WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES EASTER MAKE? Easter Messages Rick Warren

What Does The Resurrection Mean? It Means...

1. Jesus is who he claimed to be. "I am the Resurrection and the Life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies." John 11:25 "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one can get to God the Father except by means of me." John 14:6 (LB)

2. Jesus has the power he claimed to have. "All power in heaven and on earth is given to me." Matt. 28:18 (Ph) "No one takes my life from me. I have the power to lay it down and I have the power to take it up again." John 10:18 (Ph)

3. Jesus does what he promises to do. "They will mock... and flog... and kill me; but after three days I will come back to life again." Mark 10:34 (LB) The angel said, `Don't be frightened! I know you are looking for Jesus who was crucified, but he isn't here! He has come back to life again, just as he said he would." Matt. 28:5-6 (LB)

Why Does the Resurrection Matter? Because Now ... 1. My past can be forgiven. "He has forgiven all our sins... and canceled every record of the debt we owed; Christ has done away with it by nailing it to the cross." Col. 3:14 (JB) "There is no condemnation awaiting those who belong to Christ." Rom. 8:1 (LB)

2. My present problems can be managed. "How incredibly great is his power to help those who believe Him ... the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead!" Eph. 1;20 (LB) "I am ready for anything through the strength of Christ who lives is me." Phil. 4:13 (Ph)

3. My future can be secured. "This is the way to have eternal life - by knowing the only true God and Jesus Christ, the one he sent to earth!" John 17:3 (LB) "We have been born again into a life full of hope through Christ's rising from the dead." 1 Peter 1:3

    Personal Narrative: My Spiritual Journey

    Doubts about my salvation beginning at the age of seven: Growing up in the church, I heard Gospel invitations frequently, and I began to doubt whether or not I truly believed the Gospel or if I had simply prayed a prayer. I started to pray for salvation on a regular basis, but I never truly had peace about my standing with God. In time, this uncertainty led to spiritual stagnation, and because I did not effectively address my uncertainty early on, it continued to haunt me for many years.…

    Lastly is the fact that Jesus is characterized as an actual touchable being, rather then just a spirit. In all four of the gospels, after Jesus returns, he is able to be touched and can move around. In the Book of Luke, 20:27, while Jesus stands among the disciples, Jesus says to Thomas “Put your finger here, and see my hands...” proving to all in the room that he truly was human, rather than a ghost.…

    PHIL240 Essay Set 2 101113

    When explaining the resurrection of Jesus, it is important to keep to the “minimal facts approach” by looking at some important facts. The first fact is that Jesus died by crucifixion. This highly evidenced occurrence has kept with the minimal facts approach because it is so widely attested. Not only was the crucifixion recorded in the four gospel accounts as well as a “number of non-Christian sources” (Habermas & Licona, 2004, p. 49).Lucian of Samosata, Mara Bar-Serapion and the central text of Rabbinic Judaism, the Talmud, all illustrate the death of Jesus. A “highly critical scholar of the Jesus Seminar, John Dominic Crossan, writes, “That he was crucified is as sure as anything historical can ever be” (Habermas & Licona, 2004, p. 49). While the crucifixion of Jesus is the beginning of explain the minimal facts, the more important fact is that Jesus’ disciples believed that he rose and appeared to them.…

    Theo 104 Reflection Paper

    Within this paper I will be reflecting over the first part of Theology 104. This class has addressed many topics that have given me a better understanding on Christianity, the Bible and most importantly Jesus Christ. I will be addressing two topics that I feel are very important to Christianity the first topic being the Importance of Personal Testimony and the second topic covering the Importance of Maintaining a Christian Lifestyle. Both of those topics I think help lay a foundation for an individual’s walk with Christ.…

    Minimal Facts Approach to the Resurrection

    The second fact is that Jesus’ disciples believed that He rose and appeared to them. What could transform a group of “fearful, cowering individuals who denied and abandoned Him [Jesus] at His arrest and execution into bold proclaimers of the gospel of the risen Lord” (Habermas & Licona, 2004, p. 50)? These men had nothing to gain from their claims. In fact, they remained consistent with their beliefs even in the face of beatings, torture, imprisonment, and their own martyrdom. Nine early and independent sources confirm that the disciples claimed the resurrection. These fall into three categories: the testimony of Paul about the disciples, the early church’s oral tradition, and the written works of the early church. Succinctly put, even when merely viewing the New Testament as an ancient collection of writings, there is strong evidence to assert…

    Jesus In Josh Mcdowell's More Than A Carpenter

    In the book, “More than a Carpenter,” Josh McDowell shows how Jesus Christ was more than just a teacher of good principles or a significant person in history. He was God in the flesh who entered the world and exclusively proved His deity. This book shows how Jesus is different from religious historical figures, guides the reader through proofs of Christianity, and logically shows that Jesus Christ was Lord. He shows that Jesus would not have died for a lie and that if Jesus did not rise from the grave, then he would not be the Messiah. Christ has changed many lives because he lived a perfect life, died on the cross for everyone’s sins, and rose from the grave.…

    “Compare and Contrast the Portrait of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of John.”

    In order to understand Jesus, we need to locate him in the first stories that were told about him. These of course, being the Gospels. People who are touched by the story of Jesus both then and now, respond in different ways. What remains true is that the story of Jesus continues to capture the imagination of people, inspiring hope and a new vision, just as Matthew and John did. Each of the four Gospels seeks to answer the same fundamental question put to Simon Peter by Jesus- “And who do you say I am?”…
