Today is Thursday, January 6th, 2011; Karen's Korner #1984

At the beginning of the new year with new beginnings, I decided that I might begin reading not only Genesis but also Matthew:  grabbing a chapter out of each, daily.
 
Looking yesterday at Matthew, my Life Application Bible introduces the Bible book telling about five 'megathemes', recounting Jesus' life (Jesus Christ; the King; The Messiah; Kingdom of God; Teachings; Resurrection).
 
Several sentences describing the explanation and importance of Jesus' Resurrection:
 
"When Jesus rose from the dead,
He rose in power as The True King.
In His victory over death,
He established His credentials
as King
and His power and authority over evil.
 
"The resurrection shows Jesus' all powerful life for us --
not even death could stop His plan of offering eternal life.
Those who believe in Jesus can hope for a
resurrection like His.
Our role is to tell His story
to all the earth
so that everyone may share in His Victory."
