This verse is the basis of all of Christianity…and what makes Jesus different from all great religious leaders across time. In the end they all died, including Jesus, but only Jesus was resurrected from the grave. And the words, “He has risen”, then became the greatest words of hope for any Christian today, for in it is the promise of eternal life. II Corinthians 4:14 gives us this blessed hope when it says, “Because we know that the One Who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us…” Jesus is risen and the tomb is empty and because of that we too now have new life to His glory!
