Romans 4:25
Romans 4:25
He was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
“He was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.” This verse emphasizes the connection between the death and resurrection of Jesus. His death on the cross paid the penalty for our sins, and His resurrection assures us that God accepted that sacrifice. Through His resurrection, Jesus justified us—declaring us righteous before God. The resurrection affirms that Jesus’ work on the cross was completed and accepted by the Father. Because He was raised, we too are justified. We are no longer condemned but are declared righteous because of what Christ has done. The resurrection is the vindication of Jesus’ work, and through His resurrection, we are brought into right relationship with God.
Philippians 3:10
That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death.
Acts 4:33
And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
Luke 24:5
And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
1 Corinthians 15:3
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures.
