The Resurrection of Jesus (A)
Jesus died on the afternoon of Good Friday. Joseph of Arimathaea and Nicodemus, after smearing his body with spiced ointment, wrapped it in a long linen cloth which they bound on with bandages. They wrapped the head of Jesus in a separate cloth. They laid his body in a tomb or burial cave which was in a nearby garden. They then rolled a large stone across its entrance.
The Resurrection of Jesus (B)
The evening of Easter Day
After Jesus was crucified on Good Friday, the disciples went into hiding because they were afraid that the Jewish rulers would do the same to them if they could lay their hands on them.
The forgiveness of sins
Today we’re going to jump ahead and think about one of the last parts of the Apostles’ Creed – the Forgiveness of Sins.
Sin is rebellion
We sin when we think or say or do anything wrong. All these wrong things help the Devil to build up his kingdom in this world, and when we sin we are really fighting against God just as the Devil does.
