The resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ declared His victory over the powers of evil - the triumph of His love for sinners. Reading the words of the angel - "There is no need for you to be afraid ... He has risen", we rejoice in the truth that "perfect love casts out fear." The perfect love, by which Christ gave Himself as the Saviour of sinners, reached its climax in His resurrection. Evil men crucified the Son of God, but God raised Him from the dead. There is no need to fear. The love of God has triumphed. The love of God is victorious. This victory is to be proclaimed to the world. This was the last command of the Lord Jesus Christ - "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go, therefore, make disciples of all nations ... I am with you always."
