MONDAY- 7^TH WEEK OF EASTER -B

I Reading: Acts 19:1-8: Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?

Gospel: John 16:29-33: Be brave: I have conquered the world.

The Resurrection and Its Effects Foretold, Jn 16:16-33

This is one the great passages on the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and it is one the glorious passages in all Scripture. It is one of those passages that lays out more than human could ever imagine. Jesus revealed and proclaimed the resurrection and its effects upon the world.

1. The resurrection exposes weak faith (v.29-32)

a. The disciples declared their faith

b. Jesus questioned

 their weak profession

c. The cross tasted and exposed their profession

2. The resurrection makes available true peace (v.33)

Thought: The peace and joy of God come only through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, only through his conquest and victory over sin and death.
