Christ is Risen!
The Resurrection of Christ is the greatest event in human history. Resurrection – the triumph of the meaning and the foundation of our faith. “And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain” (1Corinthians 15:14), says the Apostle of Christ.
If there was no Resurrection, then not only would not be Christianity, but the faith in God, the power of goodness and justice would be undermined, would be lost and the meaning of life. If slain Christ has not risen, then not only would not have been anyone of salvation through Him, – for death and impotence who also can help? – But would not have been the worst in the history of triumph and more an evil mockery of evil over good and the devil over the whole world bright and perfect, as in the days of Calvary, and, generally, all the earthly life of Jesus Christ. And there would be stronger and more irresistible motive to hopeless despair, because if this righteous man was powerless, if this greatest personality disappeared into the abyss of nothingness, then we, then, to everyone what to expect, what to prepare?
Thus, the miracle of the resurrection really happened. And it remains to wish all who read these lines through the resurrection of Christ in their lives. After all he rose for our justification and redemption.
“And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power” (1Corinthians 6: 14).
Christ is truly risen!
