Today is the greatest of days. Greater than your birthday, wedding day, Christmas and the day your children were born. Greater than all of them.

The whole of creation waits for this day. History trembles in awe of this day. The effects of what happened on this day twenty centuries ago still echoe loud and clear. 

To consider that Jesus wasn't a man that died is simply foolishness. There are more facts, sources and witness reports to proove his existence and death than any other in that period. 

Jesus did live. Jesus did die.

But three days later, even though his tomb was under Roman guard with the entrance firmly blocked, He rose from the dead. The implications of this should blow your mind. If they don't, you haven't considered them properly.

Death was defeated. Surely this is worth giving some time and thought to!? 

The stone was rolled away. Daylight shines into the tomb revealing nothing. The guards lose all colour in their faces. It's completely empty. The believers run away gasping. Their King's promises did come true after all.
