The Purpose Of The Resurrection

The Purpose Of The Resurrection

 

Purpose = A stable, generalized intention to accomplish something that is both personally meaningful and leads to productive engagement with the world beyond the self. To have a purpose given by God is to be deeply connected to what a person values and finds important in their lives, it involves a desire to make a difference or to connect with something bigger than ourself. This would definitely describe what Jesus did for mankind on the cross, leading to His resurrection which would change the world and give us access to eternal life! This life starts the moment we get saved. We get adopted into the family of God, therefore whatever belongs to Jesus belongs to us, but we as christians live far short of what is ours. There are many people who will pretend to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus today but don't even truly know the purpose or benefits that He died for us to freely receive because this only comes through a personal relationship with the risen Savior. Jesus rose again so that we also could rise with Him in newness of life! Happy Resurrection Day!
