|
to the glory and the power of our loving God to take upon Himself
the sins of the elect ones, He Himself paying the penalty His Law
requires for those He chose in eternity past to be the objects of His
grace, uniting us together with Himself showing proof to the elect
ones by His Resurrection from the dead; praise everlasting to God in
Jesus Christ.
that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Eternal God the Son, should
do this great thing for sinners like us, rests in the love the Triune
God has for those whom He chooses will know Him in life eternal,
beginning at the moment of salvation as He raises dead human spirits
from the grave as He did raise Jesus Christ from the grave.
****************************************************************************
some wonderful facts about the Resurrection of Jesus Christ Eternal
God the Son...
God the Father raised Jesus from the dead. Ro. 6:4
God the Holy Spirit raised Jesus from the dead. Ro. 8:11
God the Son, Jesus Christ, raised Himself from the dead. Joh 2:19
*******************************
God the Father raises up the elect from among the dead. 1 Cor. 6:14
God the Holy Spirit raises up the elect from among the dead.
Ro. 8:11
God the Son raises up the elect from among the dead. Joh. 6:40
********************************
there is but one God who somehow subsists as Three Divine Persons;
namely, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. this is how God
( Elohiym, plural ) has revealed Himself in His Word, the Holy
Scripture, both in the Old ( Deut. 6:4 ) as well as the New
Testaments. ( Mt. 28:19; Acts 2:38;39 ) for example.
the elect of God worship on Sundays because Jesus Himself told His
disciples ( us, the elect ) that they'd be cast out of the synagogues
( Joh. 16:2 ) because of Him... the reason being that those who are
saved are given the Holy Spirit of God and are not under Law as those
who worship the Law and not God, on Saturdays.
this exposes Saturday worshipers as Christ haters since Saturday Law
worshiper's hate the elect. ( Lk. 21:17 )
**********************************
when God said " Let there be light " ( Gen 1:1 ) it was on a
Sunday... ( while the pagans calling themselves ' Christians '
vehemently object to elect Christians that we are nothing more than
sun worshipers in our worshipping on Sundays, these fail to see that
not only that Jesus was raised on Sunday, but that Sunday is the day
of New Beginning... a sinner saved by grace alone begins life as born
from above a new creation... just as in the day God said " Let there
be light. " )
the Lord Jesus was raised from the dead on Sunday... the most
important event in all of history. the eternal salvation of every one
who has been given the faith of Jesus is secure by this single event.
God could have ordained all of history to coincide the resurrection
of Jesus on some other day, but He didn't. He ordained Sunday, the
first day, as in Creation, as the day the Lord Jesus would be raised
from the dead.
Sunday was the day the Lord God chose for the following
special events besides the resurrection of Jesus Christ :
The Feast of Pentecost : Sunday
- Held fiftieth day after offering first sheaf of barley
harvest
Le 23:15,16; De 16:9
- CALLED THE :
Feast of harvest... Ex 23:16
Feast of weeks... Ex 34:22; De 16:10
Day of the first fruits... Nu 28:26
Day of Pentecost... Ac 2:1
- To be perpetually observed... Le 23:21
- All males to attend... Ex 23:16,17; De 16:16
- A holy convocation... Le 23:21; Nu 28:26
- A time of holy rejoicing... De 16:11,12
- The first fruits of bread presented at... Le 23:17; De 16:10
- Sacrifices at... Le 23:18,19; Nu 28:27-31
- The Law given from Mount Sinai upon... Ex 12:6,12; 19:1,11
- The Holy Spirit given to believers on... Ac 2:1-3
- Observed by the church ... Joh. 16:2; Ac 20:16; 1Co 16:8
the flood of Noah ended after the forty days, on a Sunday... the
tops of the mountains became dry he noticed on a Sunday... he sent out
the raven and the dove on a Sunday. New Beginning... as in the moment
God gives life to the dead spirit in the human heart He saves by
grace.
Jesus was likely born on a Sunday... on the first day of the Feast of
Tabernacles for " the Word became flesh, and ' Tabernacled ' among us
" Joh. 1:14... made His tent among our tents... the only date which
merges with the account of His birth in the Gospels and the feasts of
the Old Testament... the First Day, Sunday, which merges with " Let
there be Light " and the flood of Noah, and manna from heaven by
grace, and so on....
**********************************************
to the Lord God the elect give praise and glory to the God of our
salvation by raising Jesus Christ our Savior from the dead, securing
our salvation which He freely bestows by His love and grace towards
us. |
