He is Risen!
Today we remember the bottom line and the foundation of our faith: the fact that Jesus died and God raised Him from the dead by His Spirit and power!
On behalf of my family, Grace Missions International and The Bible Class I wish to say Happy Resurrection!
If there were no resurrection our faith would have been in vain. That Jesus rose from the dead, we have an assurance of our own resurrection into erernal life.
.
[My Offline Bible] 1 Corinthians 15
17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. 18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. 19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. 20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
This is why salvation comes from our faith in the resurrection of Jesus and our confession of submission to His consequent Lordship!
That's why we celebrate at this season when we remember that heaven's gate has been opened for us.
This is why a lot still argue about His death and His resurrection. The truth is that we have nothing to lose believing His death and we only have eternity with God to gain for believing He was raised from the dead.
His death is for our sins and His resurrection is for our justification.
[My Offline Bible] Romans 4
24 But for us also, to whom it (righteousness by faith) shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; 25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
People's unbelief changes nothing except that it willingly bars them from enjoying the salvation it brings.
It shouldn't be an unbelievable thing that God who made the heavens and the earth should raise the dead!
[My Offline Bible] Acts 26
8 Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?
He is risen and so we are raised with Him, sin and death have lost grip forever on us...we can now live in the newness of life, free from sin, its condemnation and guilt, free from death and its fear!
Happy Resurrection! He's Alive and so We are! Believe!
