When we think of a king, we don’t usually picture a man riding on a donkey, hanging on a cross, or lying in a tomb. Each of these images, however, represents a scene from Jesus’ life. In this message, Alistair Begg describes how these moments fulfilled prophecy and led to redemption from sin for all who believe. Even in His death and resurrection, the responses to Jesus were mixed—and the same remains true today. Unless God softens our hearts to see our sin and need of a Savior, we will only view Jesus as an unwelcome intruder.
1eNow on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that fthe stone had been taken away from the tomb. 2So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, gthe one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and hwe do not know where they have laid him.” 3iSo Peter went out with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb. 4Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5And stooping to look in, he saw jthe linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in. 6Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, 7and kthe face cloth, which had been on Jesus'1 head, not lying with the linen cloths but folded up in a place by itself. 8Then the other disciple, lwho had reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed; 9for as yet mthey did not understand the Scripture, nthat he must rise from the dead. 10Then the disciples went back to their homes.
