Introduction:      

Have you ever been so confused you couldn’t see straight?  That happens when we either have too much on our plate or are pulled in too many directions.  Sometimes life can be confusing – I’m sure we’ve all been there. As fantastic as Christ’s resurrection was & still is, it confused a lot of people.  Last week – Thomas / some of 12…  Even though Jesus foretold it, people just weren’t ready for such a miracle.  That’s what today’s Gospel reading is all about.  We’ll look at Luke 24 again in a minute, but first, let’s talk about:

   • See the Forest for the Trees

2. Explain Gospel:

   • Luke 24:22-24 – “Some of our women didn’t see His body at the tomb.  They said angels told them He’s alive.  Others went and found the tomb as they said, but they didn’t see Jesus.”

   • Luke 24:25-26 – Jesus said, “How slow you are to believe all the prophets have spoken.  Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter His glory?”

   • Luke 24:27 – Beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained what was said in all the Scriptures about Him.  [Luke 24:22-27]

3. Are Our Eyes Open?

   • Hebrews 12:2 – Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith.
