The Resurrection of Jesus is a Believer's Greatest Hope

Death eventually strips away every earthly source of security. Paul argues that if Jesus remained dead, faith would be useless and sin would still condemn; but Jesus truly rose, proving His people are forgiven. As the first fruits of a coming harvest, His new life guarantees that the Holy Spirit is already loosening sin’s grip. Those who belong to Christ will rise in indestructible bodies when He destroys death, completes His work in them, and delivers the kingdom to God the Father.
