4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5 he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will. —Ephesians 1:4-5

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. —Romans 8:35, 37-39

A. That I am not my own, but belong – body and soul, in life and in death – to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ.

Three Implications of the Resurrection
1. The reason we strive to do

is because of the of Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 15:1)
2. We have of our resurrection if we in him. (1 Corinthians 15:2)
3. (including conflict) pales in to the hope of the resurrection. (1 Corinthians 15:20)
