He is Risen! Just as He said!

The Resurrection of Christ is the most important event of history. And by God's power and providence it is the most attested to event of history. Just as God affirmed Jesus' proclamation of "It is Finished!" with powerful acts, so did He affirm Jesus' promise of resurrection with provable authenticity.

This sermon uses the soldiers in Matthew's account to walk through the powerful witness and proof of Christ's resurrection.
