Jesus is alive and forever more, we also rose with victorious over sin and death.

once lived, and there is no historical record of where his grave is because it's not there. And that's why we don't go to Israel to see the bones and some leftovers of Jesus. He rose from the dead! And his own kind of resurrection is not the one that they just open the door for him to come out. He triumphed over death and took the keys. That's why we call him the firstborn from the dead, because nobody has ever triumphed over death. He's alive, and that is the reason why we are alive. This is the foundation of our faith. We are not serving a dead God. We are not serving a dead Messiah. He rose from the grave! What is the hope? That when believers die now, that we don't mourn like unbelievers, that we know that in fullness of time we'll see them also. All your uncles, all the people you've once known that have gone to good— it's just a matter of time. One day soon we'll be together again. Glory to God. He rose and we rose with him.
