“If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all that he said; if he didn't rise from the dead, then why worry about any of what he said? The issue on which everything hangs is not whether or not you like his teaching but whether or not he rose from the dead.”
― Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism
Scripture
Jesus provided far more God-revealing signs than are written down in this book. These are written down so you will believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and in the act of believing, have real and eternal life in the way he personally revealed it. John 20:30,31 Message

The head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now
The Savior knelt to wash our feet
Now at his feet we bow
The one who wore our sin and shame
Now robed in majesty
The radiance of perfect love
Now shines for all to see
Your name
Your name
Is victory
All praise
Will rise
To Christ our king
[x2]
The fear that held us now gives way
To him who is our peace
His final breath upon the cross
Is now alive in me
Your name
Your name
Is victory
All praise
Will rise
To Christ our king
[x2]
By Your spirit I will rise
From the ashes of defeat
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
In Your name I come alive
To declare your victory
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
[x3]
The tomb where soldiers watched in vain
Was borrowed for three days
His body there would not remain
Our God has robbed the grave
Our God has robbed the grave
Your name
Your name
Is victory
All praise
Will rise
To Christ our king
[x2]
By Your spirit I will rise
From the ashes of defeat
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
In your name I come alive
To declare Your victory
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
Sentence Prayer
May the celebration of resurrected life bring
new hope to your being.
May the victory over earthly death turn
your eyes to the promises of heaven.
May the empty tomb help you to leave your
sorrows at the foot of the cross.
So that God's hope, promises and forgiveness
reign in your life forever.
Amen.
