Good Words for Today: January 31

“Because I live, you also will live” (J0hn 14:19). The New Testament again and again connects our resurrection with his. Ours will happen in the future because his happened in the past. Sometimes when I stand by the grave of someone I know, I can almost hear a voice from beneath the ground saying, “I’m coming up.” To unbelievers that may sound like wishful thinking, but to me it’s solid biblical faith. In the words of the Apostles Creed, I believe in the resurrection of the body.
