Easter Sunday - The Empty Tomb Changes Everything

Looks like you need help. Looks like you need a savior. Yeah, that's what I was looking for. Thank you

You need a savior because you can't save yourself

You've got to be perfect to get into a perfect heaven. You need a savior who will present the perfect sacrifice

Take away all your sin and then allow you to be born again to have a brand new spirit

Which now you can go and meet the Lord in heaven hallelujah

Pastor Boyan Jansik and his team believe that the power of the Holy Spirit is already working in our hearts and minds

As you listen to today's teaching

Remember that you are deeply loved by God that you are surrounded by his grace and that he has a real hope and a future for you

I want to open up this morning and just read to you the account of the resurrection. It's in all four of the gospels

My favorite one happens to be in John and so we'll begin

John chapter 20 and verse 1

John 20 · chapter mention

Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene went to the tomb early

While it was still dark and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb

Then she ran and came to Simon Peter

And to the other disciple whom Jesus loved and said to them they have taken away the Lord out of the tomb

And we do not know where they have laid him

Peter therefore went out and the other disciple

And we're going to the tomb

So they both ran together and the other disciple who knows who the other disciple is

John the one writing this

It's just interesting because the Bible wasn't written by man

These were holy men that were inspired by the Holy Spirit and God spoke through them

But you still see their personality there. They're still the echo of what makes them them in their personality

Turns out John was a little bit of a

competitive guy

Because even though he leaves his name out of it

He makes sure to point out that when two bros went for a run

He beat Peter

And the other disciple I read Peter and came to the tomb first and there it is forever immortalized in the holy scriptures

I have friends like that

Maybe I'm your friend that's like that

And he's stooping down and looking in so the linen cloths lying there yet he did not go in

Then Simon Peter came

following him and

And went into the tomb and he saw the linen cloths lying there, you know

Driving in this morning

I was I was going over the message in my spirit and just recounting the story of the resurrection in my spirit

And I began to weep as I was driving

I was overwhelmed

I was overwhelmed because I thought of my relationship with the Lord

I became a Christian gave my life to Christ when I was 16

So it's been 34 years of walking with him

And then as I'm thinking of my relationship with the Lord 34 years

You

I was overwhelmed at how messy it was

Yes

Ups

Downs me crying out to the Lord for mercy him always being faithful and just to extend it

Him making a way where there didn't seem to be any way me falling him picking me back up

I have to say that because when you just hear me preach on Sunday you you get the highlight real

And you get me at my best

When I look back at 34 years my mother's sitting in the front row

She knows

And you know what God's not afraid of the mess

It's messy

He's been a lot lot better to me than I've been to him

I haven't always been faithful. He's always been faithful. I haven't always been consistent

He's always been consistent. I haven't always been strong in my love

He never wavered once in his love toward me. He'll never ever waver once in his love toward you

I felt like I had to say that again because there's people here this morning

And and you think of how messy your life has been and maybe you've made a commitment to the Lord

sometime in the past

And it's been ugly and it's been shit god loves the ugly he gets in the ugly

He loves the ugly so much that god came in the person of Jesus in the person of a man

To ugly earth

Left the perfection of heaven

He's not put off by the messiness and ugliness of your life 34 years

I didn't wasn't driving a wild lord. It's been a wild ride

You know and I let you use me to plant the church and you know lord

I always pray lord you know. I always pray. I'm so devoted lord

I think lord that you must call me past your bow in heaven. I think you use the appropriate I'm I'm quivering

I'm white knuckling that steering will go oh god

You're so good and thank you for the resurrection because you live

I will live also. I made a live right now when I will live forever

And you will live forever if you place your faith in Christ

hallelujah

Sam and Peter came following him and went into the tomb and he saw the linen cloths lying there and the handkerchief

Look at the details there and the handkerchief that had been around his head

Not lying with the linen cloths, but folded together in a place by itself

Why is that in the Bible to show that Jesus was so tidy that even at his resurrection

His cloths of linen worn one paw, but the napkin was distinct and put somewhere else

