Luke 24:1-8

“Why do you look for the living among the dead?”
Delivered to the Enemies: The appearance of helpless and Loss of Control.

Crucified: Suffering at the hand of your enemies.
Raised the 3rd day: Ultimately God will vindicate and restore us to victory.

Are you suffering with circumstance that are not actually kingdom reality?

If so, you should also remember what Jesus said.
No matter how it appears or how much suffering there is God will vindicate us and we will be victorious in the end.

Ephesians 2:1-5
We are not dead but alive in Christ

Romans 5:17
Adam delivered all of us into sin and death but anyone who believes in Jesus is born again into new life.

We were spiritually dead but are now made spiritually alive in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:13
So why are we playing dead?

If you believe he is living why do you behave so often like he’s dead?

Based on your actions, would the world think Jesus is dead or alive?

Romans 6 (Msg) 1-3

How Could You Make A Better Commitment To Christ And The Mission Of The Gospel?

Romans 6:12-14 (MSG)
So what do we do? Keep on sinning so God can keep on forgiving? I should hope not! If we’ve left the country where sin is sovereign, how can we still live in our old house there? That means you must not give sin a vote in the way you conduct your lives. Don’t give it the time of day. Don’t even run little errands that are connected with that old way of life. Throw yourselves wholeheartedly and full-time—remember, you’ve been raised from the dead!—into God’s way of doing things. Sin can’t tell you how to live. After all, you’re not living under that old tyranny any longer.You’re living in the freedom of God.
