Jesus s Death, Burial And Resurrection - 1977 Words

This paper will show the facts in regards to Jesus’s death, burial and resurrection, as the bible states. This paper will also show how reading these passages have impacted my life and how I grasp and understand the scriptures. Being a college student at a Baptist school, many people believe that I should know what the scriptures say, because I am at a baptist school. Though I am not fluent in the scriptures, reading the passages from the views of different disciples helped me get an understanding about the Word that I didn’t know before. Hampton 2 One of the life lessons that I learned when reading this scripture is that I will always find amazing in about the death, burial and resurrection of Christ and how God allowed Jesus to endure it. God has a love for us, who are flawed, so much that he gave his only son to die a very excruciating death on our behalf. While reading these verses it made me think about all the times when I have not lived my life 100 percent for Christ. While reading these verses it seems almost like an insult to God and his son, for not taking the gift that he has given us and using it for his glory. Another life lesson that I learned is how little faith I have had in God.

The fact that Jesus was crucified, buried and rose again on the third day is a cornerstone of the Christian faith. However, it is also a source of great debate. Many scholars believe that there is an abundance of evidence supporting an actual, physical resurrection. Still others believe evidence is found that refutes the idea of a bodily resurrection. For those, evidence of a more metaphorical or spiritual resurrection is present.

They claimed that Jesus had the right to forgive sins—something only God can do—as it is God who is offended by sin (Acts 5:31; Colossians 3:13; Psalm 130:4; Jeremiah 31:34). In close connection with this last claim, Jesus is also said to be the one who will â€Å"judge the living and the dead† (2 Timothy 4:1).

For this reason, Mormon funeral ceremonies can be upbeat events.
