Trust the Son
Have you ever seen two people that needed to be on the same page about something, but just weren’t? Maybe it was your parents, your boss and your boss’ boss, or two friends. You had a question, so you asked one person and got one answer, but then you got a completely different answer from the other. How confusing is that?
That is something that never happens with God and His Son, Jesus.
John 3:34-35 (NIV) tells us, "For the one whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit without limit. The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands." These verses show us how special Jesus is to God and how much power and love God has given Him.
Jesus speaks the words of God, knows the will of God, and has the power of God. They are always on the same page.
Because Jesus speaks the words of God, we can trust that everything He says is true and reflects who God is accurately.
Because Jesus has the power of God, we can believe that what He says will come to pass.
God loves Jesus. God speaks through Jesus. This means we can trust Jesus completely. He has all the power and authority and is speaking Truth because what He speaks is directly from God.

Good news changes everything.
But none of those moments, as incredible as they are, even come close to the truth delivered on the first Easter morning:
"He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay."
Matthew 28:6 (NIV)
Jesus had been crucified publicly, brutally, and officially. He was wrapped, sealed in a tomb. There was no question. Jesus was dead. It was true.
But when His followers Mary and Mary Magdalene arrived to grieve? The stone was rolled away. The tomb was empty. And an angel met them with the most stunning announcement in human history.
But the angel doesn’t just tell the women the truth. He invites them to look for themselves. To step inside. To experience the...
