Podcasts about Empty tomb

Preached 04-20-25 Rev. Elbert McGowan, Jr. Matthew 27:62-28:15

The enemy can't stop Jesus. So he makes you believe the lie it's not worth showing up and living sold out for Jesus. He makes you feel alone and dismisses the Work God is doing so you won't press on to victory.

No matter who you are or what you believe in, there's one thing that's certain: death. To deal with this subject, we must look at the One who came to undo it, specifically the fact of Jesus' death and the reality of the empty tomb.

What Distinguishes Christianity From The False Religions Of The World? An Empty Tomb.

There was a lot of confusion happening on the first Easter morning. The resurrection had happened but it was neither expected nor accepted by all at first. Mary Magdalene ran to tell the disciples what she saw, and they ran to check out her report. What they saw was compelling evidence of a resurrection, but only one of them really connected all the dots. Let's see why.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Jim from his wife, Christy Davis-Theis, from Chaska, MN. Thank you for your generosity and partnership in Project 23. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 16:1-4: And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?” And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back—it was very large. — Mark 16:1-4 Before dawn, grief still weighed heavily. Three women rose in the quiet hour to tend to a lifeless body. They carried spices—small jars of costly ointment—and hearts full of sorrow. But when they arrived at the tomb, they found the impossible: the stone, the heavy barrier, already moved. No guard, just an empty entrance waiting for them. At sunrise, the world seemed unchanged on the outside, yet everything was different. Death had been defeated and overcome. The women came expecting to mourn—but they encountered a mystery that would change history. Their courage to go early, their devotion to care for their Lord, set the stage for joy. And their questions—“Who will roll away the stone?”—became the first notes in the great song of resurrection. Before you rush into your day, pause this morning and thank Jesus for the new beginning His resurrection brings. Then, identify one “stone” in your life—a worry, a habit, or a fear—that needs rolling away. Write it down in your journal. Share it in the comments below. Pray and hand it to Jesus. Trust him to move it and remove it, just as he has removed your sin. And then consider the fact that God can do anything at any time—from defeating sin to moving large stones. What's to say he won't move the immovable stone you are thinking about today? #EmptyTomb #Mark16 #NewBeginnings ASK THIS: What burdens am I carrying into this new day? How can I invite Jesus to remove the stones blocking my hope? Who in my life needs to hear that the tomb is empty? What devotion will I offer Jesus today in response to His rising? DO THIS: Before you rush into your day, pause at sunrise and thank Jesus for the new beginning His resurrection brings. PRAY THIS: Lord, thank you that you roll away every obstacle that keeps me from you. Meet me at the break of dawn with your life and light. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Resurrection Power."

The story of the empty tomb is part crime scene, part scandal, but also fully truth-filled evidence of our faith's foundation and the miraculous capstone of God's redemptive plan. But in all of that, there are some key things we need to wrestle with as believers…

In this compelling opening episode, host, Dr. D. A. Sherron, sits down with Bishop Andy C. Lewter to examine one of history's most consequential claims: the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Through rigorous historical analysis and thoughtful theological reflection, they explore what the earliest sources tell us about that pivotal Easter morning and its earth-shattering aftermath.From the scattered testimonies of frightened disciples to the bold proclamation that would eventually reshape the ancient world, this episode investigates the evidence, the witnesses, and the revolutionary implications of Christianity's central claim. Bishop Lewter brings both scholarly rigor and pastoral insight to questions that have captivated believers and skeptics alike for two millennia.

Where did Jesus go after the cross—was it hell or something else? What happened when the graves opened in Jerusalem? And does God still hear the prayers of the unsaved? Join Jim Scudder as he answers these fascinating Bible questions in Part 5 of his series, Answers.

The gospel has always been a story of war; a cosmic battle for dominion, bloodlines, and the soul of mankind. In this revealing message, Zach exposes Satan's strategy, unpacks the legal victory of the cross and resurrection, and calls believers to reclaim their God-given authority. This isn't just a salvation story—it's a kingdom call to rise, rule, and crush the serpent's head.

