April 20, 2025 | Holy Week: Finding Security in the Resurrection | Matthew 27:62-28:10
Life in biblical times was not easy. The Jewish people were longing for a Messiah—someone who would overthrow their Roman oppressors and restore the kingdom of Israel. On Palm Sunday, Jesus entered Jerusalem riding a donkey. Crowds welcomed Him like a king, laying down their cloaks and waving palm branches while shouting, “Save us!” Yet others stood by asking, “Who is this?”
Jesus came as the King who would usher in God’s kingdom on earth. But by Friday, He had been crucified. What happened to the King who arrived with such celebration?
Then, on Easter Sunday, the unthinkable happened—Jesus rose from the dead.
What does it all mean?
Today we talk about finding security in the resurrection.
