I wish you and your loved ones a blessed resurrection Sabbath tomorrow. Here are some edifying quotations to meditate on as we reflect on the empty tomb and commemorate the living Immanuel:

“God fits our souls here to possess a glorious body after; and he will fit the body for a glorious soul.” – Richard Sibbes

“The resurrection of Christ, as the evidence of the sacrifice of His death being accepted, and of the validity of all His claims, is a much more decisive proof of the security of all who trust in Him than His death could be.” –Charles Hodge

“Everything antecedent in the incarnate life of our Lord moves towards the resurrection and everything subsequent rests upon it and is conditioned by it.”  – John Murray
