I WROTE A LITTLE ON THIS THE OTHER DAY BUT I WANT TO EXPAND ON IT A LITTLE BIT THIS MORNING.  THE PREACHING OF THE RESURRECTION WAS NEVER TAUGHT DURING THE MINISTRY. OF JESUS. THE ONLY TIME IT WAS MENTIONED WAS RIGHT BEFORE PASSOVER WHEN JESUS GOT HIS TWELVE DISCIPLES TOGETHER AND TOLD THEM, BUT THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THEY UNDERSTOOD NONE OF IT.  LOOK WHAT IT SAYS IN LUKE 18:31-34 Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.  For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on: And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.  And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.  LIKE I HAVE SAID BEFORE, IF THEY HAD KNOWN HE WAS GOING TO RISE FROM THE DEAD, DON'T YOU THINK THEY ALL WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE JUST WAITING FOR HIM TO COME OUT OF THE TOMB ON THAT THIRD DAY?
