The empty tomb so full of assurance

He is not here he is risen. Words spoken as the bewildered women looked on, and the space, with just the neatly folded grave clothes. At the time they did not know what to make of it.
Yet here the empty tomb shows us that Jesus is risen indeed, and that because his tomb is empty, so shall the graves of all of his people be on the last great glorious day. There is no if or maybe, but divine certainty from the one who said I am the resurrection. Death swallowed up in victory.
