Grace Triumphs in Unexpected Ways
Luke 24:1-12, 36-43
Unsurprisingly, as it would also be in our day, the crucifixion of Jesus presented a major stumbling block to his messianic claims for the first followers of Christ. With historical credibility, Luke shows us in today’s text how the resurrection of Jesus relativizes all of the difficulties of this life in view of the certainty of our coming resurrection when the Lord returns for us.