No, it's because in Hebrew tradition there was a sign

If you were a guest in another place if you were never ever coming back

If you were going to say I'm never gonna eat here again

I'm never coming back. There was a particular way you fold to the napkin and left it on the table

And I believe that's exactly what Jesus did with the faith cloth that was our I'm never coming back

I'll never be in this tomb again

hallelujah

Then the other disciple who came to the tomb first went in also and he saw and believed

For as yet they did not know the scripture that he must rise from the dead

Then the disciples went away again to their own homes

But Mary stood outside the tomb weeping and as she wept she stooped down and looked into the tomb

And she saw two angels in white sitting one at the head and the other at the feet where the body of Jesus had laying

Then they said to her woman why are you weeping and she said to them because they have taken away my lord

And I do not know where they have laid him

Now when she had said this she turned around and saw Jesus standing there and did not know that it was Jesus

He was disguised and Jesus said to her woman

And why are you weeping remember Jesus is the resurrected Christ now and he's in a glorified body

And there's other accounts where he walked through walls and obviously he was able to hide his appearance

There's not too many details about the glorified body in the scriptures, but it seems pretty cool to me

She's supposing him to be the gardener

He was disguised as the gardener why

I believe it's because this whole problem that he came to south started in a garden

And now he's coming as the gardener

To fix the problem that originated in the garden

She said to him sir if you have carried him away tell me where you have laid him and I will take him away

And Jesus said to her Mary

You know he calls her name and her eyes are open

Today some of you are going to hear him call your name

There's nothing like when he calls your name

Some of you even right now. I haven't even started really preaching

But your heart is beating inside your chest because the weight of eternity is in this room

And he's calling you out by name

He knows you he knew you before you were in your mother's womb

He's counted every hair on your head

And he's calling you

He's calling you to himself

Jesus said to her Mary should turn and set to him rebony

Which is to say teacher

And Jesus said to her do not cling to me

For I have not yet ascended to my father

But go to my brethren and say to them I am ascending to my father and your father

And to my God

And your God

Now when Mary goes to touch him in the Old King James he says touch me not

And the new King James he says don't cling to me

In every version of the Bible what he's saying is don't touch me

There was a spiritual reason I believe something a reason why she could not physically touch him in that moment

But something interesting happens just a few verses later 10 verses later

The disciples come and Thomas is one of the disciples. We've now nicknames him doubting Thomas

But he wanted to see with his own eyes

And Jesus at the time is to reach your finger here to where the spike

Had pierced him reach your finger here and look at my hands and reach your hand here

And where where he was cut with the spear in his side and put it into my side

Do not be believing

unbelieving but be

Believing

So I want to ask you a question what happened in between those 10 verses

Because he tells Mary don't touch me but then a short while after he's telling

Thomas go ahead and touch me

Put put your hand into my side put your finger through the hole in my hand

The answer is found in Hebrews chapter 9

Hebrews 9 · chapter mention

Starting in verse 11

When God created this planet when he created mankind he created this world perfect

He created man perfect and he put him in a perfect place the Garden of Eden

And he said you may eat of every fruit of the garden

But just the the tree of the knowledge of good and evil don't eat of that fruit

Of course man

ate of that fruit and that's when sin entered in

And sin like a viral disease was passed down

From generation to generation to generation if Adam or Eve could see the fruit of sin

If they could see the poverty the wars

The disasters

The envy the strife that would come for generations in generation

And I would afflict the whole world out of course they wouldn't have done it

But that sin spread

And there is a universal law echoed throughout the entire Bible from Genesis to revelation

And that's simply this that the penalty the punishment the wages the payment for sin

Is death

There must be a blood sacrifice to take away sins

There has to be because sin must be punished

So when you actually understand that the whole Bible comes alive and begins to make sense

And you see the thread from Genesis right on into the New Testament

Of the sacrificial system that was God gave the Hebrews that they would come

And this would happen every day and then especially on the day of Atonement the high priest would do it himself

They would take a bull or a goat or a heifer or a lamb

Unspotted without blemish it had to be perfect not a handicap to animal

And and sacrifice it to the Lord

But the Bible was clear that that would not take away sins that that merely temporarily covered them

