Jesus Is Our "Light of the World"નમૂનો

Jesus is Alive!

On Thursday, Jesus was on trial. As Pilate questioned whether the man before him could be the Messiah, Jesus said that it was indeed true. Pilate responded with the question people still ask today: “What is truth?”

On Friday, the disciples and all of Jesus’ followers thought everything they believed to be true about Jesus ended with His death on the Cross.

And then came Sunday! When Mary Magdalene, Peter, and John went to Jesus’ tomb … it was empty! The stone had been rolled away, and no one was there.

After Peter and John left, not knowing what to believe, Mary lingered, weeping. She peeked inside again and noticed two angels seated where Jesus’ body had been. They asked, “Woman, why are you crying?” She replied, “They’ve taken my Lord away, and I don’t know where they’ve put Him.” Turning, she saw what she thought was the gardener—but when He said her name, she knew it was Jesus! He was alive!

From Easter Sunday over the next 40 days, Jesus appeared to His disciples and more than 500 people, telling them to share His message with people near and far, all the way to the ends of the earth.

Just as true as that first Easter Sunday, Jesus is still alive today … and forever! He declared in John 11:25, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die” (NIV). His victory over death means our own hope is secure.

The events of Easter week changed everything—death is not the end, but the beginning of eternal life in Christ. Because Jesus lives, we can face every challenge with confidence, knowing our story is part of His story of life-changing victory. We serve a living God who is ever present—bringing hope to every situation we face.
