Resurrection Comeback | The Empty Tomb | Alive!
Resurrection is making a comeback.
We talk all the time about things or people making a come back
such and such style of clothing is coming back into fashion
such and such person is on their come back tour
To speak of resurrection making a come back
is a play on words for resurrection means to come back to life,
or more accurately to be raised back to life from the dead.
In this sense resurrection has never gone away,
but perhaps the word and what it signifies has dropped out of common understanding
but at the heart of the easter story is resurrection,
specifically the resurrection of the otherwise dead Jesus.
Jesus comes back,
overcoming death,
and this is the hope that lies at the heart of the Christian faith:
that just as Jesus was resurrected, so one day will we with him,
that death will not be the last word on our lives.