But that that animal sacrifice was pointing to the ultimate sacrifice

God coming in the flesh and going to the cross as our substitute

And the punishment for sin that we deserve he would take it on himself

This is why blood is so important

This is why Satan always wants to minimize and belittle the blood

We just celebrated Passover for past over he said

When I see the blood I will pass over you the curse was that every first board of the Egyptians

Every first born would be smitten

But he told the Hebrews take the blood apply it to the doorpost

So when destruction comes it's not looking at have you been a good person have you been kind have you been nice

It's when I see the blood I will pass over you some of you are hearing this for the first time. Yes, Christianity is a bloody faith

Because that is what's necessary. That's how awful my sin is your sin is that it must require a perfect blood sacrifice to take all that sin away

So what happened in between Jesus saying touch me not and then

Telling time is go ahead and touch me

Hebrews nine happened there was an ascension and the great high priest Jesus appeared in heaven and presented his blood

You see the resurrection is proof

Now let me let me just stop right there

The the resurrection is proof that the blood sacrifice has been received the resurrection is proof that it's been paid and full

But I had actually a choice when I was going to preach this message

I the the the one other angle I could have gone down is that the resurrection

Is one of the most attested events in human history

And I was going to just kind of go and prove that I've tried that once before like going into how the resurrection is actually one of the most attested to

Events in history it was written about it wasn't just written in the gospels other historians wrote about it

They wrote about Jesus and other historians wrote about that who wrote about that and there's countless manuscripts

And I was going to preach that I preach it a long time ago even a little bit like that and it was crickets

People were snoring, but I understand some people are very very intellectual

They're very logical and so you need something like that you're not going to get that for me today

But the good news hey, there's good news now you can do research

Now whenever somebody tells you I did research that means they spoke into chat or grok for 10 seconds into their phone

So go up and grok it quad it chat it whatever and say show me how the resurrection is the most attested to

Event in history and

You'll get a list upon list upon a list

That this is no fairy tale

This is real

How many of you here you've had your lives absolutely transformed by Jesus Christ

You were one way and now you're another way wave your hand at me

Fables don't transform lives fairy tales don't transform lives

Every single one of the disciples gave their lives as a martyr

People don't die for a lie

Amen

But Christ came as high priest of the good things to come with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands

That is not of this creation

Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with his own blood

He entered the most holy place you seen the Old Testament the Hebrews had a holy place within the temple

God was clear when he gave instructions on building that holy place that this was a shadow of what's in heaven

This was an earthly representation of what actually is in heaven

So there is a holy place in heaven under the old covenant the Hebrew high priest who come in with that animal

That was sacrificed and he would sprinkle the blood on the mercy seat

And he would even sprinkle the blood on the people

Jesus did the same thing

But for the whole world he entered in not with the blood of bulls and goats and calves

But with his own blood he entered the most holy place once for all having obtained

eternal redemption

For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh

How much more shall the blood of Christ who through the eternal spirit offered himself without spot to God

Cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God

Hallelujah

So what happened in between touch me not and you may touch me is Jesus went up into heaven briefly

And brought his blood to the father and it was approved brought his blood over to the mercy seat and

Sprinkle the blood on the planet

Because in potential format the blood is on the planet. That's why we we have statues there named

Christ the savior of the world

That's why when John saw Jesus he said behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world

Jesus has cleansed the world, but is the whole world cleansed

Those who say yes are those who receive it those who reject Christ are not

So potentially speaking because he's done all the work

It depends on you it depends on man saying yes

I believe I believe that when you were on that cross you actually saw me and he did

Even though you were born two thousand years later. He saw you he knew your name and every single sin

You have committed or you would ever commit fell upon him

And he said it is finished paid in full

For you that's how much he loves you

Hallelujah

So I just want to read you several things that you have as a result of

The resurrection number one what I just read was confirmation of the sacrifice

The resurrection is confirmation that the sacrifice was well received and isn't that good news

Today's ago was good Friday

Good Fridays in the Bible somebody called it good Friday. They should have called it great Friday

