Apparently there is an alcoholic beverage available in the distant hills >r of southwest China that is reputed, after one drink, "to .allow a rabbit to 'apit in the eye of a tiger". _that .power was artificial. The "something" that enabled a group of dispirited weak followers logo out.and face the world was "for real". The resurrection of Baster mooing entered the minds of weak. dispirited .people..and sent them out into an apathetic. hostile world -- to change it with a message of faith, hope.and love that could never be suppressed by hopelessness and death. It worked! The Roman empire passed away. The Spirit of God revealed by Jesus lived on! It inspired litre, fearful people to .change society .and reshape the world. Today we face an apathetic, hostile world. For many people today the iexecution of Jesus worked. His strange thoughts about God and.people and how they should connect - worked. The vision of the new world is clouded with mists of doubt. The Gres of enthusiasm .burn low - or are mere embers of disappointment. Was the resurrection of Jesus Christ mere history.. or can we catch the message from an empty tomb?
