The Resurrection of Christ

As I meditated upon how the apostle Paul said, “For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance ... that he was raised on the third day” (1 Corinthians 15:3a-4, NIV), this caused me to ponder of how Christ died for my sin encouraging me to thank Jesus for giving eternal life through His Death & Resurrection. Truly, I noted how one modern-day religious teacher said, “It is not necessary to believe in the bodily resurrection of Christ in order to be a Christian” and he also claim to say how “we may freely say that the bones of Jesus are still lying somewhere in the land of Israel” as he highlighted this point inside the Every Day Light online devotional text today.

Indeed, I read how Peter was adamant about how he couldn’t find Jesus body and was stunned that He has risen from the grave indeed (John 20:7, NIV). Hence, this encourages me to rejoice to know how He has raised me from the death of my sin (Acts 2:24, NIV) as I did my weekend’s reading.

Do you believe in the resurrection of Christ today?

Foot-wash

As I did my today’s meditation, I pondered upon how the disciple Simon Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, do you wash my feet? .... You shall never...
