Easter an Eye Opener by Fr Nelson Lobo

 Wondering Guru

More than the apostles the priests and pharisees believed that Jesus will rise so they kept soldiers to guard the tomb. If the apostles and women had really believed what Jesus had told them about rising on the third day they should have been present near the tomb with lighted candles and incense for adoration.  Three years with the Lord was still not enough. Sometimes even for us Christians so many years in the church and still we doubt or deny. We can do two things: either accept what the Bible says or reject it out rightly. If you accept you can't but share it. So first believe and then go and tell the world that Jesus is risen. A dead founder cannot save but a risen saviour who conquered death can save all. Happy Easter
