Resurrection Revelation
John 20:11-18
There’s a well-known story about a famous violinist who took his $3.5 million Stradivarius onto a platform of a Washington DC subway and started playing music. He was dressed in a T-shirt and a ball cap. Joshua Bell was accustomed to playing for packed concert halls and getting paid $1,000 a minute. During his 43-minute solo concert in the subway a total of 1097 people passed by. But only seven people stopped to listen. He earned $32 in change.
J.T. Tillman, a computer specialist, was one of the people who walked by. He said, “I didn’t think nothing of it, just a guy trying to make a couple of bucks.” Tillman would’ve given him some cash, but he spent all his money on the lotto. When he was told that he stiffed one of the best musicians in the world, he asked, “Is he ever going to play around here again?” The reporter said, “Yeah, but you’re going to have to pay a lot to hear him.”
Exactly one person recognized Joshua Bell. Her name was Stacy. She positioned herself 10 feet away from Bell, front row, center. She had a huge grin on her face.
She said, “It was the most astonishing thing I’ve ever seen in Washington. Joshua Bell was standing there playing at rush-hour, and people were not stopping, and not even looking, and some more flipping quarters at him! Quarters!
I was thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, what kind of a city do I live in that this could happen?’”
It’s not what we see – it’s what we perceive
(what LENS are you looking through?)
“the eyes of your heart being enlightened”
John 13: Then Jesus was moved deeply in his spirit. Looking at his disciples, he announced, “I tell you the truth—one of you is about to betray me.”
John asked: “Master, who is it?”
Jesus: “The one I give this piece of bread to after I’ve dipped it in the bowl,” Jesus replied
When Jesus gave the bread to Judas, none of the others connected it with what He had just said!
John 13:26, Jesus tells his disciples that he will give a morsel of bread to the one who will betray him. He then dips the morsel and hands it to Judas Iscariot.
vs 28: But no one at the meal understood why Jesus said this to him.
John 12:16: Now Jesus’ disciples didn’t fully understand the importance of what was taking place, but after he was raised and exalted into glory, they understood how Jesus fulfilled all the prophecies in the Scriptures that were written about him.
Do we have an intellectual understanding – or do we have a revelation?
Today on Resurrection Sunday, may we truly have a Resurrection Revelation
Eph 5:14: “Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.”
“flesh and blood hath not revealed this”
Matthew 13:15: Their minds are dull and slow to perceive, their ears are plugged and are hard of hearing, and they have deliberately shut their eyes to the truth. Otherwise they would open their eyes to see, and open their ears to hear, and open their minds to understand. Then they would turn to me and I would instantly heal them.
We need a resurrection revelation. It is not something we see with our natural eyes. It is spiritually discerned, and revealed by Holy Spirit.
Start this Resurrection Sunday – and in affect – your New Life
– with this Divine Revelation:
2 Cor 5:19: God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them. And he has entrusted to us the message of reconciliation.
Christians should be the people of The Way. Light Bearers.
“We are offering hope, dignity, mercy and love.”
WE have all been give the ministry of sharing the Good News about Jesus with everyone
Col 2:14: “ …he canceled the unfavorable record of our debts with its binding rules and did away with it completely by nailing it to the cross.”
We’re here to give others the hope and confidence of a better life
We look beyond ourselves and we become confident in God’s Gift of Divine Mercy
“Mercy is always an invitation to a better life.”
The Resurrection Revelation can change everything for you
As Believers – as followers of Jesus - You are “risen with Christ”
Once we get that revelation living in our hearts, our next job is to share it with the whole world.
Eph 1:18: I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,
“flooding you with light, until you experience the full revelation of the hope of his calling”
• Open the eyes of my heart, Lord Open the eyes of my heart
I want to see You I want to see You
To see You high and lifted up Shinin' in the light of Your glory
Pour out Your power and love As we sing holy, holy, holy
Phil Pringle: Dead for Nothing?
“We are completely set free from sin through Christ’s death”
“Everything keeping us from God has been removed by Jesus through His blood.”
Romans 6:14: For sin shall not have dominion over you, for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
A Resurrection Revelation is a spiritual awakening to what Jesus paid the price for you and I to have.
When you have a true Resurrection Revelation, and you understand our Redemption, our New Covenant –
if you love God and walk in the Fear of the Lord, you will never minimize what Jesus has won for us in His crucifixion.
1 Peter 2:24: “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
Jesus said “according to your faith let it be to you.” (Matt 9:29)
How can we have faith for things we don’t know? How can we know unless we hear it?
How can we hear it unless someone shares the whole truth with us?
Jesus was disruptive in His time on earth
Jesus is still disruptive in 2025 – He is calling us out of our complacency.
Romans 13:11: now it is high time to awaken out of sleep; for now is our salvation nearer than when we first believed.
Today is Resurrection Sunday.
After the resurrection, Jesus would soon ascend into heaven.
John 16:7: But here’s the truth: It’s to your advantage that I go away…
…for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.
(Jesus was referring to the Holy Spirit, Who would come on the Day of Pentecost when all in the upper room received the baptism of the Holy Spirt and Fire)
Luke 24:49: I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.
What Jesus promised was not a lesser form of Himself, but all the fullness
Eph 3:19: “…that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.”
Jesus is the True Vine. We are the branches. Apart from Him we can do nothing.
But yes, we have our part to play
Jesus said: “According to your faith let it be done to you”
When Jesus visited His hometown we read:
Matt 13:58: And he did not do many mighty works there, because of their unbelief.
Faith comes by hearing…
Brothers and sisters in Christ:
May our hearts become New Wineskins to receive the Word of God.
Eph 4:13: until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
“ … until we all experience the fullness of what it means to know the Son of God”
May we truly have a Resurrection Revelation this Easter morning.
