"If Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still in your sins." - v17 The hope that we have as believers is rooted not only in the cross, but also in the resurrection. Jesus died for our sins, but if He had not conquered death through His resurrection, we are all still lost!
I am so grateful for the cross today. I am even more grateful for the empty tomb. Jesus lived His life for us, died a sinner's death in our place, and conquered death through His resurrection. This is the gospel. Do you fully embrace this truth for yourself?
Live strong today.
... and if you believe for any other reason... it is all in vain! Don't just believe for a better life here on earth (which is great!!)...But the reason for true belief is for the hope of eternal life with God!!
