Day One death, day three Resurrection!
These are generally the two emphasis points of the Easter story, but day two is the one that is over looked and yet it is essential to understand all three together, because without it many believers today are missing the points later on in the New Testament teaching?
Jesus birth, death and resurrection are key to understanding why He had to die, fulfilling the Jewish Laws for us as the final sacrifice for sin and His rising allows us to enter into the promises of Eternal Life, but we are now in the New Life!
Much of the work of Jesus was done in the grave of reconciling Jews and Gentiles of gathering the captives in His train and all the while the world was trying to undermine these events with lies to dispute the truth, which it continues to do to this day!
Isaiah 26:19, 60:1, 61:1, Luke 4:18, John 5:25, 12:46, Ephesians 5:14, Colossians 1:13.
