"But he said to them, 'Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.'" (Mark 16:6)
On Mars Hill when Paul spoke of the resurrection, "....some laughed in contempt...." The only "laughter" for me concerning the resurrection of Jesus Christ is the laughter of indescribable victory and joy!
The proclaiming of Jesus' death on a cross, His burial, and resurrection is right to this very hour, "....foolishness to those who are perishing -------------------------- but to us who are being saved----------- it is the power of God."
Father, in Jesus' Name, I thank You for, "the power of [You]."
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
Hebrews 12:2
