Resurrection of Our Savior

Resurrection of Our Savior

Jesus Christ,
died upon the cross,
buying back our every sin.
Jesus died,
Jesus was resurrected on
the third day.
Conquering death.
Revelation 1: 10-18
"On the Lord's day
I was in the Spirit, and
I heard behind me a
loud voice like a trumpet,
which said: 'Write on
a scroll what you see
and send it to the seven
churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna,
Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis,
Philadelphia and Laodicea.
I turned around to see
the voice that was speaking
to me. And when I turned I
saw seven golden lamp stands,
and among the lamp stands
was someone like a son of man,
dressed in a robe reaching
down to his feet and with a
golden sash around his chest.
His head and hair were
white like wool, as white as snow,
and his eyes were like blazing fire.
His feet were like bronze glowing
in a furnace, and his voice was
like the sound of rushing waters.
In his right hand
he held seven stars, and out
of his mouth came a sharp
double-edged sword. His
face was like the sun shining
in all its brilliance.
When I saw him, I fell
at his feet as though dead.
Then he placed his right hand
on me and said:
'Do not be afraid. I am
the first and the last.
I am the living one;
I was dead, and behold
I am alive for ever and ever!
And I hold the keys of death
and hades.'"
Jesus is alive!
Yes! Jesus is our living hope.
In Jesus we have the hope of glory.
By Jesus's resurrection,
all who believe, will be saved.
1 Peter 1: 3-8
"Praise be to the God
and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!
In his great mercy he has given us
new birth into a living hope
through the resurrection of
Jesus Christ from the dead,
And into an inheritance that can
never perish, spoil or fade - kept in
heaven for you,
who through faith are shielded
by God's power until the coming
of the salvation that is ready to be
revealed in the last time.
In this way you greatly rejoice,
though now for a little while
you may of had to suffer grief
in all kinds of trials.
These have come so that
your faith - of greater worth
than gold, which perishes
even though refined by fire -
may be proved genuine and may
result in praise, glory and honor
when Jesus Christ is revealed.
Though you have not seen him,
you love him; and even though
you do not see him now, you
believe in him and are filled with an
inexpressible and glorious joy,
or you are receiving the
goal of your faith, the salvation
of your souls."
The love of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ, guides true, humble,
meek, God-fearing Christians
through each and every day.
The faith that Jesus lived by,
brought Him glory.
Resurrection from the dead
has raised Jesus, to the
right hand of His Father in
heaven above.
Those found in Christ
have been renewed, reborn.
by the Holy Spirit.
2 Corinthians 5: 14 - 20
"For Christ's love compels us,
because we are convinced that
one died for all, and therefore
all died.
And he died for all,
that those who live should
no longer live for themselves
but for him who died for them
and was raised again.
So from now on we regard
no one from a worldly point
of view. Though we once regarded
Christ in this way, we do so no
longer.
Therefore if anyone is in Christ,
he is a new creation;
the old has gone, the new has
come!
All this is from God, who
reconciled us to himself through
Christ and gave us the ministry
of reconciliation:
that God was reconciling
the world to himself in Christ,
not counting men's sins against
them. And he has committed
to us the message of reconciliation.
We are therefore Christ's ambassadors,
as though God were making his
appeal through us. We implore you
on Christ's behalf. Be reconciled
to God.
God made him who had
no sin to be sin for us, so
that we in him might become
the righteousness of God."
All believers are drawn,
to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Through His resurrection.
Jesus died in the flesh,
overcoming death.
Jesus was resurrected in the Spirit.
Therefore all have overcome
death.
By means of the resurrection,
Christians are drawn to Jesus.
Romans 5: 12-18
"Therefore just as sin
entered the world through one
man, and death through sin,
and in this way death came
to all men, because all sinned -
for before the law was given,
sin was in the world.
But sin is not taken into account
when there is no law.
Nevertheless death reigned
from the time of Adam to
the time of Moses, even over
those who did not sin by
breaking a commandment, as did
Adam, who was a pattern of
the one to come.
But the gift is not like the
trespass of the one man, how much
more did God's grace and
the gift that came by the grace
of the one man, Jesus Christ,
overflow to the many!
Again the gift of God
is not like the result of the
one man's sin:
The judgment followed one sin
and brought condemnation, but the
gift followed many trespasses
and brought justification.
For if by the trespass of one
man, death reigned through that
one man,
how much more will those
who receive God's abundant
provision of grace and of
the gift of righteousness
reign in life through the one man,
Jesus Christ.
Consequently just as the
result of one trespass was
condemnation for all men,
so also the result of one act
of righteousness was justification
that brings life for all men."
Resurrection to eternal life,
for all believers. By God's grace.
Glory be to Jesus Christ,
our resurrected Lord and Savior.
John 3: 15
"That everyone who believes
in him may have eternal life."
Hallelujah! Praise God.
Amen
