One Women and an Empty Tomb

The Christian faith elevates women as no other religion or philosophy in the world. Here is a picture in this text of the Son of God just risen from the dead and He pauses before he ascends to the Father to reveal Himself to Mary Magdalene. She is not some noted women of name and position, she is a convert from vile living that was possessed with seven demons. Jesus had cast the demons out and she is now a saint. The beauty of the story is only greater because of what Jesus said to her. He gave her a portion of theology that He gave to no one else. He said as she must have reached for His feet in Worship, "Touch Me not; for I have not yet ascended to My Father…"(John 20-17). This is a rare jewel of Truth. He ascended to the Heavenly Temple to present His sacrifice on the Altar where he was soon to appear as our High Priest. Please listen to the rest of the story…
