Long lines of visitors from all over the world wait patiently day after day to visit Lenin’s Tomb and view his embalmed body. Although he died in 1924, the corpse of that Communist leader has seemingly suffered no decomposition. It looks deceptively lifelike. And its appearance is indeed deceptive. Skillful artists monitor the preserved corpse, artificially coloring its face and using wax to fill in any lines or the smallest spot of decay.
People also regularly visit Jerusalem to see the place where Jesus died and was buried. But there’s a striking contrast - there is NO body of the crucified Christ anywhere! There is one rock-hewn tomb, where the nail-scarred, spear-driven, thorn-crowned corpse of Christ was laid. However when resurrected by the power of God His Father, the Savior left His grave clothes behind when He emerged from the tomb, like a butterfly abandoning its cocoon.
Tonight, the Discovery Channel is featuring a documentary on "The Lost Tomb of Jesus". A controversial segment that claims they have found the tomb of Jesus and His family. Supporting the fictional Dan Brown novel -"The DaVinci Code" - by suggesting our Lord was married to Mary Magdalene and had children.
Over 2000 years ago Satan and his minions were defeated because of Jesus' atoning death and the empty tomb. (1 Cor. 15: 20-22) Today, Satan seeks to spin the Greatest Story Ever Told and twist it into The Greatest Lie Ever Told. Jesus IS alive! His empty tomb guarantees our full salvation and the promise of a peaceful eternal life.
Don't be deceived. Don't let Satan use the instrument of the Discovery Channel this evening to rip away your hopes, your promises and your faith. Do not be shaken, "Instead, continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Glory belongs to him both now and on that eternal day!" (2 Peter: 3:18)
