PHOTO: Jesus our Lord . . . was raised to life for our justification. - Romans 4:24-25
Read: 1 Corinthians 15:1-11
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is one of the most well-established events in history. Paul cited as irrefutable evidence the more than 50 eyewitnesses who saw Jesus after He arose, most of whom were still alive when the apostle wrote to the Corinthians.
Just as certain is the fact that Christ's sacrifice on the cross of Calvary fully paid the penalty for the sin of all mankind, so that everyone who trusts Him as Savior receives forgiveness. And it is Christ's resurrection that guarantees this. If just one sin had been unatoned for, Jesus would not have come out of the tomb.
In his book The Resurrection of Jesus the Christ, author Fred John Meldau underscores the significance of Jesus' resurrection by describing Israel's annual Day of Atonement ritual. Meldau writes: "If [the High Priest] offered correctly, he came forth in due time; but . . . if he failed to offer correctly, he died there behind the veil. In like manner, the coming forth of Jesus the Christ, in His resurrection, after His atonement for our sins on the cross, shows that His offering was accepted. The empty tomb is God's 'Amen' to Christ's 'It is finished.'"
When Christ emerged from the tomb, our sin was completely paid for. His resurrection was proof positive!
Christ's empty tomb guarantees our full salvation.
