The resurrection of Christ was the most significant event in all history!
The resurrection of Christ is what set Jesus apart from all others
“…and declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead.” Romans 1:4
Because of the crucifixion we can be forgiven of our sins
“For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,” 1 Corinthians 15:3
Because of the resurrection we have the promise of eternal life
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,” 1 Peter 1:3
The resurrection is an essential element of the Gospel story
“For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,” 1 Corinthians 15:3-4
The only way to be saved is by believing this gospel
“Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you–unless you believed in vain.” 1 Corinthians 15:1-2
It is time for us all to remember the message and mission of Jesus and believe His gospel.
Jesus – “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.” Mark 1:15
Happy Resurrection Day!
