Romans in the New Testament

No power can stop God’s glory. These soldiers witnessed the angel, the earthquake, and the empty tomb. Though bribed to lie, their fear testified to the reality of Christ’s resurrection.

The keepers did shake. (Matthew 28:4)

His countenance was like lightning. (Matthew 28:3)

Why seek ye the living among the dead? (Luke 24:5)
