Resurrection Reality

A first century pastor and missionary named Paul wrote, “Christ has indeed been raised from the dead” (1 Corinthians 15:20). Big word: Indeed! The point is that we must not think of Jesus’ resurrection like a happy ending to another epic fable.

​

The resurrection is not legend. It really happened.

Easter is not just a holiday. Easter is history.

On time’s infinite line, Jesus’ resurrection is the one moment that defines reality for us all.

​

If Christ remained dead, he is a fraud and failure. But Christ has indeed been raised. So, the reality: Jesus is exactly what he claimed to be—the Son of God, our Lord and Savior. If Christ remained dead, then the grave is the final, ugly, rotten end of us all. But Christ has indeed been raised. So, the reality is Jesus’ resurrection proves that “all will be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:22).

 

The reality of the resurrection does not just change our future, but the way we look at life now.
