Today we are going to look at some of
the ways God’s power was demonstrated through Jesus crucifixion.
As we read through these passages, look
for ways that God’s power is evident.
What evidence of God’s
power do we see in this passage?
God raised Jesus from the dead and seated Him at His right
hand in Heaven.
Jesus was actually dead.
Not only did God raise
Jesus from the dead, he did so according to the plan which he had established
before time started.
What does this kind of prophesy tell us about God’s
power?
The vail of the temple
separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place. It was an elaborately woven
fabric of 72 twisted plaits of 24 threads each. It was 60 feet high and 30 feet
wide. There would have been priests in the temple, engaging in their duties
when the veil was torn.
Obviously ripping a 60
foot tall curtain would have been awesome to see, but that was only a tiny
representation of what was actually happening.
What do these verses in
Hebrews tell us that the curtain ripping represented?
Why were these resurrections important?
Today we have talked
about some of the ways that God showed Himself to be the ultimate power of the
universe through the cross.
How does knowing about all this power impact you?
How does God’s power over death make you feel about
your own death?
How does God’s ability to record prophesy about Jesus
death, make you feel about the prophesy of what is yet to come?
