Can He Save Us? (Matthew 27:55-66) - a podcast by Belgrade URC

We mighty wonder how Christ's burial contributes to the success of his mission.

This is also fulfills what the Lord spoke through Isaiah that the suffering servant would be buried in a rich man's tomb. Matthew subtly shows us that the Lord continues to fulfill his mission even in death. So, we can see the fulfillment of the Old Testament, but how can Matthew's recounting of Christ's burial assure us that Christ is able to save us from our sins?
