The Importance of the Empty Tomb

Why is the empty tomb so important? Why is the empty tomb key to our faith? Let's begin with John the Baptist. Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world. John testified Jesus will take away sin. How? We look at key verses which describe sin, and it's outcome. We discuss the reality of sin in this world. Next, we look at Leviticus 16 to see how sin was dealt with on the day of atonement. We study propitiation and expiation. Then, we see how the death of Christ paralleled the day of atonement. Then, we see the victory of the tomb. Justice is satisfied. Sin removed. The tomb is empty. Victory over death is obtained. Christ has put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. Have you put your faith in Him?
