WHY I KNOW JESUS CHRIST A ROSE FROM THE GRAVE
Philippians 3: 10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
(1) Because Jesus said he would.
John 2: 19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
In three days I will raise it.
Deity will no and can not be destroyed.
This was just a transition from human to hevenly.
(2) The scriptures said he would.
Luke 24: 25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
From Moses to Matthew the shadow
From Matthew to John the substance
From John to Revelation the shining sovereign Son
Revelations 22: 21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
(3) The Holy Spirit said so.
Romans 8: 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
The Holy Spirit witnessed his birth
The Holy Spirit witnessed his Baptism
The Holy Spirit witnessed his bodily resurrection.
(4) The Saints said arose.
Acts 4: 33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
The excitement of resurrected his body was real.
Holy Spirits power is proof.
The early Church is proof.
(5) The guards at grave said he arose.
Matthew 28: 11 Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.
They looked like dead men pale.
They were shaking like a leaf in the wind
The guards were paid to lie about it.
They were present spread the news.
(6) Our Salivation says he arose.
1st Thessalonians 4: 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him..
New birth proof enough.
Baptism as a memorial.
New life new Lord new love final proof.
(7) The sentence of the lost
Philippians 2: 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
That fearful day will come
Have faith in Christ today.
Doubters will then be fully convinced to late.
