Matthew 28.1-15

There was nothing that Satan or his demons could do to prevent the Resurrection from happening. What must have seemed to be the ultimate victory on Friday now could only be seen as a moment in time, for the open, empty tomb of Jesus signified that the battle was over and Christ had won the victory for Adam’s fallen seed, for YOU and ME!

For a few brief minutes, I want us to think about a few of the characters that were involved in the scenes of the morning found in the biblical account and how they responded to the Resurrection.
