Jesus is Buried

Pastor Joshua Hughes
Text: Matthew 27:57-66

Heidelberg Catechism Q41 “Why was he ‘buried?'" 
Answer. "To confirm the fact that he was really dead.”

“One reason for God wishing his Son to be buried was to give better testimony that He had died a real death, on our account.”
- John Calvin

Big Idea: Jesus really died and was buried, so we can be assured that in coming to him we can really live.
