Spiritual Thoughts

  I f Christ is not risen, nothing else matters. And if Christ is risen, nothing else matters. ~ Jaroslav Pelikan BUT  now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep. For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam al die, so also in Christ all will be made alive. ~ 1 Corinthians 15:20-22

  I went to a psychologist friend and said if 500 people claimed to see Jesus after he died, it was just a hallucination. He said hallucinations are an individual event. If 500 people have the same hallucination at the same time, that is a bigger miracle than the resurrection. ~ Lee Strobel   F or I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that he was buried and that he was raised on the third day, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. After that he appeared to more than five hundred at one time . ~ 1 Corinthians 15:3-6

Do not mourn as those who have no hope . Christ died for our sins      in accordance with the Scriptures,           he was buried, he was raised on the third day       in accordance with the Scriptures. 1 Corinthians 15:3-4
