Resurrection of Christ is a Guarantee for Believers


Jesus came to the world and lived among man as man. He taught people about ‘The Kingdom of God’ and how to get in there. He taught that the only way to get into the Kingdom of God is to believe the only True God, His father in heaven and received His Son, Jesus Christ as Lord and saviour.
Jesus died for our sins on the cross so that we may have ‘eternal life in God’. He rose again on the third day and He sits at the right hand of God, the Father in heaven.

God gave Jesus Christ, all the authorities in heaven and on earth and commands us to tell all people about all these  (Matthew 28:18-20) In His authority, Jesus Christ give all His followers the right to become ‘the children of God’(John 1:12).
In His resurrection, Jesus Christ “has become the first-fruits of those who have fallen asleep” In 1 Corinthians 15 : 20). His resurrection is an assurance for all His followers that God will raise all believers on the last day.
Jesus Christ is coming again! The dead in Christ will be raised up, and those who remain and are alive at His coming will be changed and receive new, glorified bodies (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18).
Believers will be raised to meet Christ in His second coming (Rapture) to bring all believers to Him in heaven. On that day, we, believers will all sing a song of victory over death and sin :
“Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” (1 Corinthians 15:55).

May God bless you and make you His faithful child.
