Today we are talking about three gifts from the Resurrection.
1. Life beyond the grave.
For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. – 1 John 5:4 (ESV)
2. Joy beyond belief.
For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning. – Psalm 30:5 (ESV)
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. – Philippians 4:4 (ESV)
3. We are promised a future.
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. – 1 Corinthians 15:57 (ESV)
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. – Romans 6:23 (ESV)
