Lord’s Day 17

The Resurrection of Christ

Divine Deliverance

Question 45

What does the “resurrection” of Christ profit us?

Answer

First, by his resurrection he has overcome death, that he might make us partakers of that righteousness which he had purchased for us by his death; ¹ secondly, we are also by his power raised up to a new life; ² and lastly, the resurrection of Christ is a sure pledge of our blessed resurrection. ³

1 Corinthians 15:16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

Romans 4:25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

Colossians 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Colossians 3:3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

Ephesians 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

Ephesians 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:↩︎
1 Corinthians 15:12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

1 Corinthians 15:20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

1 Corinthians 15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
