Linen in the Bible - a Christian perspective
The disciples who went to Jesus' tomb found only empty linen--the grave-clothes that had contained Jesus' body were empty, neatly folded and left in the tomb. Jesus was alive, and gone from the tomb.

Jesus died - a Christian perspective
Just as Jesus died but rose from the dead, so we can be confident that he has the power to raise from the dead those of his followers who have also died.

Destroy this temple - a Christian perspective
Jesus predicted his own death and resurrection well before they took place. He often couched his prophesies in parables or metaphors. Here, he describes himself as a temple that, when destroyed, will be rebuilt again three days later.

Rise again - a Christian perspective
Jesus himself predicted his betrayal, death, and resurrection. But even though they heard Jesus' words, the disciples didn't truly grasp what he meant; and when Jesus' crucifixion took place, they were as bewildered and terrified as everybody else.

Resurrection of Jesus - a Christian perspective

Alive - a Christian perspective
In the days immediately following the Resurrection, it was difficult for Christ's disciples to believe that he was actually alive. Despite having heard Christ predict his own death and resurrection, they were still amazed and confounded by reports of the empty tomb.

Firstfruits - a Christian perspective
Christ is described as the "firstfruits" of those who have died and risen again--the first and most important resurrection in all of history.

He is not here - a Christian perspective
Perhaps the most amazing words in all of the Bible are these, uttered by the angel standing guard at Jesus' empty tomb: "He is not here." Christ had risen from the dead!
