Luke 24:1-53 – Ye Are Witnesses of These Things – 0878A
Description
Rev. Cyril A. Stevens – Sermon 0878A recorded on April 22, 1984 teaching from Luke 24:1-53 – Ye Are Witnesses of These Things.
Pastor Cyril A. Stevens draws from Luke 24 to emphasize the certainty and implications of Christ’s resurrection, urging listeners to move beyond simply knowing about Jesus to truly knowing him as Lord and Savior. A central theme is that love is stronger than death, exemplified by the devoted women who visited the empty tomb, demonstrating a tender, persistent love for Jesus even in death. Stevens highlights that although current believers were not present for the crucifixion or resurrection, they are witnesses to this truth today because Christ laid down his life and took it up again, conquering death, which is Satan’s ultimate weapon. Ultimately, Pastor Stevens implores the audience not to seek Jesus among the dead or treat religious sites as mere shrines, but instead to trust in a risen Savior who offers everlasting life, peace, and rest to those who come to Him.
