If there is no resurrection, not even Jesus has been raised. And if He didn’t rise from death, we’re doomed. That would mean we are destined to be mastered by sin for the rest of our lives, held captive by the power of Satan, and have no hope beyond the moment when our lungs stop breathing.
Thankfully, Jesus not only taught that resurrection was a biblical concept, He demonstrated it by personally rising from the grave. Sin could not control Him. The devil couldn’t hold Him down. Death could not defeat Him.
When we trust in Jesus, submitting control of our lives over to Him, we’re assured that we too will enjoy a resurrection like His. The day is coming when the bodies of all who believed will be raised to life. All believers will be given glorified bodies that are incapable of sinning or dying. Our glorified bodies will be united with our souls, and we will live in the presence of the Lord forever.
My heart rejoices when I contemplate that truth. On your best days and on your lowest days, I hope the assurance of what Jesus has in store for all believers brings you joy as well.
