Not one of Jesus' followers really expected him to rise from the grave. The information in Scripture is plain. On that early Easter morning the women went to the tomb, not in the hope of seeing the living Christ, but to anoint the dead body. All of Jesus' hints and straightforward declarations of His crucifixion and resurrection failed to penetrate their spirit and intellect. They never understood what He was saying.
Life is finished.
Insensitivity to a fresh word from God will suffocate the Spirit's ministry in our lives.
