Every year, Christians celebrate the Resurrection Day of Jesus Christ. But although Christians celebrate and confess the resurrection of Jesus, do Christians believe in the resurrection of Jesus from the dead or do they only celebrate the resurrection of Jesus because of tradition and confess the resurrection of Jesus because it’s part of the Christian faith? Does the walk of Christians confirm their faith in the resurrection of Jesus Christ?
Christians believe in the resurrection of Jesus, but say they are sinners?
Ибо если мертвые не воскреснут, тогда не Христос воскрес: И если Христос не воскреснет, твоя вера тщетна; вы все еще в своих грехах (1 Коринфянам 15:16-17)
If you call yourself a Christian but still believe that you are a poor sinner and that you are powerless and because of this belief, you keep doing the works of the flesh and persevere in sin, you don’t believe in the resurrection of Jesus from the dead.
This is what the Word says, because you believe that you are still in your sins and will remain in your sins. Since a sinner is not redeemed from his sins, but still lives in his sins in enmity with God.
The cross and the blood of Jesus are often used as a permit to sin, but the cross and the blood of Jesus are never meant to be used as a permit to keep sinning and to justify sin and to compromise with the sins of people, but to destroy sin and the sinful nature of man (Читайте также: Можете ли вы продолжать грешить под благодатью?? и The love and grace of God doesn’t compromise with sin)
As long as a person wants to sin and uses Bible verses, which are taken out of context, to approve his sins and sinful behavior and the person can keep sinning without feeling guilty and serve the will and the lusts of the flesh, it proves that the person is still the old man with his sin nature and still love sin (Ой. Джон 8:34, римляне 6, Галатам 5:19-21, 1 Джон 2:15-17; 3:7-11).
Jesus has not only taken care of the fruit of death, что такое грех, but with the death, which reigns in the (sinful) flesh of the old man (Ой. римляне 3:23-31; 8:1-4, Ефесянам 1:7, Колоссянам 1:13-23, евреи 9:11-15; 13:12, 2 Питер 1:4, 1 Джон 1:7).
Jesus has overcome the devil and death! The death is defeated and is put in submission to Jesus, since Jesus has the keys of hell and death. And eventually, death shall be the last enemy, which shall be destroyed and cast into the eternal lake of fire (Ой. 1 Коринфянам 15:24-28, 2 Тимоти 1:10, Hebreeën 2:14. Откровение 1:18; 20:14).
The weakness of the flesh
What God’s people couldn’t do in the Old Covenant because of the weakness of the flesh, wherein sin and death reign, God’s people could do in the New Covenant, верой и возрождением во Христе, which means the death of the flesh (пожилой человек) and the resurrection from the spirit from the dead (новичок (Ой. римляне 3:31; 6:19-23;8:1-4 Читайте также: Let sin no longer reign as king)).
The power of the Spirit
Благословен Бог и Отец Господа нашего Иисуса Христа, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time (1 Питер 1:3-5)
If you believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, you believe that Jesus has overcome the devil and death and that Jesus has all authority in heaven and on earth.
If you believe in the resurrection of Jesus, you believe in regeneration.
And if you are born of water and Spirit and have become a son of God (это касается как мужчин, так и женщин), you are no longer a sinner, who has the devil as father and is an enemy of God and lives in rebellion and disobedience to God and His Word in iniquity in darkness, because you are dead to sin, which reigns in the old man.
You have been justified in Christ by His blood and have become righteous and holy (set apart from the world and devoted unto God) and belong to God and live in union with Him and shall do the righteous works of faith and bear the fruit of the Spirit(Ой. римляне 5:9-10, 2 Коринфянам 5:21, Ефесянам 1:7, Колоссянам 1:14 (Читайте также: What about grace and works?).
From your new position in Christ, you shall walk after the Spirit by faith in obedience to Him and отбросить старика и надеть нового человека and live as a victor.
If you believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ and you have been quickened in Him through regeneration, you shall no longer remain silent and compromise with the world and approve of sin and let the sinners, who belong to death and live as slaves of sin in darkness, быть. Because you want them to be saved as well.
Therefore you shall be a living hope for sinners and preach in boldness in the power of the Holy Spirit the truth and the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Living Hope for all people, so that they will also hear the truth and have the ability to be delivered from the power of darkness by faith and regeneration in Christ and receive power to become sons of God and become partakers of the Divine nature and in the resurrection of the dead and the judgment, inherit eternal life.
