Do you really believe that Jesus was raised from the dead or do you still have doubts? You know that this is what you should believe, but are you still not certain? But then, do you believe that you will also be raised from the dead? You haven’t seen anyone raised from the grave yet, so it is hard to imagine it. Jesus raised Lazarus and He Himself left the tomb on Easter morning. But maybe this is only a story, you may think, or your mind tells you that this can’t be true. And even if you truly believe in the resurrection of the body, it will be very hard to convince others who don’t believe. Look what happens to the women who visited the empty tomb- “The women were Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James; the others who accompanied them also told this to the apostles, but their story seemed like nonsense, and they did not believe them.” To some of us, this may seem like nonsense; and to others it may seem that way also. Thus, it would be hard to convince them. However, we need to pray and ask for strong faith, because the resurrection can’t be explained, it can only be believed.
