Four Ways Christians Exercise Practical Denial of Christ's Resurrection

It is essential that Christians believe in many aspects of Jesus Christ; yet, one of the most fundamental is his resurrection. Christ’s resurrection from the dead is essential to not only salvation (Rom 10:9) but also to the way God’s people live their lives. Nevertheless, there are ways we often exercise practical denial of Jesus’ resurrection. By practical denial, I mean to imply not a literal belief that he is still dead but rather a seeming denial in the way we live our lives, i.e. our belief in Christ’s resurrection should surely impact our lives in the areas I will discuss. I will, therefore, offer four ways we deny the resurrection of Christ practically, a grave danger, for actions often speak to others louder than words.
