Ever wonder what Monday was like in Jerusalem the Monday after Jesus' resurrection? Did life go on as normal? Did the High Priest take a day off? Did Pontius Pilate escape into his house and hide? Did Barabbas, the man Jesus replaced that day ever wonder "What if Jesus had not shown up?" or "Why did that happen?" Did anyone notice a difference? Did anyone really care?
Where was Jesus? What was He doing? Where were the Disciples? Were they out telling people about what they had seen and heard?
Did you ever wonder what Monday was like in the rest of the world the day after history changed? The day after history changed forever?
Think about this:
"All but four of the major world religions are based on mere philosophical propositions. Of the four that are based on personalities rather than philosophies, only Christianity claims an empty tomb for its founder. In 1900 B.C. Judaism’s Father Abraham died. In 483 B.C. Buddhist writings say Buddha died 'with that utter passing away in which nothing whatever remains behind.' June 6, 632 A.D. Mohammed died. . In 33 A.D. Jesus died but came back to life appearing to 500 people over a period of 40 days. 'And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.' (I Corinthians, 15:14)."

Today is not just any Monday. Today is a new day in the world. He's Alive!
Does anyone notice a difference? Does anyone care?
People, Jesus is alive, ready and waiting to save you FOREVER.
