This sermon examines the competing explanations for the empty tomb and shows how each one ultimately fails to account for the historical reality of what happened. It argues that the only explanation that truly holds is that Jesus died and physically rose from the grave, revealing God’s decisive action in history. The resurrection, therefore, is not just a fact to consider but a truth that reveals who Jesus is—the risen and reigning Son of God who has authority over all. The proper response is not indifference but worship and trust, as the risen Christ alone can reorder our lives, redirect our worship, and bring real hope and transformation.
