What makes this conversation amazing is that it is likely the first conversation Jesus has with someone (aside from perhaps the angel who had rolled away the stone), and in this discussion we discover some key details about what happened and didn\u2019t happen over the time Jesus was in the grave.<\/p>\r\n<p>But even before we get to the conversation, we must set the stage. Several women and disciples had already been to the tomb and seen it empty. They all had left confused to return to the others to describe what they saw. But Mary stayed behind at the tomb, and because she did this, she gets the honor of being the first witness of a resurrected Jesus.<\/p>\r\n<p>Our passage is found in John\u2019s gospel, chapter 20, and we will be reading from the Good News Translation. Starting in verse 11, John tells us what happened:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>11\u00a0<\/sup>Mary stood crying outside the tomb. While she was still crying, she bent over and looked in the tomb\u00a0<sup>12\u00a0<\/sup>and saw two angels there dressed in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had been, one at the head and the other at the feet.\u00a0<sup>13\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cWoman, why are you crying?\u201d they asked her.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>She answered, \u201cThey have taken my Lord away, and I do not know where they have put him!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>14\u00a0<\/sup>Then she turned around and saw Jesus standing there; but she did not know that it was Jesus.\u00a0<sup>15\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cWoman, why are you crying?\u201d Jesus asked her. \u201cWho is it that you are looking for?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>She thought he was the gardener, so she said to him, \u201cIf you took him away, sir, tell me where you have put him, and I will go and get him.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Let\u2019s pause briefly at this point in the passage. To the angels who know Jesus was resurrected, and to Jesus Himself who is now alive, the idea of crying over the loss of Someone who has returned doesn\u2019t make any sense. However, John tells us that Mary didn\u2019t recognize Jesus.<\/p>\r\n<p>I wonder if Jesus simply hadn\u2019t taken a shower or combed His hair, or maybe He simply looked different. It is also possible that if Mary\u2019s eyes had adjusted to the shadows and darkness of the tomb, then her eyes would still be adjusting to the light if she turned around quickly to acknowledge this gardener. Mary may also have been crying and if tears had filled her eyes, she might not have been able to see clearly either. Whatever the reason for Mary not recognizing Jesus, we can only logically speculate.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, Jesus\u2019 appearance isn\u2019t completely different, because of what we read next. Continuing in verse 16, we read:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>16\u00a0<\/sup>Jesus said to her, \u201cMary!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>She turned toward him and said in Hebrew, \u201cRabboni!\u201d (This means \u201cTeacher.\u201d)<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>In verse 16, Jesus says Mary\u2019s name, and this is just enough to break her out of her tears to realize that this stranger actually knows her.<\/p>\r\n<p>Maybe Mary was so teary-eyed that she simply didn\u2019t look up and only saw the clothing of a person she didn\u2019t recognize, but once she heard her name, she then looked up and saw the face of her Savior.<\/p>\r\n<p>While John doesn\u2019t state this, my imagination has Mary\u2019s tears of sadness turning into tears of joy and wonder. As her face changes, she runs towards Jesus and embraces Him in a hug that she never wants to end.<\/p>\r\n<p>What was probably longer than 30 seconds, and perhaps even a few minutes, my imagination then brings us back to where John picks up in verse 17. John continues by telling us that Jesus then said to Mary:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>17\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cDo not hold on to me,\u201d Jesus told her, \u201cbecause I have not yet gone back up to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them that I am returning to him who is my Father and their Father, my God and their God.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>18\u00a0<\/sup>So Mary Magdalene went and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord and related to them what he had told her.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>In my mind, it would be unlike Jesus to keep someone He loves at arm\u2019s length. In my mind, Jesus was more than willing to embrace Mary, but eventually there must be a time for the hug to end. When Jesus knew the time was right, He then commissions Mary to go and tell the other disciples what she had experienced, and specifically what Jesus had told her.<\/p>\r\n<p>What had Jesus told Mary?<\/p>\r\n<p>After asking Mary to not hold onto Him, Jesus told her the reason. He said this was because \u201c<strong>I have not yet gone back up to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them that I am returning to him who is my Father and their Father, my God and their God.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>I find this detail powerful.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>For the whole time Jesus was in the grave, according to what He tells Mary, He never once returned to the Father.