Like really great Friday

Because on great Friday

He paid the price and said paid in full it is finished

Let's go to John chapter three and we'll start a verse one

As a result of the resurrection you have something called the new birth

The new birth is available to you

And this discussion concerning the new birth is found in John chapter three

This is one of the first passages of scripture I ever read when I was 16 years old

I didn't read it alone, but the people who were witnessing to me and trying to lead me to the Lord

Of course, this is one of the first chapters in the Bible. They opened up to

There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews

I used to have this joke when I first started city light

Nicodemus I like to call him Nick. He came to Jesus by night. I called that Nick at night

Ha ha in the whole place with laugh now no one laughs as you see

And I realized I'm not gonna say the joke anymore because it's told nearly 25 years later

You got youngins in the front row never even watch Nick at night

So this is probably the last year. I'll leave in a reference it

That was a good one while it lasted. We had that for a good decade

The man came to Jesus and said to him rabbi

We know that your teacher come from God for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him

And Jesus answered and said to him most assuredly I say to you

unless one is born again

He cannot see the kingdom of God and in a few verses you'll read the only must Jesus ever gave

Man in religion puts a lot of must you must you must you must there's only one must that Jesus gave you must

Be born again

And this is so powerful and so necessary

That culture and the media has actually poisoned that phrase born again when I became a Christian when actually was born

Again

People that I spoke to they asked me you remember this mom

I let my mom and father to the Lord after I became a Christian to say you one of those born again Christians

We're going oh and I was offended they would think because in my mind the born again Christian was a

Crazy wacko nut job

Because that's what the media and had trained me to think that's what popular culture had trained me to think

Then I then I realized oh wait, I am born again

But I am born again. I'm not a born again because this isn't a sect. This isn't a denomination. This isn't a

A particular church if you're a Christian a true Christian you're born again Jesus just said you have to be born again

How can you be a Christian and I be born again

Oh your confused your cultural Christian

You were born in a family that said oh, we're Christian and they only said that because they weren't Buddhist

They weren't Muslim. They weren't Jewish. They weren't Taoist. So yeah, we're Christian

You can't be a cultural Christian. It's actually be something you got to go through

Come on now. I can go set up a sleeping bag in my garage spend the whole week there doesn't make me a car

So I've been to church all my life. Yes, but are you born again?

Most assuredly I say to you unless one is born again

He cannot see the kingdom of God

Nicodemus said to him he's hearing Jesus completely in the natural

How can a man be born when he is old?

Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born

And Jesus answers most assuredly I say to you unless one is born of water and the spirit

He cannot enter the kingdom of God

That which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the spirit is spirit

So don't marvel that I said to you and here's the one and only must from Jesus. Don't marvel that I said to you

You must be born again

A great question to ask after hearing a must from Jesus like this is

How can I be born again?

And

It's so much easier than most people realize

We complicate things Jesus simplifies things

So I'm going to say it as simple as I possibly can when you believe on Jesus

Believe on his crucifixion on his burial and his resurrection

And you trust him with your life and you surrender your life over to him and you tell him that out loud

You will be born again many people when they actually do this they sense something happening

I I felt like I was turned inside out and he said a brand new spirit will I put in you that's what being born again is

Your old spirit stained with sin. It's not just refurbished. It's not just patched up

He doesn't just take the sin out

He cleanses you of all your sin, but he takes your spirit and the Bible calls it a new creation

He puts a brand spanking new spirit on the inside of you. That's the new birth

That's being born again, and that's available to whoever will call upon the name of the Lord

I highly recommend it

If you highly recommend a clap right now

First Peter one three

So because of the resurrection we have the new birth

The new birth is necessary

Because in order to go into heaven you know you have to be perfect to get into heaven

I didn't make that up that's in the Bible

I

Made a lot of new friends lately living in Long Island

People a lot more chatty over there

You know people in NYC they're guarded they're rigid

Near Long Island people like to chat

And I've really I mean I always knew this because I shared my faith everywhere I went

But it really is so true that your average person really thinks that they're really really good

Because we'll talk about eternity they've asked everyone of the first questions people ask you's what do you do

So I tell them

Which is a real treat

Because everybody has their own idea of what a pastor is and what he should be like

