Hope in the Resurrection
Mark 16:1-8
Happy Resurrection Day!

The journey to hope in the resurrection
Life before hope   Mark 16:1-3
-Dead- consumed with death
   -they were bringing burial spices, covering up the stink
-Unsolved problems- “who will roll away the stone?”

Hope Discovered   Mark 16:4-5
-Supernatural intervention
-God speaks to us (prayer, Bible, people, circumstances)

Hope Explained   Mark 16:6-7
-Jesus is alive!
   -Jesus died and rose back to life

We must put all our hope in the resurrection!
We must trust in the supernatural power of Jesus Christ
-Jesus conquered death- no one has raised themselves!
-Forensic evidence says Jesus really died
-We are all born spiritually dead!
    The Bible says we are naturally bad
    We need a spiritual resurrection, can’t save ourselves!
-Are you still trusting in things that cannot provide real hope?

Are you still dressing up death with the burial spices of
        possessions, pleasure and power?
   Are you still trying to cover up the stink of your dead life?

We must trust the historical reality of Jesus Christ
-The overwhelming evidence demands a verdict
-Jesus of Nazareth who was crucified- a real person
-He is risen- His body was gone, was never found
-Eyewitnesses declare the tomb is empty- women, disciples

Our faith in Jesus must have a beginning
    -the moment we are born again spiritually
    -the moment we pass from death to life
    -the moment we are rescued from sin, death and hell

You can receive hope in Jesus Christ right now!
Admit you are a sinner

Believe Jesus died and rose again

Commit your lives to Jesus Christ
-Tell others
-Be baptized
-Obey Christ’s commands
    -A true follower of Christ wants to listen and obey Jesus
    -baptism doesn’t save you, prove you are saved!

Declare your hope in Jesus Christ now!
