Jesus came back to life!

What Did We Learn?
- After Jesus died on the cross, He did not stay in the tomb. On the third day, just as He promised, Jesus rose from the dead!
- Because Jesus rose from the dead, we know that He is the Son of God, that His promises are true, and that He has power over sin and death.
- Just as the angel said, "He is not here, for he has risen, as he said."
- Jesus is alive today, and everyone who trusts in Him can have eternal life.
