Christ Arose – Hymn #265 Majesty Hymns

Low in the grave He lay, Jesus my Savior!

Waiting the coming day, Jesus my Lord!

Refrain:

Up from the grave He arose,

With a mighty triumph o'er his foes;

He arose a victor from the dark domain,

And He lives forever with His saints to reign.

He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!

Vainly they watch His bed, Jesus my Savior!

vainly they seal the dead, Jesus my Lord!

(Refrain)

Death cannot keep its prey, Jesus my Savior!

He tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord!

(Refrain)

Faith, Hope, Love #03

 I. The Resurrected Jesus Brings Hope

 II. The Resurrected Jesus Gives Hope

A. Living Hope

Wuest’s Word Studies - It is a lively hope, that is, not only living, but actively alive, an energizing principle of divine life in the believer, a Christian hopefulness and optimism produced in the believer yielded to the indwelling Holy Spirit. It is both an attitude of expectancy as the Christian looks forward to the inheritance awaiting him in heaven, and a hopefulness of present blessing from God in this life in view of the eternal blessedness of the believer in the next life. A child of God has no right to look on the dark side of things, and to look for the worst to happen to him. As the object of God’s care and love, he has the right to look for the best to come to him and to look on the bright side of things. (Wuest’s Word Studies from the Greek New Testament)

B. Blessed Hope  

C. Eternal Hope

Henry Morris, The Defender’s Study Bible – There is no true Christian faith without the resurrection, and thus no hope of forgiveness, or salvation, or eternal life. We are still lost in sins, and we shall never see our departed loved ones again. Having seen the hopelessness of this life, if that is all there is, more clearly than others, we are the "most miserable" of all men. But Christ has defeated death, our sins are forgiven, those asleep in Christ are awaiting us, and we also shall be resurrected to eternal life, so therefore, of all men, we are most blessed.
