The light of the world had gone out, and without Christ, the earth was blackness and cold as winter. While He lay in the tomb, His name was on the lips of those who had placed their hopes in Him, and the streets were filled with mourning. However, when our LORD erupted from the tomb, New Life burst from the dead earth glorified! The heavy stone and the Roman guard of one hundred soldiers were powerless to confine the Lord of Life within the stone-cold crypt. As Christians contemplate the death and resurrection of our LORD and Saviour, Jesus Christ, we believe that one day soon, the death, darkness and coldness of winter will end. Because Jesus lives, we can face tomorrow.
