Jesus Is Alive!

Luke 24:1–12

WHAT HAPPENED

Very early on the first day of the week, some women went to the tomb with spices they had prepared. When they went in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. They heard that He was not there, because He had risen, and they remembered what He had said. Then they returned from the tomb and told the others. Peter ran to the tomb, saw the linen cloths lying there, and went away wondering about what had happened.
