Lesson Scripture: Luke 24:1-12
Bible Truth: We must live and proclaim Christ’s resurrection.
Timeline: Our present calendar and dating system is centered around the coming of Christ. The purpose of the BC / AD dating system was to make the birth of Jesus Christ the dividing point of world history. A.D. stands for Anno Domino which is Latin for “In the year of our Lord“. So “0 A.D.” is the year of Jesus’ birth. Therefore, if Jesus lived to be 33, he died around 33 A.D. Our lesson takes place around 30 A.D. (give or take a few years.) You can find representation of this time in the “Jesus’ Life and Ministry” section.
Need to know notes: The four Gospels together give the full spectrum of the life and times of Jesus on earth. Take time study what each gospel contributes to our knowledge of Him. According to the scriptures, Christ’s body was removed from the cross on the Day of Preperation (or the day before the Sabbath) a Friday Mark 15:42-43. Being that it was the Day of Preperation they did not want the bodies to remain on the crosses on the sabbath, because that sabbath was a high sabbath John 19:31. Our lesson can be recounted in all four Gospels begingin with Mathew 28:1; Mark 16:1; Luke 24:1; John 20:1. Need to know Notes By Trustee Richard Barnes
Our Lesson: He is Risen
Commentator: Deac. William Goss
We have Muhammad, Buddha and Jesus Christ, what do they all have in common? They are all spiritual teachers. My next question is how many of them arose from the dead? Only one, JESUS CHRIST, the others remained dead. This is the most important event in all human history, it proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus Christ is GOD.
