From Suffering
to Glory
lone crowns Gates, LaRue as
prom royalty
In the accounts o f the suffering and death o f Je
sus, there are many people around him - the Chief Priests,
Pilate, Scribes, Pharisees, Barabhas, soldiers, Simon of
Cyrene, Veronica , the Centurion, John an Apostle and
Mary his Mother. He, o f course, is the central figure
as he comes to complete his mission on earth. He has
worked miracles, made prophesies, told parables. But
now is the time for the sacrifice of his life for the salva
tion o f mankind. “No one has greater love than this, to
lay down one’s life for one’s friends” (Jn. 15:13). Many
clamored for him and proclaimed his praises as he en
tered Jerusalem on that occasion. People had often been
astounded at his words, but soon they would reject him.
They cried out, “Hosanna to the Son o f David,” but a
few days later they yelled, “Crucify him.” Pilate had him
scourged, and the soldiers crowned him with a crown of
thorns. Then they nailed him to the cross. His response:
“Father, forgive them, they know not what they do” (Lk.
23:34). What mercy! To the penitent thief: “Today you
will be with me in paradise” (Lk. 23:43). What compas
sion! To his Mother and St. John: “Behold your son....
behold your mother” (Jn. 19:26-27). No wonder that the
Centurion could exclaim, “Truly this man was the Son
of God” (Mk. 15:39).
Even though that is a record o f his infinite love
for mankind, the account does not end there. He rose from
the dead and appeared to the Apostles, to two disciples
who were going to Emmaus, to Mary Magdalen, to Peter
and to some 500 others. So strong was this evidence that
St. Paul would later say, “If Christ has not been raised,
lone seniors Mary Gates and Kevin LaRue were crowned your faith is v ain...” (1 Cor. 15:17).

No one knows quite how it happened. Jesus had
been murdered and sealed up tight in a tomb on Friday.
By Sunday morning, the tomb was empty. There had been
plenty o f witnesses to the crucifixion, but no one saw
the resurrection taking place. There was just an empty
tomb where there should have been a dead body, and
life-changing encounters with a living Jesus, still bear
ing the marks of his Friday ordeal. It’s hard to explain,
or understand. It’s truly a mystery, and yet it’s true. Jesus
rose. Death couldn’t hold him.
Because the tomb was empty, the grieving friends
of Jesus learned that his story had not come to an end
after all; it was only beginning. Instead o f death, shat
tered dreams, and empty promises, they discovered that
the promises were even greater than they had imagined.
Sorrow turned into joy because new life had emerged out
o f death— first for Jesus, but not only for Jesus.
His life means new life for all who believe in
him. As friends o f a living Jesus, w e’re not confined to
the dark tomb o f human error and limitation; our identity
isn’t defined just by family ties or occupation, by tragedy
or hopelessness. When the light of Christ shines into our
dark places, we are made new. Even the things that look
like endings can be recognized as new beginnings, filled
with new life and hope, full o f possibility because Jesus
has set us free. We’ve been freed from the burden of our
failures and all the mistakes o f our past. We’ve been freed
from the illusion that we can save ourselves and win God’s
love by being good enough. We’ve been given the gift of
new life in Christ— not just eternal life after we die, but
abundant life now.
That tomb is still empty. Jesus still lives. And
so can we.
