Jesus Christ is Alive
All Christian, let’s be careful before liking,
and doing comment on the post. It is a kind of fashion, that to do like, to
comment and to share the posts on different social networking sites. But before
reacting, it is best to read carefully and understand the meaning. Sometimes,
it so happened that intentionally or unintentionally, we might be wrong against our faith on Jesus.
Here, I am
sharing one example that was mistaken by many Christians.
Today,
many social networking sites are available.
And many Christian becomes members and do comments and do like for the Christian
post. I saw one post from one Christian. I was so sad reading that post. There was
written, “Jesus is dead for you, type Amen”. And thousands of members like that
post and I click on the comment and saw hundreds of members had typed Amen. Obviously,
they all were Christians. I think, the one who post this might be mistaken
while typing “dead” but those who read they must seem to read properly. I am
not blaming anyone but giving advice only. I don’t know why they were typing
amen and liked that post but they are wrong and mistaken about Jesus because
for me Jesus is alive. Before liking and typing “amen” we need to read it and
understand it. It is really very important to understanding it. The meaning of
dead, Definition of dead in
English:
Dead
ADJECTIVE
·
1 No longer alive.
‘a dead body’
as complement ‘he was shot dead by a sniper’
‘there was no time to bury the dead with
decency’
deceased,

And for
every Christian, “Jesus is alive.” Yes, once He died for us and He is risen. He
is still alive, and those who are spiritually strong can feel Him. In this life
also we can feel is presence and we can talk with Him and after we die we will
resurrected and will get rewards according to the things done in the body.
In the book
of John 11: 25, 26→Jesus said to her, “I am the
resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall
live.
“And whoever
lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
Jesus proclaims
that, “He is the resurrection and the life”. And He proved it when He rises
from dead.
We can found
about His resurrection in following bible verses where He was raised and
appears to His disciples and to believers.
The book of
Matthew, chapter 28; the book of Mark, chapter 16; the book of Luke, chapter
24; the book of John chapter 20.
Those who believe
Jesus will also have eternal life.
John 5:21,
“For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the son
gives life to whom He will”.
Verse 22-23,
“For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son, that
all should honor the son just as they honor the Father, he who does not honor
the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him”.
Jesus gives
us eternal life. It begins when human trust Him and is for eternal. Jesus gives
life to those whom He wants. We can’t forcefully get that life but only by grace.
And in verse 25, we know that even dead can hear voice.
Conclusions:
Jesus is not
dead for us; He is risen from the dead. He is still alive and who believes Him
and accept Him. He will give us His spirit to dwell among us.
In verse 47,
Jesus said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has
everlasting life.”
And verse
54, Jesus said, “Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life,
and I will raise him up at the last day.”
Acts
20:7-12, everyone was comforted when they found a dead Eutychus alive. Then how
much we are comforted that the Jesus who died for us is alive today for us.
