Jesus of Nazareth’s death is not the final chapter. As the firstborn of the new creation (Col. 1:15, 18) and heir of all things (Heb. 1:2), he demonstrates that death is not humanity’s end. Though death remains a harsh and enigmatic reality, Christ’s resurrection reveals that life endures beyond the grave. God’s boundless love transcends death, stripping it of its power through Jesus’ promise of eternal life. On Easter Sunday, Christians rejoice in this unyielding life—the life of Jesus—celebrating the hope and renewal that his resurrection brings to all.

Three days after his crucifixion, two women among Jesus’ followers discover the tomb open, its stone rolled away, and his body missing. An angelic figure proclaims that Jesus has risen and instructs them to inform the others, saying he is alive and will meet his disciples in Galilee. Jesus appears to his followers, displaying his wounds and inviting them to touch his resurrected body. In Luke’s account, he casually asks for food, eats fish with them, and converses as a living, breathing person (Luke 24:41-43). As the pioneer of new creation, Jesus empowers his disciples with the same divine spirit, sending them to spread the gospel of resurrection and God’s eternal love. On Easter Sunday, Christians exult in this truth: Jesus is risen, ushering in a new creation where hope triumphs!
