"Because He Lives"


"Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also." (John 14:19)


"The divinity of Christ finds its surest proof in his resurrection (Rom.1:4). Christ's sovereignty also depends on his resurrection (Rom.14:9). Again, our justification hangs on Christ's resurrection (Rom.4:25). Our very regeneration depends on his resurrection (1Pet.1:3). And most certainly our ultimate resurrection rests here (Rom.8:11). The silver thread of resurrection runs through all the blessings, from regeneration onward to our eternal glory, and binds them together."

(C.H. Spurgeon)
