It’s about the Work (John 20:1-18)
True freedom, as we find it in Jesus, can never be about ever more elaborate ways to justify selfishness—to say that we have responsibility only for ourselves and those we love.
True freedom for those who follow Jesus is being given the opportunity, no matter how much it costs, to love those whom Jesus loves.
But the thing is, we have to leave the empty tomb to do it. We remember it; we love it, but we see it as a place from which we’re sent out into the world—because that’s where the sick, and the hungry, and the imprisoned are. That’s where the work is. And that’s where Jesus is.
