JESUS is RISEN and is ALIVE FOREVER!
Jesus
was made perfect after his crucifixion, death, and resurrection. “And being
made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey
him” (Hebrews 5:9). Jesus was glorified by the power of God. Jesus was once
again given life. Jesus became immortal. Jesus can longer die. Jesus has
eternal life (Romans 1:2–4, 6:6) (1 Corinthians 15:20).
Paul
explained it vividly. said: “For if we have been planted together in the [LIKENESS
OF HIS DEATH], we shall be also in the [LIKENESS OF HIS RESURRECTION]. Knowing
that Christ being [RAISED FROM THE DEAD DIETH NO MORE]; death hath no more
dominion over him” (Romans 6:5, 9).
Jesus’
death and resurrection was the most significant task in accomplishing his mission,
which he was sent to complete on this earth. This very act of laying down his
life and taking it up again, as commanded by his Father (John 10:17), is the
proof that God wanted people at that time to witness, and this is written as
testimony in the word of God for all to read and believe from that time to this
day, to the end of time.
Jesus
made reference to this in speaking about the resurrection: “God saying, ‘I am
the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. God is not the
God of the dead, but of the living’” (Matthew 22:32).
“For
as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in
himself; and hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is
the Son of man” (John 5:26–27).
Jesus
declared, said: “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for
evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).
