Early on the Sunday morning following the crucifixion of Jesus Christ women who were followers of Jesus discovered the stone rolled away from the entrance of the tomb where He was buried. The tomb was empty!
The resurrection of Jesus Christ on Easter Sunday is the cornerstone of the Christian faith, signifying the fulfillment of God’s plan for forgiveness of those separated from Him, and offering the promise of eternal life to those who believe in Him.
This momentous discovery was accompanied by the appearance of angels who proclaimed the astounding news: « He is not here; He has risen, just as He said » (Gospel according to Matthew 28:6).
Awestruck, these women rushed to share the incredible news with others. After that, “Jesus was seen by more than 500 of his followers” at one time as recorded in the Bible (1st letter to Corinthians 15:3-6).
Easter is a day of joy and hope, celebrating the victory of light over darkness, life over death, and the triumph of God’s love for humanity.
Easter Sunday serves as a profound reminder of the transformative power of faith and the enduring message of hope that resonates throughout the ages.
