Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which happened, as far as we know, on the third day after His crucifixion. When the women visited the tomb on the third day following Jesus’s death, they discovered it to be empty and that the stone had been removed.
Is that even possible? He vanishes without warning, leaving a huge stone barrier and guards stationed day and night. The final atonement for our sins is the shedding of His blood, and everyone who believes in Him is granted eternal life. Sins were washed because of what Jesus did for us; now, we are as white as snow in His eyes. We’ve received forgiveness.
