CHRIST AROSE

4. If Christ has not been raised, our
preaching is useless and so is your faith.
More than that, we are then found to be
false witnesses about God, for we have testified
about God that he raised Christ from the dead.
And if Christ has not been raised,
your faith is futile - you are still in your sins.
Then those also who have fallen
asleep in Christ are lost.
If only for this life we have hope in Christ,
we are to be pitied more than all men.
The Apostle Paul said…
1 Corinthians 15:14-19 (NIV)

5. There is

6. If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus
is Lord,” and believe in your heart that
God has raised Him from the dead, you
will be saved.

9. 1

14. 2 The Identity of Jesus

16. John 14:6 (NIV)
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth
and the life. No-one comes to the Father
except through me.”
John 11-25 (NIV)
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and
the life. He who believes in me will live, even
though he dies; and whoever lives and
believes in me will never die.”
Matthew 26:29 (NIV)
“I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the
vine from now on until that day when I drink it
anew with you in my Father’s kingdom.”

17. John 2:19-22 (NKJV)
Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy
this temple, and in three days I will raise it
up.” Then the Jews said, “It has taken forty-
six years to build this temple, and will You
raise it up in three days?”
But He was speaking of the temple of His
body. Therefore, when He had risen from the
dead, His disciples remembered that He had
said this to them; and they believed the
Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

18. John 10:17-18 (NKJV)
“Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay
down My life that I may take it again.
No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of
Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have
power to take it again.
This command I have received from My
Father.”

19. Our
Justification

20. Romans 3:24 (NKJV)
Being justified freely by His grace through
the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
Romans 5:9 (NKJV)
Having now been justified by His blood we
shall be saved from wrath through Him.

21. Romans 4:24-25 (mixed NIV and NKJV)
Righteousness shall be imputed to us
who believe in Him who raised up Jesus
our Lord from the dead,
who was delivered up for our offenses
and was raised for our justification.

22. God sent His Son
They called Him Jesus
He came to love heal and forgive
He lived and died to buy my pardon
An empty grave is there
To prove my Saviour lives

23. Because He lives
I can face tomorrow
Because He lives
All fear is gone
Because I know-ow-ow
He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives
