Message from Pastor Eric – April
Christian Life After Easter
“Then go quickly and ten his disciples, ‘He has been raised from the death, and indeed, he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him.
This is my message for you. “Matthew 28:7
The biblical text above is the angel’s message to “Mary Magdalene and the other Mary “l when they went “the first day of the week” to see the tomb where Jesus had been buried. This message is highly significant not just because it entails the message of the resurrection in the form of a third-person responsibility/action -Jesus’ resurrection here is the act of the Father (He has been raised)- but because the deferred of the public appearance of the resurrected2 because a matter of location. The risen Jesus wants to see his disciples in Galilee, not any other place.
