is alive – so what? Those who trust him really can have sins forgiven. We can be reconciled to God, we can have peace with God - lives can be changed because sin causes so many problems!
He is alive – so what? Death has been defeated and eternal life is guaranteed. So let's say with Job my redeemer lives...Job19.25-27. Let’s rejoice that we will be raised up on the last day. Jn6.40
