Jesus still lives
Have you met him?

 "And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed. And he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here.".
Mark Chapter 16 verses 5 and 6

 

2000 years ago, some women entered a tomb expecting to find the dead body of their teacher buried in a tomb. But instead they find it empty and a young man tells them that Jesus was risen, he was no longer dead. 

Who was this person Jesus who was able to rise from the dead? Where is he now? And how can I meet him? 

Jesus still lives. Have you met him? 

 

This is the greatest true story that there has ever been. Jesus died but is now alive, and still lives! And you can meet this Jesus now in the Bible. Find out more about who he is, why he died and what his story means for you. 

At Campus Bible Study, we would love for you to meet this Jesus who still lives. If you would like to know more, please get in contact with us below or join us at one of our events!
