Raised Forever
It wasn’t a club or a creed that emboldened the disciples following Jesus’ death; it was an event. What was that event and its effect? Read Acts 4:33 and 2 Peter 1:16.
Why might the resurrection be considered the single most important event in human history? How does Jesus’ resurrection relate to others? Read a few passages for reminders: 1 Corinthians 15:17, John 14:19, John 6:40.
Sometimes, thinking about the afterlife can seem uncomfortable. God tells us that we long to live forever (Ecclesiastes 3:11). What are your thoughts about being resurrected living forever in a perfect, pain-free existence?

Who is Jesus to you? How does the reality of His resurrection help you live and help prepare you for eternity? Have you believed in Him for the forgiveness of your sins and His offer of eternal life? (John 5:24)

The Simple Daily Things
