As I prepare for Resurrection Sunday, I have been look at some old messages. Here are some themes I have used to mark the Resurrection.
2000 What Difference Does Easter Make? (Matthew 28:1-7)
2002 Meeting Jesus Outside an Empty Tomb (John 20:1-18)
Mary Magdalene
2003 Resurrection as the Central Message of the Early Church (Selections from Acts)
2004 Transformed by the Resurrection (Mary, John, Thomas and Peter)
2005 Heavenly Words -- What an Angel Says to You Today (Matthew 28:1-10)
2005 Why I Believe (John 20)
speaking to skeptics, believers with doubts and believers with a mission
2006 Resurrection Significance -- A Sermon in Stereo (Ephesians 1:15-23 and 1 Peter 1:3-6)
2007 Dealing with Doubt -- Luke 24:1-35
2008 Is the Resurrection Believable? (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
I found a statistic in a message from a couple of years ago that stated that 75% of nonChristians claim to believer the Biblical account of the resurrection. That may be the most troubling polling data I have ever seen.
My goal on this day is to shake folks free of a polite assent to the resurrection. It happened and it changes EVERYTHING!

Can we really be certain that Paul was right when he said that Jesus 'became a life-giving spirit'?

I enjoyed reading some of your resurrection debates on your blog.
I appreciate that you recognize that the resurrection question is a really big deal upon which everything hinges.
May the truth find as you search for it.
