The Prophetic Resurrection

Sunday's message is Part 2 of our In Fact series leading up to Easter. Last week we focused on the historical fact of Jesus’ resurrection, and now we focus on the prophetic fact of our resurrection. If death has no respect for people, it is certainly no respecter of childhood. One of the earliest aspects of every child’s loss of innocence is their first encounter with death. It is revolting to us, and we know death is our enemy in the depth of our hearts. The Corinthians knew Jesus was their Savior, but they struggled, as we do, to understand what that meant beyond this life. Paul pointed them to God and taught them how Jesus’ historical resurrection ensures our future resurrection.
