EXPERIENCE THE LAND AND THE BOOK - MP3 05 - "A Place for Pondering and Praise"

Isaiah 53:3–6; 1 Corinthians 11:23–30; 15:4

Even without that spring weekend two thousand years ago, Jerusalem would be an incredible place. The central narrative of Scripture, both completed and yet to come, revolves around this land and this city. Yet only on one event does history swing on its hinge: the weekend when Jesus Christ suffered, died, and rose again, according to Scripture. And it happened in Jerusalem. It was in Jerusalem that the life of everyone who has turned to God was set apart. It’s at the cross of Jesus Christ that life begins. And when we talk about His resurrection, we move from today into eternity. The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ make up the most critical event in history — one worthy of our pause, our pondering, and our praise.
