The Resurrection Of Jesus The Christ

“A wall of fire is rising and in the ashes, I see the bones of my people. Not only those people whose dark hollow faces I see daily in the fields, but all those souls who have gone ahead to haunt my dreams. At night I relive once more the last caresses from the hand of a loving father, a valiant love, a beloved friend” (a wall 319).

However, Christ’s resurrection ensures our regeneration. We have been born anew to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Peter explicitly connects Jesus’ resurrection with our regeneration or new birth (1 Peter 1:3-4). When Jesus rose from the dead, he had a new quality of life, a “resurrection life” in a human body and the human spirit that were perfectly suited for fellowship also obedience to God forever. In his resurrection, Jesus earned for us a new life. Notably, we do not receive all the new “resurrection life” when we become Christians, for our bodies remain as they were, still subject to weakness, aging, and death. But in our spirits, we are made alive with new resurrection power.

“My heart doth joy that yet all in my life/ I found no man but he was true to me./ I shall have glory by this losing day;” (IV.V.34-36).

Images and snippets from the Messianic prophecies I’d heard my entire life engulfed half of my mind–the half that wasn’t completely fixated on the heavenly being, which I was now beginning to register was an angel. It was the only thing it could

The speaker finally talks about how goodness and mercy follow him and how he will live in God’s house eternally (Anonymous 6). The speaker has followed God and he was blessed with a good life. When he dies, he will live with God in Heaven. The tone of the speaker is that of someone who has suffered and earned a just reward.

Crucifixion, the word makes one automatically think of Jesus Christ, and His death on the cross by to Romans. Even if there is no previous history of Christian faith, the image of Jesus on the cross is still prominent when thinking of crucifixion. Crucifixion, the definition given by Merriam-Webster dictionary is “the crucifying of Jesus.” Gerard Sloyan states, “Jesus of Nazareth in Galilee died on the cross at the hands of Roman justice, hundreds of thousands were subjected to the cruel punishment before and after Him. Yet one is hard-pressed to provide the name of another victim of crucifixion” (1). As infamous as Jesus’ crucifixion is, there are still some that doubt, not about the crucifixion of Jesus, but did he in fact die on the

“Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. But he has risen! He is not here!" says Mark 16:6. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the greatest and most miraculous event in human history. Many believe though, it is a great historical problem. But, when we look at the evidence, the truth of the resurrection provides the most valid explanation. Though skepticism about the resurrection of Jesus exists; the empty tomb, the appearances of Christ after his death, and the violent deaths of the apostles, provide well-founded evidence for the resurrection of Christ.

The resurrected appearance in John20 is setting the example for all believers’ encountering Jesus, and paves a way for believer’s relationship with the Lord. Mary is still trying to figure out where her Lord has been taken to. She turns towards Jesus but unable to identify Him. Jesus ask Mary why she was weeping. And whom are you looking for. Mary mistaking called Jesus a gardener, and ask Him if carried the Lord away and if so what did He do with the Lord. Jesus then called Mary by name, and she turned to Him and spoke Rabbouni, which is Hebrew for teacher. Mary was the very first person that Jesus commissioned with the message about His resurrection and of all believer’s as God’s children. Jesus has instructed Mary not to try to hold

Will there be no fainting, vanity, nor wasting away in the crux of my soul, as my Lord is slipping me safely through the snags and snares woven into the tapestry of my life. Waiting is simplified, for there is a time for everything expected, as well as, unexpected.

Introduction: I came across an article on BBC news written on April 9,2017 that stated, A quarter of people who describe themselves as Christians in Great Britain do not believe in the resurrection of Jesus. To take the resurrection out of Christianity is like taking the heat out of fire, the darkness out of the night, all the blood out of a man. Simply put, you cannot separate the resurrection from Christianity. The resurrection of Christ is the hinge on which Christianity hangs. It is the foundation of our faith. Yet there are many who try to refute this momentous history of the church. Josh McDowell said, “The resurrection of Jesus Christ is either one of the most wicked, vicious, heartless hoaxes ever foisted on the minds of human

The “Dream of The Rood” is considered one of the finest of religious poems written during the Anglo-Saxon period (Book). The poem begins with the narrator, whom the reader later discovers is the rood, stating that he or she is going to talk about a dream. In said dream, the most beautiful tree is spotted glistening with gold and gems; the tree then begins to bleed from the right side. The entirety of the poem is describing, from the rood’s point of view, the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The poem has many aspects of Anglo-Saxon literature, and differs in several ways from the actual bible telling of the crucifixion; in “The Dream of The Rood,” Jesus is depicted as more of an anglo-saxon like warrior, the cross endures more pain than Jesus himself, and

The change of Jesus' disciples from a frightened, despondent, frustrated band to the courageous preachers of Jesus as Messiah and the instrument of salvation was triggered by his resurrection.

In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. 3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.

“Divinity is always where one least expects to find it” –Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, Life of Christ. In perhaps the greatest twist of irony known to man, our Lord and Savior; the Alpha and the Omega; the Breather of stars, Aligner of planets, and the Divine Word made flesh was born to a seemingly lowly carpenter in a no name town. The Gospels, which are our main source for the life and death of Jesus Christ, give supporting evidence which prove that Christ not only claimed to be Divine, but showed He was.
