The person who is not satisfied with Christ will inevitably seek satisfaction somewhere else, but nothing else will satisfy. Nothing on earth was meant to satisfy except Christ.
Only a renewed mind can live a life in the Lord; but an untransformed life proves the mind is not yet renewed. Let our minds be continually filled with the living spring of truth from our Lord.
The empty tomb is said to be the greatest evidence of Jesus’ resurrection. The Jews could have easily disproven the resurrection by producing His body, but they could not.
If Jesus be our Passover, we must clean out the old leaven of sin and live holy lives. All who refuse to trust and obey Christ will one day bitterly grieve the shocking realization that they spurned and wanted dead the very God who stands as Judge over them.
