Resurrection

Will Jesus Be the Only Person with Scars in His Kingdom? 

January 23, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - 1 Cor 15:44, Glorified Bodies, Resurrection
Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is (1 John 3:2). Steve asked the question that is the title of this blog. It is

Three Days That Changed the World (John 19:28–20:31)

April 18, 2022 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Easter, Everlasting Life, Resurrection, victorious living
On Friday we celebrate the cross of Christ. On Sunday we celebrate His resurrection. The Apostle John makes much of these three days in his Gospel. John stresses the fact that Jesus’ death and resurrection prove that He is the Christ, the Son of God, the Promised One who guarantees everlasting life to all who

Jesus is the Event (John 11:23-26)

February 3, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Resurrection
God hates death. Even so, in Christ, God transformed death to make it part of His ministry. This quote from Andy Root struck me: “The movement through death to life is the very shape of God’s ministry” (Root, Christopraxis, p. 105). How has the movement from death to life become the shape of God’s ministry?

Evidence for the Resurrection: James, the Brother of Jesus

April 17, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Easter, James, Jesus, Resurrection
Christians around the world celebrated the day when Jesus rose from the dead. Truthfully, we do that every Sunday, but, by tradition and convention, it’s especially celebrated once a year—Easter Sunday. Why do I believe that Jesus was resurrected? Admittedly, the resurrection is an extraordinary claim. Yes, there are many documented cases of people dying

Doctrinal Emotive Behavior Therapy in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

January 16, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Death, doctrinal emotive behavior therapy, Rapture, Resurrection, Thessalonians
On Sunday morning, I had “house church” with the kids. They liked it. We gathered together, sang a Psalm; Daphne read the Scripture (Luke 12:32-34), and we started discussing it. The kids had been fighting over toys recently, so we discussed the reason why. Why do they find it so hard to share their toys?

Faith Is Futile If Jesus Did Not Rise from the Dead (1 Corinthians 15:17)

May 3, 2019 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - 1 Corinthians 15:17, Easter, Faith, Resurrection, saving faith
“And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins!” Alternative history novels explore what life would be like today if a major event in human history turned out differently. For example, Harry Turtledove’s Southern Victory explores what the United States would have been like if the South had

Breakfast on the Beach (John 21:12)

March 20, 2019 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - breakfast, Grace, John, Resurrection
God’s grace shows up in little moments that are often practically unnoticeable. For example, read John 21. Jesus had died, risen again, appeared to the disciples, and gave them a commission to be sent out into the world. No wonder Peter promptly declared, “I am going fishing” (v 3)! I would have done the same.That’s

Does Hebrews 11:13-16 Contradict the New Earth?

June 4, 2018 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Hebrews 11:13-16, Resurrection, The New Earth, The New Jerusalem
I received this email question: I have been going through the book, The Ten Most Misunderstood Words in the Bible, with my pastor and we have both enjoyed it and have been challenged by it. I have learned much about heaven from it and am excited to live again on the new earth for eternity,

The Good and the Evil

May 15, 2018 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Believe, Daniel, Good, Resurrection
  Q. Doesn’t John 5:28-29 show that doing good works is a condition of salvation? How do you understand it? A. Good question. Taken on its own, that can be a puzzling passage. You would think “the good” refers to good deeds, and “the evil” refers to sins. But is that right? There’s a theme
