  1. Who will roll away the stone?Mark 16.1-7 Doug Brownaudio, pdf, and power point available @ karenvineyard.org

  2. Sabbath was the chance to celebrate time in a different mode. Sabbath was the day when human time and God’s time met. Sabbath was to time what the Temple was to space. N.T. Wright

  3. I tell you that something greater than the temple is here . Matthew 12.6

  4. Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” But the temple he had spoken of was his body. John 2.19-21

  5. “ . . . on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?”But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.” Mark 16.3-6

  6. Jesus is the place where God’s world and our world meet. He is the place where God’s space and our space, where God’s time and our time meet.

  7. The message of the resurrection is that this present world matters. The early Christian belief in the resurrection of Jesus was a belief about something that actually happened within this real world, not simply a belief about a transcendent dimension, a spiritual or otherworldly reality that leaves this world behind. N.T. Wright

  8. “The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of God, as the waters cover the sea.” Habakkuk 2.14

  9. So Jesus didn’t come to teach people “how to get to heaven”. Or that God was in heaven and at death they could leave “earth” behind and go to be with him there. Rather the point of Jesus using the phrase the “kingdom of heaven” or “kingdom of God” is to say that God is in charge on earth. N.T. Wright

  10. The gospels are not about “how Jesus turned out to be God”. They are about how God became king on earth as in heaven.

  11. “Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, as well as he cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’s head. The cloth was folded up by itself, separate from the linen.” John 20.6-7
