Death was mandated in order to meet the demands of our Heavenly Father and it happened in the mind of God before the foundation of the world was even laid (Revelation 13:8)
We can't believe in a Savior who wasn't born from a virgin and the Holy Spirit.
We can't believe in a Savior who slept with Mary Magdelene or committed fornication or ANY sin.
We can't believe in a Savior who did not die for the express purposes of being raised again.
Any other "Jesus" does not have the ability to save your soul, resurrect your spirit man while you are alive or provide you eternal life with our Heavenly Father once you cease to exist on this side. His death matters and who died matters and how He was when He died all matters otherwise talking about the Resurrection is all in vain and does NOT matter.
4) Death was needed in order for the Resurrection to be necessary.
Our lives have meaning and purpose by the ONE who created us. He loves us and created the way for us to be with Him always; on earth and in eternity. But how we connect to Him begins with what we believe. Romans 10:9 says,
that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
Let us pray:
Dear Lord and Savior we thank You for Your great plan of salvation and the miracle working power that is available to ANYone who believes. Thank You for dying in our place & being raised from the dead. Come into our hearts and rule and reign as the King You are. We humbly serve You. We gratefully love You and we sincerely worship You for You are the Great I AM and our risen Savior. Holy Spirit give us the boldness to be mighty witnesses to what we believe in our hearts. These things we ask in Jesus' name! AMEN!
