金句: 「基督若没有复活，你们的信便是徒然，你们仍在罪里。」（哥林多前书15章17节）

全年读经: 撒母耳记上4-7章  

耶稣基督的复活，是基督徒信心的房角石，没有它，今生或来生对我们都毫无意义。那就是为什么相信基督复活是那么的重要，它不是一种弥漫着宗教气氛的感觉或是捕风捉影的传闻，它的确发生，并有真凭实据的历史考证。
一个世纪以前，一群律师在英国会面，要讨论耶稣复活的圣经记录，他们想找到是否有足够的讯息，足以将它列入法院记录中；他们所得到结论是，基督的复活是历史上最完整的事实之一。

在哈地（G. B. Hardy）的「计时」一书中，他提供一些与复活有关、发人深省的问题：「有两个基本要件：（1）有没有人假死并且证明过它？（2）我是否也能如此？」哈地接着宣称：只有主耶稣的坟墓是空的，因为主耶稣胜过罪和死亡，因此我们这些信靠祂的人，将在祂的复活里有份。

使徒保罗在哥林多前书15章17节里写到：「基督若没有复活，你们的信便是徒然。」历史上的证据及数不清的生命转变，都见证主耶稣的复活是事实，你已将你的盼望放在复活的基督里吗？DCE


是的，主基督已复活，
祂已从坟墓出来；
祂为你打开死亡的锁链，
如今有大能拯救。Woodruff


基督的复活不仅是历史事件，也是我们得救的证明。

Fact, Not Fable



Read:1 Corinthians 15:1-19
If Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! —1 Corinthians 15:17


Bible In One Year: 1 Samuel 4-7

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. Without it we have no hope for this life nor the life to come. That's why it is important to recognize that our belief in Christ's resurrection is not based on a religious feeling or unfounded rumor, but on historical fact with solid evidence to support it.

A century ago, a group of lawyers met in England to discuss the biblical accounts of Jesus' resurrection. They wanted to see if enough information was available to make a case that would hold up in a court of law. They concluded that Christ's resurrection was one of the most well-established facts of history.

In his book Countdown, G. B. Hardy offers some thought-provoking questions about the resurrection: "There are but two essential requirements: (1) Has anyone cheated death and proved it? (2) Is it available to me?" Hardy goes on to declare that only the tomb of Jesus is empty. And because Jesus conquered sin and death, we who put our faith in Him will share in His resurrection.

"If Christ is not risen, your faith is futile," Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 15:17. Historical evidence and countless changed lives testify that the resurrection of Jesus is a fact. Have you put your hope in the risen Christ? —Dave Egner


Yes, Christ the Lord is risen,
Has come forth from the grave;
He breaks the chains of death for you
And now has power to save. —Woodruff

Christ's resurrection is more than a fact of history—it's the proof of our salvation.
