ISAIAH 25: 6-9, 1 CORINTHIANS 15: 12-20, JOHN 20: 1-18<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sadducees according Matthew 22:23-33 came to question Jesus about resurrection because they don\u2019t believe in the resurrection, using the scenario of a woman who married 7 brothers because they were dying, and all died. The question was: whose wife will she be and Jesus said at the resurrection there will be no marriage because we will be like angels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many have said and many more are saying that there is no resurrection. Yet the resurrection of Jesus from the dead is a confirmation that we all shall rise like him from the dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to 1 Corinthians 15:12-20 AND<\/strong> 1 Thessalonians 4, 13<\/sup>Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. 14<\/sup>We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15<\/sup>According to the Lord’s own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16<\/sup>For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17<\/sup>After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18<\/sup>Therefore encourage each other with these words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, we are expected to encourage each other to remain steady in faith because Jesus actually rose from death<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Grace,<\/strong> 1 Corinthians 5, 16\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>So from now on we regard no one from a worldly\u00a0point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.\u00a017\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,\u00a0the new creation\u00a0has come: The old has gone, the new is here!\u00a018\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>All this is from God,\u00a0who reconciled us to himself through Christ\u00a0and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:\u00a019\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people\u2019s sins against them.\u00a0And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
