THE DEATH OF JESUS
Text: Is. 53; 1 Corth 15: 1-8
Introduction
The death of Jesus Christ is a core issue in Christian faith. Since man fell from grace in the garden of Eden, he lost the glory of God through that sin of disobedience. Man therefore needs restoration back to God.
Why Did Jesus Die?
1) Because of the sins of Man
1 Pet.2:24; Rom.5:17; Matt.8;17
2) To reconcile Man back to God
Col.1:20-22; Heb.9:7-21; 2 Coth.5;18-19; heb.2:17
3) To redeem man from Sin?
1 Peter.1:18; Ps.55:15; Rev5:9; Eph.1:7
FACTS ABOUT THE DEATH OF JESUS CHRIST- Mt.27:57-66
If the disciples of Jesus seem to have forgotten his promise that he would rise up from the dead, his enemies had not. They took every human measure possible to be certain that his predicted victory over the grave would never take place.
a. After Resurrection, His tomb was found empty.
Mt.28:6; John.20:1-8;
b. Jesus revealed the nail prints in his hands
John.20:27-30
c. Paul gave a testimony of Jesus Resurrection
1 pet.1:21; Acts.22:1-21
d. Jesus appeared to many after his Resurrection.
Mt.28:9-19: Jhn.20:14; Lk.24:13-26

CONCLUSION
These are infallible proof that Jesus died and rose for the salvation of mankind.
