The Reality of Jesus' Resurrection, The Second Sunday of Easter
An essential part of absorbing the implications of Jesus’ Resurrection is to understand that it is a solid historical fact. Things that happened two thousand years ago can get shrouded in myth and legend. But Jesus’ Resurrection was an event of such immense importance that great care was taken to record the details. Not just the Gospel writers but also historians of the era put the pieces together for us so that we can be sure. Jesus left His grave alive. Resurrection is a reality.
The first and second hymn is LSB 463, “Christ the Lord is Risen Today, Alleluia”. The third and fourth hymn is LSB 461, “I Know that My Redeemer Lives”. If you have a Lutheran Service Book Hymnal at home, please sing along.
