Our journey following Jesus to the cross has ended. Christ’s work on the cross is finished. On this Holy Saturday, we wait, watch, and pray. Our attention this evening is focused on Jesus’ burial and coming resurrection. We watch as Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea bury Jesus in a new tomb. We see that Jesus’ words spoken to Nicodemus in John 3 are bearing fruit. Nicodemus has followed Jesus and is born again from above as a new creation. On this Easter Vigil, we remember our Baptism, and we remember when we were born again by water and the Spirit and made Christ’s new creation.
Holy Saturday
