Ken Howcroft. “Christ is Risen!”. Why have we come here
today? What are we looking for? If you are looking for irrefutable evidence
that Jesus has been raised which will enable you to say “Oh thank goodness for
that, now I know that it is true” and then enable you to walk out of this place
and then live the rest of your life just like you did before, you are going to
be sadly disappointed. The resurrection
is not something that you can argue people into believing. The early
Christians experienced it as true. The Easter message they pass on to us
is a call to follow Jesus, to say the sort of thing he said and do the sort of
thing he did; to be his body in the world. It is then that we shall know him.
We are called not to believe 600 impossible things and strange doctrines before
breakfast but to commit ourselves with all our weaknesses and failings to follow
Jesus as best we can, knowing that as we do he will be with us and that he is
risen indeed! A sermon for Easter Sunday, when two members of the congregation
were confirmed. The readings were 1 Corinthians 15:3-8 and Mark 16:1-8.
