TOPIC: The Determining Factor
And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty. 1 Corinthians 15:14
Recommended Reading: Ephesians 1:19-21
Easter is by far the oldest of the two observances since “the Lord’s Day” (Revelation 1:10)—the day of Christ’s resurrection—was observed as a day for meeting and celebration soon after the Resurrection. And well it should have been, for the apostle Paul wrote that the resurrection of Christ is the determining factor in Christianity. Without the Resurrection, our preaching and our faith are all in vain (1 Corinthians 15:14, 17-19). Without the Resurrection, the faith that has changed the world is without foundation. No wonder Easter is the most-attended service at churches every year.
As you celebrate the Resurrection this Lord’s Day, praise God that your faith and hope are not in vain—because He is risen!
The Resurrection is that central miracle around which the Christian faith is gathered.