<\/strong> While most people agree with this, the message Jesus tells Mary clashes with what many people believe Jesus promised a thief on the cross in Luke\u2019s gospel. Luke tells us that Jesus told one of the criminals who was crucified with Him that they both would be together in paradise. Most people believe Jesus to have given that promise with the time constraint of that day.<\/p>\r\n<p>But Jesus clearly stated that He never returned to the Father while He was \u201cgone\u201d, and several days had passed. With this supposed contradiction, we must start analyzing the details to help us uncover how both places are sharing truth.<\/p>\r\n<p>While some people might call the grave paradise, I doubt that is what Jesus had in mind here. While the grave is a place where we might \u201crest in peace\u201d, it is a big stretch in my mind to think of it as paradise.<\/p>\r\n<p>Perhaps Jesus\u2019 message to the thief about being saved relates to each of us who have the assurance of salvation. <strong>From the moment we place our faith, hope, trust, and belief in Jesus, we can know we are saved.<\/strong> This isn\u2019t because we have done any great or not-so-great thing for God. It\u2019s because we know we cannot do anything, or give anything greater than what God has given for us \u2013 and there is no way we can truly repay the sin debt that our lives owe.<\/p>\r\n<p>Through Jesus, God created another option, and this secondary option is by accepting Jesus\u2019 life as a substitute for ours. When we accept this, we begin to see the world differently, and we should begin to live differently as well. Our obedience is the way we say thank you to God. Obedience is never enough to earn our own way.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>From the moment we accept Jesus as our substitute, we have the assurance of salvation, and this was as true for the thief on the cross as it is for each of us today. Eternity starts when we step towards God through Jesus. However, eternal life is a reward that is saved for the New Heaven and New Earth.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Jesus\u2019 message through Mary helps us understand how salvation works. There is an immediate reward, but there is also a future reward as well.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>With all this said, as we come to the end of another podcast episode, here are the challenges I will leave you with:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>As I always open by challenging you, intentionally seek God first in your life and continue living with Jesus as your substitute. Choose to live your life in a way that says \u201cthank you\u201d to God for what He has done for each of us. Know that your obedient life is not because you are trying to earn salvation, but instead remember that obedience is the best way of saying thank you to God for salvation.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Also, as I regularly challenge you to do, continue growing towards Jesus by praying, reading, and studying your Bible personally. While group study is valuable, personal study is just as important. We need both a personal connection with God and a community connection with Him as well. The challenge here is to strengthen whichever connection needs to be strengthened.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>And as I end every set of challenges by saying in one way or another, never stop short of, back away from, chicken out of, or not recognize where God wants to lead you to in your life with Him!<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div>\r\n<p><strong>Flashback Episode:<\/strong> \r\nYear 2 &#8211; Episode 49: On the morning Jesus was resurrected, one of the first people Jesus talks to is Mary. During their conversation, Jesus hints at a powerful idea related to how we are saved and when we are rewarded with eternal life.\r\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2537","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-audio"],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Flashback Episode - A Message through Mary: John 20:11-18 - Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\/gospeladventure\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Flashback Episode - A Message through Mary: John 20:11-18 - Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\/gospeladventure\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/reflectivebiblestudy\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2018-12-03T10:00:00+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-04-15T17:01:56+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Cam\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@godstruthhisway\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@godstruthhisway\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Cam\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/6aa6c062baad6d28cd49429d13dee5e3\"},\"headline\":\"Flashback Episode &#8212; A Message through Mary: John 20:11-18\",\"datePublished\":\"2018-12-03T10:00:00+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-04-15T17:01:56+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":1563,\"articleSection\":[\"Audio Journal Entries\"],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\\\/\",\"name\":\"Flashback Episode - A Message through Mary: John 20:11-18 - Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2018-12-03T10:00:00+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-04-15T17:01:56+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/6aa6c062baad6d28cd49429d13dee5e3\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-a-message-through-mary-john-20-11-18\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Flashback Episode &#8212; A Message through Mary: John 20:11-18\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/\",\"name\":\"Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure\",\"description\":\"Your Life.
