The Tomb Was Empty
Robert Walker
Matthew 28
Adrian Rogers and his wife, Joyce were in Russia before Lenin's tomb was torn down. It was an attraction for tourists to go through the mausoleum where Lenin's body was on display.

They had been there when Jesus rode in on the colt before thousands shouting his praises, what an incredible moment that was. But unfortunately their minds and the events of last week didn't stop their.
Try as they might they couldn't stop those other thoughts, those terrible scenes from playing out again and again in their minds.
They saw Jesus tied to a post a Roman scourge filled with broken pieces of pottery, glass and bones ripping across His back. As they recall ...
