ELCA NEWS SERVICE March 22, 2010 ELCA Presiding Bishop's 2010 Easter Message 10-099-MSH The last enemy to be destroyed is death. ~ 1 Corinthians 15:26 For a brief time, while the crucified Jesus lay in a borrowed tomb, it seemed as if death had triumphed once again. Threatened by a messenger of God's expansive, steadfast love, yet another human mob succumbed to death's seduction. They chose its brutal, silencing power and trusted its empty finality. Death's murderous rebellion against the Creator of life seemed unstoppable.
