Mary Knew Her Master’s Voice: Things Unseen with Sinclair B. Ferguson

Summary

This sermon explores the significance of Mary Magdalene being the first witness to the resurrected Christ, using John's Gospel for authenticity. It highlights how her initial distress and social standing would have made her testimony seem unreliable, yet John includes it to demonstrate the unvarnished truth of the resurrection. The takeaway is that we, too, can recognize and respond to Jesus' voice, just as Mary did, especially when His Word is preached.
