Now what?

The illegal trial had been held. The crucifixion had been completed. The Body of Jesus had been buried. Yet on SONday morning . . . the Tomb was found empty! Jesus left word to meet Him in Galilee. (Matthew 28:10) So, now what?

Jesus gave His disciples clear instructions then and He still gives the today . . . to you and me: 

Then Jesus came to them. He said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. So you must go and make disciples of all nations. Baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And you can be sure that I am always with you, to the very end.” (Matthew 28:18-20)

Every Gospel ends with a version of this direct message. Acts 1:8 gives us the very same directive: 

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you. Then you will tell people about me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria. And you will even tell other people about me from one end of the earth to the other.” (Acts 1:8)

Holy Thursday New Testament (Passover) meal and perhaps foot washings . . . Good Friday communion services . . . Holy Saturday waiting . . . Resurrection Day celebrations and alleluias . . . now what?  

We go . .we tell . . .we teach . . .we LIVE . . .not in fear but in victory!
