The Disciples, Mary, Nicodemas, Joseph….the Lord told all of these that He would rise from the dead on the 3^rd day.  Why were they so surprised when they arrived at the tomb or heard the news?  Was no one listening to Jesus?  These were intelligent people; they could think for themselves—so what happened?  Why did no one remember?  It’s too bad that they didn’t have Bibles like we do, who can simply read the story ourselves.  Thankfully, we never have to be told twice.  We remember perfectly, and believe every time.

     “He is not here: for He is risen, as He said.”   Matthew 28:6
