What does the Bible say about the resurrection of Jesus?

The Bible provides detailed accounts of Jesus’s resurrection, emphasizing its importance and authenticity. Several key passages highlight this event:

• Matthew 28:5-6: The angel tells the women at the tomb, "He is not here; he has risen, just as he said."

• Luke 24:6-7: Jesus’s resurrection is described as fulfillment of prophecy and proof of His divine nature.

• John 11:25: Jesus declares, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die."

  
  

These scriptures affirm that the resurrection is central to Christian belief. They also provide reassurance that Jesus’s promises are true and reliable.

To accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you can do this right now—simply and sincerely:

1. Believe that Jesus is God’s Son, that He died for your sins, and rose again.

2. Turn to Him (repent)—tell Him you want to leave sin behind and follow Him.

3. Receive Him—invite Jesus to lead your life as Lord.

4. Confess it—tell God and then tell someone you trust.

You can pray something like this (in your own words is fine):

“Jesus, I believe You are the Son of God. I believe You died for my sins and rose again. Please forgive me of my sins, come into my life, and be my Lord and Savior. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit and help me follow You. Amen.”

If you prayed and asked Jesus into your life you have made the most significant decision you will ever make.

I can say this confidently because God heard my prayer and Jesus saved my life. I would not be here today if it wasn't for Him. His unwavering love is real. Jesus hears and sees us and His Holy Spirit guides us. Our Heavenly Father is the creator of the universe and anything we ask will be received.

Welcome to the Kingdom.

Trusting God with all your heart:
