We believe we are alive to God because we KNOW Christ is!John Farley
Pastor-Teacher Sunday, October 26, 2014 We believe we are alive to God because we KNOW Christ is!Our Lord’s death and resurrection ended the reign of sin for all believers. We are united with Christ in His death and resurrection. In verses 6 and 7, Starting in verse 8, he turns his focus to the resurrection of Christ and the implications of that. the implications of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ when it comes to human suffering. The thing perhaps more than any other thing that makes Jesus universal -in the sense of approachable by ANYONE- the joy set before Him must have included seeing His own death … …as the end of the path of human suffering and therefore the way to overcome it. His resurrection therefore is the oh-so- real answer to all our sorrow and all our tears. |
