Come and See His Empty Tomb #1 of 1

March 10, 2010
Every day the newspapers carry fresh obituaries...reminding us that one day our names will appear there as well. Death, that's everyone's unavoidable fate, the legacy of the first sin committed by Adam and Eve. But believers cling to the promise of Jesus, "I am the resurrection and the life...he that believes in me, though he may die, he shall live."

Death no longer has dominion over the one who follows Christ. When the tomb was found empty, death lost its power. In “The Vanishing Power of Death,” Pastor Lutzer considers the evidence for the resurrection of Christ and its impact on the disciples. From Mary weeping at the tomb, to Thomas' doubting, to Christ's counseling session with two discouraged disciples on the road to Emmaus, Pastor Lutzer shows readers that the experiences of the disciples are poignant and relevant for believers today. This is a book that is sure to invigorate your faith and make a lasting difference in the hands of a friend.

It is still a peaceful place, as pilgrims meditate on the great transaction that took place here in an ancient garden. Gethsemane lies on the Mount of Olives facing the Old City of Jerusalem. Jesus spent a night in agonized prayer here before being nailed to a cross outside the city wall. His task: to drink the cup of suffering for you and for me. What does this mean?

For some reason, many Christians believe their walk of faith should take them toward happiness, fulfillment, and prosperity, but the real legacy we inherit from our Master includes suffering. To walk where Jesus walked means walking with Him in Gethsemane. Here a decision was reached that made salvation possible for billions of believers yet to be born.

Small group meetings are very meaningful. But a long time ago there was one small group meeting that has no equal. Atop a high mountain, a glorified Jesus appeared along with Moses and Elijah in the presence of Peter, James and John. Now that's a memorable meeting. Today we will learn the significance of those who gathered that momentous day.

It was on a mountaintop, perhaps Israel's Mount Tabor. Jesus gave three of His disciples a blinding vision of the future. Here, Moses and Elijah appeared with Christ, symbolizing Jesus as the fulfillment of both the law and the prophets. God's voice thundered from the cloud, and the experience was so powerful that Peter wrote of it years later as being "on the Holy Mountain."

Some believers feel they have ruined their Christian lives by making agreements with Satan. Is this really possible? Can Satan bind a child of God? Can a Christian sell his or her soul to the devil? Today, some frank talk about the limits God has set on Satan's domain, and why the victory of Christ is complete, as we learn from Matthew chapter 12.

When you've set out to attack someone verbally, and then find yourself out-reasoned, all you may have left is pure rage. That was the case when the Pharisees accused Jesus of casting out demons using Satan's power. Jesus replied, "A house divided against itself cannot stand." That left them speechless, and plotting to destroy Him. Today we watch as the tide of opinion turns against Jesus.

In Old Testament times, people would connect sickness with personal sin. We now know that this connection is not always accurate, but Jesus used that common perception in healing a paralyzed man, beginning by forgiving his sins, and thus infuriating the nearby Jewish scribes. Today: a look at a great miracle, and the testimony it bears about the Son of God.
March 1, 2010
What exactly is a miracle? C.S. Lewis defined a miracle as "an interference with nature by a supernatural power." The miracles of Jesus were clear, public, long-lasting, and not in dispute, even by His enemies. Those miracles testify to His being the Son of God, and were performed not to amaze, but rather, to teach. In this message we take a look at one of those dramatic miracles.

Many people work their entire lives, hoping that someday they will have a higher calling than the drudgery of a daily job. When Jesus called Simon and Andrew away from their fishing nets, He said they'd become fishers of men. For these two, that higher calling meant leaving their boats behind. Do we hear the higher calling of Christ? Are we willing to pay the price to follow it?
February 25, 2010
Would you leave a lifetime job and head into the financial unknown if a man walked up to you and said, "Come and follow Me?" The call of Jesus to those who became his disciples was clear and unambiguous. And their response was to immediately leave their nets behind. Are we as quick to heed the call of Christ? If not, perhaps today's broadcast is tailor-made for each of us.
