The Garden Tomb
After Jesus Christ died upon the cross, His heartbroken followers placed His body inside a garden tomb in an undisclosed location. They lovingly anointed His body with precious oils and wrapped Him in linen clothes. Then, with great sadness, they sealed the tomb and left. But Jesus Christ was not yet done with His miraculous work. On the third day, the tomb was found empty. Imagine the joy felt by His followers when they saw their dear teacher, leader, master, and friend alive. Here was their long-prophesied Messiah and Savior, a glorious resurrected being. It is the same joy available to you when you “believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name” (John 20:31).