Then they start telling me about how good they are

People who trust in their own goodness. It's because they're comparing themselves to Hitler

Have you ever noticed if you've ever gotten into these conversations

You know someone why do you deserve to go to heaven? Well, I'm a pretty good person

I mean the whole generally. I mean I'm not Hitler right

Like like Hitler is the standard for goodness

I mean you compare yourself to Hitler and you go wow. I really you know, I won up Hitler

I'm more moral than Hitler God's gotta let me in

Listen God isn't gonna compare you to Hitler

God is gonna compare you to himself

He's gonna compare you to Jesus Christ and you're gonna come short

And when I share that with people in it

Well who then who then can get in well, that's the whole point. I'm so glad you asked

Looks like you need help

Looks like you need a

Savior yeah, that's what I was looking for. Thank you third row. You need a savior

Because you can't save yourself. You got to be perfect to get into a perfect heaven

You need a savior who will present the perfect sacrifice

Yeah, take away all your sin and then allow you to be born again to have a brand new spirit

Will which now you can go and meet the Lord in heaven? Hallelujah

Hallelujah first Peter one three blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ

According to his great mercy he has caused us to be born again

To a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ

From the dead because of today because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ

If you're to give your life to the Lord and he's knocking on the door of your heart right now

You will experience the new birth you will experience being born again

And then your brand new life and relationship with God begin

Been serving him 34 years now

There was never a minute where I regretted it. There's never a time worth. Oh, I shouldn't have said yes

It's the greatest decision I've ever ever made

Hallelujah

Let's look at John

John 11:25–26

11 verses 25 through 26

The resurrection is confirmation that you will live forever

Is this important to anyone?

Because it's really important to me

But talking to people it doesn't seem like it's that important like you just need to have above a room temperature IQ

To realize that you're an eternal being

Just put your phone down for 10 minutes and go into your infinite mind spend some time with you

And you'll realize you're conscious and that you're an infinite being

And what do you think is going to happen when you go

What do you really think are you gonna you know and I hear you well?

I think so and so why I think so like aren't you terrified to just ever you got an opinion

Everybody's got an opinion

Well, I think God at the end of the day well

Well, I just I and I believe all religions and all the boats, you know

They all get to the same side of the lake

So you're kind of like just guessing you worked 50 hours a week to keep your lights on but when it comes to your eternal soul

You spent five minutes thinking about it

There's a heaven to gain and a hell to shun and eternity is real

Now again, if you don't know my history, I was raised in New York City since I was five years old

In four still queens that moved to Manhattan for a few years and until recently spent 15 years in Williamsburg, Brooklyn

I didn't realize when I was in my 20s or 30s that NYC is so young

Like age-wise only as you get a little older do you realize you know like as I entered into my 40s in Williamsburg

I'm like, you know, I'm not like one of the cool guys around here anymore

You know somebody rushed to help me cross the street. I was like oh, I must be becoming a man of a certain age all of a sudden

And then we had a flood and we have two children my wife and I we moved to Long Island and Long Island is really old

Right, I know there's some Long Islanders here Long Island just like I think the average age is 58 there

Like that's a problem Long Island has so a lot of the people I'm meeting are older and I they know what I do

We talk about the things of God but

So few talk about eternity and I'm going how you got one foot in the grave another foot on a banana peel

Does it never cross your mind? Where will you spend eternity?

I want to live forever. Amen

Jesus said to her I am the resurrection and the life he who believes in me though he may die

Yet shall he live the resurrection is confirmation of eternal life

The resurrection is confirmation that you and you know when you just even honest with yourself

You know that you're an eternal being you know there's something more going on inside of you than a bunch of what you came from primordial

Lose in your collection of random molecules and chemicals and when you feel what what a Christian calls faith and love

That's just your neural receptors picking up on different happy chemical what I'm sorry. I don't have faith for that

I tried to be an atheist. I did. I really tried. I didn't have enough faith for it

As an atheist that have to believe that the big bang theory happened and that's to me that's like

Taking a grenade throwing it into a junkyard and now comes a complicated thing like a Rolex watch

