Celebrating Jesus’s Resurrection

By Donna

After His resurrection, Jesus helped his disciples to understand the scriptures by telling them “Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations.. (Luke 24:46,47) Paul states: “For since by  man came death, by  man  came also the resurrection of the dead.  For  as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.” (1 Corinthians 15: 21-22!)  Job summed it up by stating, “As for me, I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth; (19:21)  “The resurrection of Jesus  changes the face of death for all His people. Death is no longer a prison, but a passage into God’s presence.      Easter says you can put truth in a grave, but it won’t stay there” (Clarence W. Hall)
