New Creation, Part 3, Jesus’ Resurrected Body
Sermon Scripture: Luke 24:36-43 (NRSV)
Jesus says, “Look at my hands and feet and see that it’s me. Touch and see.” He eats in front of the disciples and even mentions that he isn’t a ghost. There is a clear attempt to make sure the reader of the gospel knows that Jesus appeared to the disciples in a physical body.
The resurrected Christ is the same person as the historical Jesus. The One who conquered sin and death through death and resurrection is the same as the one who performed miracles, cared for the poor, and loved the sinner.
While it may seem obvious, the truth is that we tend to live out our lives of faith emphasizing the eternal Christ while sometimes ignoring the historical Jesus. This theological mistake affects how we live!