I'm sorry. That's such a fantastic thing. I can't believe it

As much as I try to have faith. It's too much faith. I can't I can't do it

I just believe that there's amnipotent. I'm nepresident. I'm nishant

loving God and he made you

Hallelujah

First Corinthian 64 worship team you can come on up

First Corinth 614

And God both raised up the Lord and will also raise us up by his power

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Amen. I want to give you an opportunity

To receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior

He said behold I stand on the at the door and knock if any man open the door

I will come into him and will sup with him and he with me

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in him should not perish

But have everlasting life

Everlasting life is what he came to give you ever lasting life is why he was resurrected

What is the enemy? What is the problem here? Well Satan is trying to blind you

Satan is trying to keep you complacent

Satan and he's succeeding so many people going about I jokingly said one foot on the grave one foot on a banana peel

Ignoring what how do you ignore tic-tac tic-tac tic-tac you have a finite amount of time on the surface

How do you ignore that like what kind of denial do you have to live in?

To just ignore that and to go you know

I mean

No one's really that good the people have the silliest things that they say and I get it because I used to be one of those people

No one's really we're not even comparing you to anyone else forget about other people

This is about you and God and he knows you have a problem

He knows your stuff and the good news is he came from heaven to earth to solve your problem to fix your problem

And he's calling you right now

Every head bowed every eye closed

I want to ask you the most important decision anyone can ask you and that's if you were to die today

Do you know for certain that you would go and have eternity with God?

I'll ask it again if you were to die today

Do you know for certain that you would go to heaven?

If not I want to say a prayer with you and for you

I'm not going to ask you to get up out of your seat

But I'm going to ask you to lift up your hand in acknowledgement of your need for a savior

If that's you right now you want to have your sins forgiven you want to experience the new birth

You want to know Jesus

You want to be heaven bound and the count of three. I want you to raise your hand one two three

Lift your hand up in the sanctuary right now. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I see those hands

Thank you who else keep your hand up. Thank you

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you

Who else?

Do not resist the Holy Spirit

I sense the way to eternity in this place

God is after you. He wants you. He wants you forever with him

Who else

Who else

All right every hand down

I want you those of you who raised your hands to say this prayer out loud and we're all going to say it out loud

We're all going to pray this together, but those of you who raised your hands say it extra loud

That's important

Don't mouth this

Why am I stickler for it because the Bible says if you confess

If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus

So you got to confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead

You will be saved. So it's not actually enough just to believe in your heart. There's something about saying it out loud

So say this with me right now say dear Lord Jesus

I believe in you

I believe you died on the cross

in my place

For me

I receive you

As my Lord and Savior

I repent I ask your forgiveness

Fill me with the Holy Spirit

I put my trust in you

You are my Lord and Savior

I am now forgiving

I'm a friend of God

And I am cleansed and heaven bound

In Jesus name

Shot a big hallelujah

hallelujah

hallelujah

I've asked the worship team up

Because I want them to lead you in a song you can stay seated

But I want you to just have a moment with the Lord

I

Focus on salvation today because there's people who come on Easter Sunday. That's the only time they'll come

That's the only time we'll see them

When you actually get saved you'll come more

I mean if someone told me I had to go to church

Did you come from that background? I had to go to church. Is that what you guys were?

Yeah

No fun, right now I see both you smiling ear to your every Sunday now. It's not religion. You have to come right?

I want to come I get to come

And if you don't come you don't get a call from you're going to where have you been

Yeah, there's freedom in the camp

Hallelujah

So just just open your heart up

The Holy Spirit wants to come and minister to you now

You can do so much more than any man than the best of old men. They'll come and talk to you

He'll give you what you need

The resurrection is yes about eternal life

But the resurrection also

Opens the doorway for the Lord to solve our problems right here on earth

You were not created to suffer to crawl through life trying to just survive

He did actually create you to be blessed to have a victorious life and to thrive. Yes

Because

The resurrection is a story of victory and that victory has been transferred over to you from Jesus

Lord I bless your people lord may heavens rain come upon them this week

Show yourself strong on their behalf

Lord, I thank you that if any are going through a trial or something difficult you will come in and you will help them for your words
