Fusion: week of 4/16

FAMILY THEME: THE RISEN KING

Matthew 28:1-15

Everything in our faith hinges on the Resurrection.

1.  Jesus' Resurrection Was Verified by an Empty Tomb

     (Matthew 28:1-6)

     The only logical explanation for the empty tomb is the

     Resurrection of Jesus.

 
2.  Jesus' Resurrection Was Verified by His Physical Appearance

     (Matthew 28:7-10)

     Our confidence is bolstered by the many that saw

     and verified the bodily resurrection of Jesus.

 
3.  Jesus Rose From the Dead, Despite Those Who Claimed Otherwise

     (Matthew 28:11-15)

     The failure of the efforts to cover up the Resurrection 

     only serves to intensify its truth and power.
