What does Jesus´ resurrection mean to you?

Share |


To me and other sinners Jesus’ resurrection means complete comfort and peace, which I receive for myself through faith. His resurrection proves that:

  1. Jesus is God’s Son and everyone of His words is true.

    Joh. 10:18: I have power to lay it (my life) down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

    Heb. 6:18: It was impossible for God to lie.


  2. God has accepted His Son’s atoning sacrifice and because of it has reconciled the world unto Himself.

    Rom. 4:25: Who (Christ) was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.


  3. There will be a resurrection of all people. At that time those who have died in unbelief will be judged and condemned, but all believers in Christ will rise to everlasting life.

    Joh. 11:25: I am the Resurrection and the Life; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.

    1 Cor. 15: 12, 20-21: Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?... But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

    2 Cor. 5:10: For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that everyone may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
