πŸ‘‘ The Rest Of The Message

To carry the news of the Battle of Waterloo to England, a ship signaled to a man on shore, who relayed the word to another on a hill, and so on across Britain. The first word, β€œWellington,” was signaled. The next word was β€œdefeated.” Then a fog closed in, and the message was interrupted. Across England, people wept over the message: β€œWellington defeated.” Then the fog lifted. The communication continued with two additional words: β€œthe enemy.” And Englishmen celebrated the victory.

There was great sorrow when the body of Jesus was carried from the cross to the tomb. The signal seemed to say, β€œJesus Christ defeated.” But three days later the fog lifted and it was announced, β€œJesus Christ defeated the enemy!” Through Christ we have complete victory over our enemies of sin, death, and Satan, and we have new life, a glorious hope, and the certainty of our own resurrection one day.

β€œLooking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ” (Titus 2:13).

β€œThe last enemy that shall be destroyed is death” (I Cor. 15:26).
