Bv ROBERT fi. SHEPARD
• And he saith unto them, ”B*
| not affrighted; you seek Jesus of
j Nazareth, which was crucified,
! He is risen: He is not here”; Luke
I 16:6 Tliis was the message of
life, spoken to those sorrowful
women who came to the tomb
seeking the hody of their Savior
who had been crucified before
their eyes three days before. This
message of triumphant victory
was spoken by the angel of Truth
in fulfillment of ail that. Christ
had said before His crucifixion..
Translated, the message was say- 7
ing to all people, in all times:
Christ has risen because it wa*
impossible for the forces of evil
to hold Him, He has broken the
chains of vicious traditions and
lustful oppressions. He has rolled
away the stubborn stones of self
ish materiality, suppressions and
exploitation and has proclaimed
freedom and equality for all
mankind.
The message of Easter is hol
low and empty unless the power
of Christ’s triumph is sufficient
to cause us to arise above petty
hatreds and prejudices and to love
our neighbors as we love ourselves
The message of Easter is mean
ingless, unless, through regenera
tion. we have broken the bonds
of sin, sensuality and selfishness
with which we have been bound
and, with love, we can say with
the angel, "Christ. Is risen".
