NEW BEGINS AT THE EMPTY TOMB.

• In Christ we have victory over the past.

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.
1 Corinthians 15:17

• In Christ we have hope for the future.

If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.
1 Corinthians 15:19

• In Christ we have purpose in the present.

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.^[a] The old has passed away; behold, the new has come… 20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
2 Corinthians 5:17,20

1 Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, 2 and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.

3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, 5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. 6 Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.
1 Corinthians 15:1-6