The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ stand as the most profound events in human history—the hinge point upon which everything turns. When examining these world-changing moments, we discover both the raw humanity of those who witnessed them and the divine power that transformed their lives forever.The narrative brings us face-to-face with Joseph of Arimathea, a secret disciple who kept his faith hidden until the critical moment when courage was required. As a respected member of the Sanhedrin council, Joseph risked everything—reputation, position, and possibly his life—to approach Pilate directly and request Jesus's body. His journey from secret believer to public disciple mirrors the struggle many Christians face today in workplaces and social circles where faith expression carries consequences.What makes the resurrection account so compelling is the meticulous detail preserved by eyewitnesses. From the Roman centurion who professionally verified Jesus's death to the women who observed exactly where the body was laid, the narrative eliminates any possibility of confusion or substitution. These same women, arriving at dawn with burial spices (clearly not expecting resurrection), discovered the seemingly immovable stone already rolled away—a powerful reminder that God specializes in removing obstacles we consider insurmountable.The variations between the four Gospel accounts, rather than undermining credibility, actually strengthen it. Real eyewitness testimony from different perspectives rarely aligns perfectly, especially during chaotic, emotional events unfolding over several hours. Most telling is the unanimous agreement that women discovered the empty tomb first—a detail no fabricator in first-century Jewish culture would include given the inadmissibility of female testimony.Beyond historical validation, the resurrection offers profound hope for our daily struggles. When we face situations that leave us terrified and confused, just as the first witnesses were, we can trust that God's purposes will ultimately become clear. The resurrection isn't just something that happened—it's something that happens, transforming our darkest moments with the assurance that death, despair, and impossibility have been conquered once and for all.Support the showThank you for listening!!

We've come a long way from the Babe in the Manger! From the Stable, to the Cross, and then to the Empty Tomb, the gospel demands that we keep opening our minds to try to understand who Jesus is. If we can also see Him as the Lamb on the throne of Heaven, executing judgment, then we have something like a full picture. It's a Christ that few recognize. But after all, Heaven - not Bethlehem - is His "hometown." We're in Revelation 6.

In this Resurrection Sunday sermon, Pastor Rob McCoy celebrates the transformative power of Jesus' resurrection, drawing from 1 Corinthians 15 to proclaim the gospel's victory over sin and death. Reflecting on the brutal cost of the cross and the hope of the empty tomb, Pastor Rob connects the resurrection's impact to personal stories of salvation, cultural lies, and the enduring truth of Christ's sacrifice. He challenges listeners to embrace Jesus as Savior, emphasizing that the cross and tomb, once symbols of death, now represent hope and eternal life, urging a public profession of faith through baptism to mark this life-changing transformation.Verse References: 1 Corinthians 15:1-11, 1 Corinthians 15:54-57Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!And you can always head over to our website for any general information!https://godspeak.comPrayer/NeedsIf you have any needs, or have a willingness to be used to meet various need in the body, please email info@godspeak.com.

There are three special days that give Christianity center stage around the world: Christmas Day points to a cradle, Good Friday points to a cross, and Easter points to a cave. Without Easter, the other two days would be meaningless.  Our world is filled with thousands of religions, but only four are built on personalities rather than philosophies. Judaism's Abraham, Buddhism's Buddha, and Islam's Mohammed all died and remain dead. But Jesus Christ did something no other religious leader has done; He rose from the dead. Christianity traces its beginning to one single event—the resurrection. Mark 16:1–8 tells us about that first Easter morning, when grieving women discovered the news that would change human history: "He has risen! He is not here." That empty tomb gives us hope for our lives now and for eternity. 

This Easter, we're following the journey of Jesus on the path that changed everything.What if the road to the cross was really the way to life? From betrayal to sacrifice, from the grave to victory, Jesus walked a path that transformed history—and our future.#Easter #easter2025 #Jesus ---If you'd like to view our message notes, click here.If you're new to Hope or looking to get connected, click here.If you've just made a decision for Christ, please respond here.To support this ministry financially to help us continue to love people where they are and encourage them to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ, click here.Stay Connected with Hope:WebsiteHope Community Church FacebookHope Community Church InstagramHope Community Church XHope Community Church YouTube

Today, we are slowing down to focus on what is most important — the cross and the empty tomb. As believers, Holy Week is not just a date on the calendar — it's the very center of our faith. So today, we want to journey together from Palm Sunday to Good Friday to Easter Sunday, reflecting deeply on what these days truly mean for us.

The stark contrast between our Easter and Christmas celebrations reveals a troubling disconnect between our theology and our practice. Why does the birth of Christ receive months of anticipation, elaborate decorations, and significant financial investment, while the resurrection—the very foundation of our faith—often feels like a mere footnote in the Christian calendar?Don't forget to check out the Book of The Week: The Eternal Optimist: It's Never Too Late by Matt Drinkhahn2025 Reclaiming the Wild Men's RetreatDisconnect from the digital world and reconnect with your fellow brothers in Christ around a crackling campfire.
