Hallelujah! Christ is Risen.

"And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins." (1 Cor. 15:17)

Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death. And upon those in the tombs bestowing Life!

Jesus is risen from the dead as was foretold concerning the Righteous Ruler, the Messiah. He is risen! Hallelujah!

The New Testament speaks about Jesus as the ruler-priest. He is the firstborn from the grave and by his resurrection He delivers to the Father a "peculiar people." He leads us in the ascent to the Father where we receive heavenly recognition because we belong to Him.
