God raised Him from the dead

WORDs of Saving Grace - God raised Him from the dead

Romans 10:9  That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is THE single most important event in history. Without His ressurection we would all be lost to sin and without hope.

He died on the cross and that is an absolute fact that even worldly history does not deny. However, this scripture doesnt say to believe that He died on the cross, but rather belief in our heart that He is risen from the dead.

His ressurection is what makes Christianity different from all other religion throughout the world today and historically.

The ressurection:

Is a living hope:

1 Peter 1:3  ...a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

Takes away our sin :

1 Corinthians 15:17

And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

Is our justification :

Romans 4:25

Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

Is the reason for eternal life:

2 Corinthians 4:14

Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with him.

Is the very reason a Christians life is made different and new:

Romans 6:4

Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Is the very reason we can be changed and go to heaven to be with Him!

1 Corinthians 15:50  Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
