From Sorrow to Joy
Morning Service
Apr 28, 2024
Since Jesus’ disciples didn’t yet grasp the reality of His upcoming death and resurrection, they struggled to understand what He meant when He said, “A little while, and you will see me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see me.” In answer to their confusion, Jesus prepared them for His departure by comparing the cross to the agony and joy of childbirth. Alistair Begg walks us through Jesus’ declaration, illustration, and explanation, clarifying how, like the apostles, we, too, can be assured and rejoice.
Topics: Christian Thinking, Christ’s Resurrection, Death of Christ
