The Cornerstone Of Christianity

Something to think about.

The cornerstone of Christianity.

As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. 6 “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him.’” Mark 16:5-6 (NIV)

Not his virgin birth, not his sinless life but his resurrection. Our whole spiritual belief system rests on the resurrection. It rests on the God of creation breaking the laws of space and time, life and death to claim his son.  To bring the one that was sacrificed and died for our sins back to him and gave him a new life. This is our hope, our resurrection.
