Resurrection

LIVE…. LIVE…. LIVE!!! 

Life is for the Living, so Live!

Jesus shows up after the funeral and burial of Lazarus, where he finds Martha and Mary mourning over the death of their brother. Martha said to Jesus, "If you had been here, my brother would not have died. Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

Martha said to Jesus, "I know my brother will rise again in the resurrection at the last day." Jesus said to her, "I AM The Resurrection, and The Life, he who believes in me though he were dead, yet will he live, and he who is alive and believes in me will never die." 

So, believe God while you are living. Show your beliefs by how you live. We should live our lives to live again. Know that it's not over when they do the eulogy. Why do we who know Christ weep as though we have no hope, and or as if we will never see our loved ones again who were believers? Of course, we cry and are sad, but as believers and followers of Christ, we have hope! The world has no hope.

Jesus said, "I Am the Resurrection" he didn't say, he was going to be The Resurrection" so, why are we waiting to die to live? Do you believe there are Christians in the grave waiting on a trumpet as well as Jesus's return from heaven in order to live again? 

Resurrection is not an event, but a person! Jesus the Christ is the Resurrection!

Those who died under the law (Old Testament) was taught they would go to paradise, and it's there that the Messiah would come to deliver them from the wicked and be set free and made worthy to go to heaven. Paradise was down, beneath the earth, not up, not in heaven. Jesus changed the game when he finished his work on earth. Things would never be the same again.

Jesus the Christ defeated death, hell, and the grave, then went back up to the earth and entered his old dead body as the Resurrection! God's glory which is in the resurrection, glorified that fleshly body when he entered in and it became new and improved, a body without the curse from sin…having no limits.

Jesus told his followers before he was executed that he would not leave them comfortless (meaning, you will not die and go to paradise waiting on the resurrection as an event to raise you from the dead.) You won't have to wait to see me after death, "I Am with you always." The introduction of a newly afforded kingdom right, is to be with the Lord immediately after death.

Are they waiting in their graves for a trumpet or Jesus?

As believers why are we looking up to the sky waiting on Jesus? 

The same Christ that was raised from the dead is alive and living in us! We are resurrected while we live. We have the resurrection living inside us. How can we have Christ in us and not the resurrection, when Jesus is the Resurrection?

Jesus the Christ is the first to embody the new glorified body. When Jesus showed himself as the Resurrection, he was not even recognized by his own people. He walked through walls, sat down, and ate what his followers were eating and fellowshipped with them on several occasions. 

Included are my own personal experiences of leaving my physical body and going to a place only prepared by God. After my personal experiences, no one can ever convince me otherwise. My life has suffered because of what I witnessed and experienced. I've lost many relationships because people would rather believe the lies than the truth.

Whether you believe or not, there is life after this life. Unfortunately, many do not have the opportunity to come back to tell it and even when they do, most people will not believe them. 

Heaven is Real! Life after death is REAL! So is RESURRECTION.
