1 Corinthians 15:57
King James Version
57 But thanks be to God,
which giveth us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ.
The death of JESUS was not the end.
It was only the beginning.
Matthew 28:1-7
King James Version
28 In the end of the sabbath,
as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week,
came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary
to see the sepulchre.
2 And, behold,
there was a great earthquake:
for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven,
and came and rolled back the stone from the door,
and sat upon it.
3 His countenance was like lightning,
and his raiment white as snow:
4 And for fear of him the keepers did shake,
and became as dead men.
5 And the angel answered and said unto the women,
Fear not ye:
for I know that ye seek Jesus,
which was crucified.
6 He is not here:
for he is risen,
as he said.
Come,
see the place where the Lord lay.
7 And go quickly,
and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead;
and, behold,
he goeth before you into Galilee;
there shall ye see him:
lo, I have told you.
The RESURRECTION of JESUS established His GOSPEL.
Dealing another blow to the enemy, whose simplistic thinking cannot grasp the GLORY of GOD.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
King James Version
15 Moreover, brethren,
I declare unto you the gospel
which I preached unto you,
which also ye have received,
and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved,
if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you,
unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all
that which I also received,
how that Christ died for our sins
according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried,
and that he rose again the third day
according to the scriptures:
JESUS is our ONLY HOPE.
Let us comfort each other with this, then.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-14
King James Version
13 But I would not have you to be ignorant,
brethren,
concerning them which are asleep,
that ye sorrow not,
even as others which have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again,
even so them also which sleep in Jesus
will God bring with him.
