SERIES: THE MYSTERIES OF THE RESURRECTION

�� SCRIPTURE READING

“Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.” — Romans 4:25

“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” — Romans 5:1

��️ MEDITATION

The resurrection of Jesus is not only proof of His victory over death—it is also the confirmation of our justification before God.

Jesus died for our sins, but His resurrection declared that the payment for sin had been fully accepted.

When God raised Christ from the dead, it was a divine announcement that the debt of sin had been paid in full.

Justification means that God declares the believer righteous.

It is more than forgiveness; it is a new legal standing before God.

Through Christ, believers are no longer condemned but are accepted and restored.

The mystery of the resurrection is that through it, God proclaims that those who believe in Christ are justified and reconciled.

Because Jesus lives, believers can stand before God with confidence and peace.
