William Shakespeare

Imagine a soldier disarming a bomb, carefully removing its power to cause destruction. In the same way, Jesus disarmed the power of death through his own sacrificial death on the cross. This image reminds us that even in the face of death, we can find peace and hope in Christ's victory.

2. The Risen Life

Death comes as a consequence of sin, life is the reward of justification (through Christ).

Death is the absence of God, Life is a right standing before Him.

Whether or not a person is indwelt by the Spirit is truly a life-and-death matter.

And if the Spirit of the one who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, the one who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also make alive your mortal bodies through his Spirit who lives in you.

Lives In You

1 Corinthians 3:16 “Do you not know that you are God’s temple and the Spirit of God dwells in you?”

You are the Spirits dwelling place

You House the Spirit of God

It is not temporary

Resurrection lives inside of you thats why it is impossible to be dead for a day

Mark 2:9 “Which is easier to say to the paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say ‘Get up and pick up your stretcher and walk’?”

But get up in their face and do the thing they told you you cant

He only spoke a word

Words are like seeds

In these seeds were the trees and the plants

This WORD Today has Resurrection in it

Let that Tree/Plants spring Forth

Even in times of Famine

He lived in abundance (Egypt-Josef)
