Easter Sunday's sermon is arriving in the morning despite my lack of blogging.
Notice that the context for Peter's comment, "we are witnesses" is just after he has had a dream that expands the good news to those who were considered "unclean." The power of the resurrection is not just God overcoming death, but God calling us to change. To live in response to the resurrection may call us to risk changing.
"Christ is Risen" may be the mantra we shout and proclaim on Easter Sunday, but it is more than a slogan. The tomb was empty. Christ has been raised from the dead. God is at work in the world. Even as Peter noted that they were witnesses to the resurrection, we are called to witness to the resurrection.
How does the power of the resurrection impact your daily living.
Peace,
Richard.
