When Julius Caesar came to Alexandria, he was show the coffin of Alexander the Great. He then was asked if he would like to see Ptolemy's coffin. He said, "I came to see a king, not a corpse."

When we come to church, we come to see a King, not a corpse! When we come to church, particularly at Easter, we come to see a living King.
