Easter Day

Jeremiah 31: 1-6,  Acts 10: 34-43,  John 20: 1-18

I have a friend from early school days whom I still see from time to time.  She is a devout and practicing Jew – and matters related to Jewish and Christian faith often come into conversations.

I remember one such conversation several years ago – and at one point she said to me: “But surely, Louis, you do not believe in a resuscitated corpse.”  I immediately replied, “No of course not….  But neither does the Christian faith.  My friend replied: “Well that is the way at least some Christians speak of the Resurrection”.
