Life of Christ Lesson 186a: The Empty Grave Clothes! {How they PROVED the Resurrection}

Life of Christ Lesson 187b: Resurrecion Morning Conversations

The resurrected Lord Jesus' first two recorded conversations, which were with Mary Magdalene and the Galilean women, who (like Mary) had an encounter with the living Christ on Resurrection Sunday morning!

Life of Christ Lesson 187a: Firstfruits of the Resurrection!

Matthew 28:9, 10; Mark 16:10, 11; John 20:17, 18 The resurrection of the Lord Jesus is foundational to the Christian faith, for it undergirds the significance of other Biblical truths.  We discuss 8 of these foundational truths that are verified by His resurrection in this lesson. In this lesson, we learn of the first two recorded conversations Christ had following His resurrection.  One was with Mary Magdalene (who had just come to recognize Him at the end of Lesson #186), and the other was with a group of women who, like Mary, had an encounter with the living Lord on Resurrection Sunday morning.

Life of Christ Lesson 186b: Joy Comes in the Morning!

Mary Magdalene's blinding despair and confusion are turned to blessed joy unspeakable!   Think of this:  Mary wept for the wrong reason; she wept because she found the tomb empty.  The fact is, because the tomb WAS empty, she had every reason to be rejoicing!  THE SAME IS TRUE FOR YOU AND ME!   THIS will be one of your favorite lessons! It will fill your cup to over-flowing with joy, love, hope, and true comfort!

Life of Christ Lesson 186a: The Empty Grave Clothes! {How they PROVED the Resurrection}

You will want to hear this study to find out how the grave clothes appeared (and the folded head napkin) to give the women invited into the tomb by the angel and the Apostle John instant proof that Jesus had, indeed, RISEN FROM THE DEAD!   The grave clothes of the Lord Jesus are a very exciting subject.

Life of Christ Lesson 185b: Angelic and Ecstatic Activity Re: The Resurrection!

NOTE: Correction to this message - replace Katherine's words about "Thursday evening" with "Wednesday evening".  To understand this change, listen to podcast message entitled, "Passion Week Chronology". There was so much activity taking place at the Lord's EMPTY tomb early Sunday morning, it is difficult to get the sequence all put together, but it is explained very clearly in this study - and in a very exciting manner!  Bible critics who claim inconsistencies in the accounts of the four gospel authors are addressed and easily answered!   This is a fascinating lesson!  It is informative in many ways; even humorous in the way the differences between women and men are demonstrated!  Did you know it was a group of three women who first announced the full Gospel message - the death, burial, and resurrection!  To whom did they make that announcement?  The Apostles.  What was their reaction?  Disbelief.  In fact, they thought the women were full of delirious wild talk!  How ironic that when they publicly shared the Gospel on the Day of Pentecost, they were accused of being drunk!  We should not be surprised when people to whom we share the Good News of salvation in Christ think we are narrow-minded, non-woke, backwoods, ignorant fools - should we?  It has always been that way! Nonetheless, the Truth is the Truth and we sow the seed and leave the response of "the soil" to the Lord!
