空墳墓/An Empty Tomb
主耶穌基督因他正是他所聲稱的那一位，
所以他能勝過死亡權勢，
如同他對十二門徒所說的那樣，他三天後會復活，
如果他未曾復活，而是有人有陰謀捏造的故事，
通常這世界上的人陰謀是為了有利可圖，
當時的門徒與信徒們編故事圖什麼呢？
耶穌死了，若要謀反，對羅馬帝國的革命已暫時沒戲唱了，
不如日子回歸平淡，做漁夫的彼得回去做漁夫，
做醫生的路加回去做醫生，做稅吏的馬太繼續收稅，
大家尚可安居樂業，頤養天年，
范得著冒著被人追殺的生命危險，
到死都要為一個死人做見證嗎？
如果主耶穌基督的復活是假的，
而且做這個假見證會遭到殺身之禍，你會做嗎？
若不是親眼見證那空墳墓，若不是親身經歷主復活後的現身，
不會不怕死的威脅都要做見證說實話。
就像我們生活中所有的親身經歷一樣，我們會侃侃而談，
若有人認為是我們的幻覺而不相信，我們會說是真的啊！
絕不會因為別人不相信，而否認自己的親身經歷。
“安息日將盡，七日的頭一日，天快亮的時候，
抹大拉的馬利亞和那個馬利亞來看墳墓。
忽然，地大震動；因為有主的使者從天上下來，
把石頭滾開，坐在上面。 他的相貌如同閃電，衣服潔白如雪。
看守的人就因他嚇得渾身亂戰，甚至和死人一樣。
天使對婦女說：「不要害怕！我知道你們是尋找那釘十字架的耶穌。
他不在這裏，照他所說的，已經復活了。
你們來看安放主的地方。快去告訴他的門徒，
說他從死裏復活了，並且在你們以先往加利利去，
在那裏你們要見他。看哪，我已經告訴你們了。」
婦女們就急忙離開墳墓，
又害怕，又大大地歡喜，跑去要報給他的門徒。
忽然，耶穌遇見她們，說：「願你們平安！」
她們就上前抱住他的腳拜他。
耶穌對她們說：「不要害怕！你們去告訴我的弟兄，
叫他們往加利利去，在那裏必見我。」
她們去的時候，看守的兵有幾個進城去，
將所經歷的事都報給祭司長。 祭司長和長老聚集商議，
就拿許多銀錢給兵丁，說：「你們要這樣說：
『夜間我們睡覺的時候，他的門徒來，把他偷去了。』
倘若這話被巡撫聽見，有我們勸他，保你們無事。」
兵丁受了銀錢，就照所囑咐他們的去行。
這話就傳說在猶太人中間，直到今日。
十一個門徒往 加利利 去，到了耶穌約定的山上。
他們見了耶穌就拜他，然而還有人疑惑。
耶穌進前來，對他們說：「天上地下所有的權柄都賜給我了。
所以，你們要去，使萬民作我的門徒，
奉父、子、聖靈的名給他們施洗 。
凡我所吩咐你們的，都教訓他們遵守，
我就常與你們同在，直到世界的末了。」”
馬太福音 28:1-20 CUNP-神
Since the Lord Jesus Christ is who he claimed to be,
So he could prevail the power of death.
Just as he had told the twelve disciples,
he will be resurrected in three days after the crucifixion.
If he has not been resurrected,
and it’s all a conspiracy to fabricate the story.
But usually people in this world conspire for profit,
What tangible profits would the disciples
and believers gain by making up the story for?
Even if they still want to rebel,
having a revolution against the Roman Empire,
but the plan should temporarily cease because Jesus was dead.
Life back to the normal days before they were called
to follow Jesus is much safer.
As a fisherman, Peter, went back to be a fisherman,
Luke, a doctor, went back to be a doctor,
and Matthew, a tax collector, continued to collect taxes.
Everyone could just still work, live in peace and enjoy their lives.
No need to risk their lives to be pursued and to be killed.
Why do they have to testify for a dead person even to death?
If the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ is false,
and if you do this false testimony, you will be killed. Will you do it?
If it’s not because they had witnessed the empty tomb,
if it’s not that they had personally experienced the appearance
of the Lord after his resurrection,
they wouldn’t have faced the threat of death with no fear,
but still wanted to testify and told the truth.
Like all our personal life experiences, we will talk freely.
If someone thinks it is our illusion and does not believe it,
we will say it is true!
We will never deny our own personal experience
just because others don't believe it.
“Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week,
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.
And behold, there was a great earthquake,
for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven
and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it.
His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.
And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men.
But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid,
for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
He is not here, for he has risen, as he said.
Come, see the place where he lay.
Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead,
and behold, he is going before you to Galilee;
there you will see him. See, I have told you.”
So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy,
and ran to tell his disciples.
And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!”
And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him.
Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid;
go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
While they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city
and told the chief priests all that had taken place.
And when they had assembled with the elders and taken counsel,
they gave a sufficient sum of money to the soldiers and said,
“Tell people, ‘His disciples came by night and stole him away
while we were asleep.’ And if this comes to the governor’s ears,
we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.”
So they took the money and did as they were directed.
And this story has been spread among the Jews to this day.
Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee,
to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them.
And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted.
And Jesus came and said to them,
“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of
the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.
And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.””
Matthew 28:1-20 ESV
