'Blessed be God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead', (Act 23vs6)
I personally believe the most important question that any man should ask is: 'Is Jesus Christ risen from the dead?'
Jesus Christ is the central figure of Christianity and is truly alive today, i can tell you that it is not a false hope that was created by some religious persons or a bid to manipulate people, this hope has been examined and spoken off throughout generations. the times we now live in has brought about religious manipulation of people's mind, we believers need to hold on to our faith amid this very difficult times.
Paul stated in 1 cor. 15: 13 down "But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen. And Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and our faith is empty......" BUT JESUS IS RISEN.
The Resurrection is what keeps a believer in the faith, for Christ is risen, there is now hope for the resurrection of the dead. We are born to live forever with Him through the Holy Spirit within us. Christ's resurrection brings the full and final redemption of all creation.
"I am the resurrection and life. He who believes in me, though he die, he shall live again"(John 11vs25). What oxygen is for the lungs, such is hope for the meaning of human life. There is hope that mistakes and sins can be forgiven. There is hope that we can have joy, peace, assurance, and security in the midst of the despair of this age.
Brace up yourself oh believer and key into the hope that is in Christ Jesus. Shalom
