The Resurrection Of Christ - Part 2 (2 of 2)
Jesse M. Hendley
I Corinthians 5:13-19
This is a dying world. We are being constantly
reminded that we are a dying people. Job reminds us
that, "Man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly
upward" (Job 5:7).
But There Is Hope
The Christian message offers to us dying men the
joyful anticipation of a glorious future. It is a
message from God, recorded in His infallible Word, the
Bible, and it has to do with one great Personality,
God's Son and our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
"Christ Jesus, Our HOPE," Paul writes to hopeless men,
and we look in vain for the victory over death and the
grave from any other source, whether the gods of the
heathen world or from weak, sinning and suffering men.
In the final great crisis of our lives, CHRIST is our
only hope! As we think of Christ, we think of Him in
ETERNITY past, creating all things, becoming a man,
dying on the cross for our sins, His Resurrection from
the dead, His living to make intercession for us and
His glorious coming again to restore all things and
establish God's Kingdom. All these great truths are
precious to the believing soul.
At this Easter season, we want to think about HIS
RESURRECTION and what it means to every one of us
sinners who have believed in Him, and made Him Savior
and Master of our lives. For if Christ did not rise
from the dead, Paul says so plainly and unmistakably,
"But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is
Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then is
our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea,
and we are found false witnesses of God; because we
have testified of God that He raised up Christ: Whom
He raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For
if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And
if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are
yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen
asleep in Christ are perished. If ...
