by John Nordberg
John 3:16,17
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that
whoever believes
in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his
Son into the
world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Acts
2:22-24
Men of Israel, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by
God to you by
miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as
yourselves
know. This man was handed over to you by God's set purpose and
foreknowledge; and
you, with the help of wicked men, put him to death by nailing him to the
cross. But
God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because
it was
impossible for death to keep its hold on him. Romans
4:25
He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our
justification. 1
Corinthians 15:3-5
For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ
died for our
sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised
on the third day
according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to
the Twelve. 1
Corinthians 15:20-26
But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those
who have fallen
asleep. For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead
comes also
through a man. For in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.
But each in his
own turn: Christ, the firstfruits, then when he comes, those who belong to
him. Then
the end will come, when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father after
he has
destroyed all dominion, authority and power. For he must reign until he
has put all his
enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
