🔥 THE RESURRECTION — THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING 🔥
Christianity does not stand on feelings, rituals, or moral improvement.
It stands on one historical, eternal reality:
Jesus Christ rose from the dead.
If the resurrection is true, everything Jesus said is true.
If the resurrection is true, sin was judged, death was defeated, and hope is secured.
And Scripture doesn’t present the resurrection as symbolism — it presents it as fact.

Christianity does not stand on feelings, rituals, or moral improvement.
It stands on one historical, eternal reality:
Jesus Christ rose from the dead.
If the resurrection is true, everything Jesus said is true.
If the resurrection is true, sin was judged, death was defeated, and hope is secured.
And Scripture doesn’t present the resurrection as symbolism — it presents it as fact.
“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.”
— John 11:25 (KJV)
📖 WHAT THE RESURRECTION REALLY MEANS (BIBLE EXPOUNDED)
🟡 R — Risen in Glory
The tomb wasn’t opened to let Jesus out — it was opened to let witnesses in.
“He is not here: for he is risen.”
— Matthew 28:6 (KJV)
The resurrection was public, physical, and undeniable.
🟡 E — Eternal Life Secured
Eternal life is not a reward you earn later — it’s a gift secured by a risen Savior.
“And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish.”
— John 10:28 (KJV)
No resurrection, no eternal life. But He lives — so the promise stands.
🟡 S — Sin Defeated
The resurrection is God’s receipt that the payment for sin was accepted.
“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
— 1 Corinthians 15:57 (KJV)
Sin didn’t win. The grave didn’t win. Christ did.
🟡 U — Undying Hope
Biblical hope is not wishful thinking — it’s anchored in a living Christ.
“Begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.”
— 1 Peter 1:3 (KJV)
Hope lives because He lives.
🟡 R — Redeemer Lives
Job spoke this long before the cross — and the resurrection proved it true.
“For I know that my redeemer liveth.”
— Job 19:25 (KJV)
Redemption isn’t theoretical. The Redeemer is alive.
🟡 R — Righteous Victory
Jesus didn’t escape death — He conquered it.
“Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.”
— Romans 6:9 (KJV)
Death has authority over no one who belongs to Him.
🟡 E — Empty Tomb
Christianity begins with an empty grave.
“And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.”
— Luke 24:3 (KJV)
No body. No cover-up. No replacement story. Just truth.
🟡 C — Conquered the Grave
Jesus didn’t merely come back — He now holds authority over death itself.
“I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore… and have the keys of hell and of death.”
— Revelation 1:18 (KJV)
Keys mean control.
🟡 T — Truth Fulfilled
The resurrection wasn’t Plan B — it fulfilled Scripture.
“All things must be fulfilled, which were written… concerning me.”
— Luke 24:44 (KJV)
Prophecy met reality.
🟡 I — Immortal King
Jesus didn’t rise to die again — He reigns eternally.
“The King eternal, immortal, invisible.”
— 1 Timothy 1:17 (KJV)
🟡 O — Overcame Death
The resurrection stripped death of its power.
“That through death he might destroy him that had the power of death.”
— Hebrews 2:14 (KJV)
Death is now a defeated enemy, not a final authority.
🟡 N — Name Above All Names
The resurrection exalted Christ above every throne and title.
“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow.”
— Philippians 2:9–10 (KJV)
🔥 WHY THIS MATTERS TODAY
The resurrection means:
• Your faith is not in vain
• Your sin is fully paid for
• Your future is secure
• Your Savior is alive
Paul said it plainly:
“If Christ be not raised, your faith is vain.”
— 1 Corinthians 15:17 (KJV)
But then he declares the truth that anchors us:
“But now is Christ risen from the dead.”
— 1 Corinthians 15:20 (KJV)
✝️ FINAL TRUTH
Christianity is not built on a memory.
It’s built on a living Lord.
Jesus Christ lives forever.
And because He lives, everything changes.
