Day 40: resurrection

"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" John 11:25-26

Today is Resurrection Day, the day celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day after He had been crucified. 

Scripture says that Jesus Christ was raised up from the dead for the justification of those who believe in Him (Romans 4:24-25). Justification is the act of legally declaring one innocent.

Thus, Christ's resurrection declares those who believe in him to be innocent in the sight of God.

Today I'm thankful for this celebration, and for the resurrection we celebrate.


What are you thankful for today?
