Summary

Even though Jesus told his followers exactly what was going to happen, they were still shocked to find His tomb empty on Easter morning. What are we misinterpreting about events in the earth today? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the disciples’ misunderstanding at Jesus’ empty grave, the confusion present in the Church today, and three truths we can rely on when things get disorienting. He shares these foundational ideas: Jesus is unique, the grace and mercy of the gospel lead us to repentance, and we have been forgiven. Our culture is becoming increasingly deceptive, but God is moving like never before—and we can trust in Him!
