Title: Resurrection Power


1
Resurrection Power
  • Ephesians 119b-22
  • The Purifying Significance of
  • Jesus Triumph Over Death

2
Resurrection Power for Believers
  • Ephesians 119-20
  • . . . and what is the surpassing greatness of His
    power toward us who believe. These are in
    accordance with the working of the strength of
    His might which He brought about in Christ, when
    He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His
    right hand in the heavenly places,

3
The Ascended Anointed One
  • PSA 1101-2 The Lord says to my Lord "Sit at My
    right hand Until I make Your enemies a footstool
    for Your feet. The Lord will stretch forth Your
    strong scepter from Zion, saying, "Rule in the
    midst of Your enemies."

4
Indestructible Life
  • Hebrews 715-16 And this is clearer still, if
    another priest arises according to the likeness
    of Melchizedek, who has become such not on the
    basis of a law of physical requirement, but
    according to the power of an indestructible life.
  • Hebrews 728 Therefore He is able also to save
    forever those who draw near to God through Him,
    since He always lives to make intercession for
    them.

5
A Soaring Kingship
  • EPH 121 far above all rule and authority and
    power and dominion, and every name that is named,
    not only in this age but also in the one to come.

6
The King of the Universe/The Head of the Church
  • Ephesians 122-23 And He put all things in
    subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head
    over all things to the church, which is His body,
    the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

7
The Pre-Eminent Prince of Peace
  • Colossians 117-18
  • He is before all things, and in Him all things
    hold together. He is also head of the body, the
    church and He is the beginning, the firstborn
    from the dead, so that He Himself will come to
    have first place in everything.

8
Why Resurrection Power is Intimately Personal
  • EPH 24-6 But God, being rich in mercy, because
    of His great love with which He loved us, even
    when we were dead in our transgressions, made us
    alive together with Christ (by grace you have
    been saved) and raised us up with Him, and seated
    us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ
    Jesus,

9
Defining and Discerning the Power of the
Resurrection
  • Is there Healing in the Atonement?
  • ISA 535 But He was pierced through for our
    transgressions, He was crushed for our
    iniquities The chastening for our well-being
    fell upon Him, And by His scourging we are
    healed.

10
New Testament Commentary on Isaiah 535
  • 1Peter 224 and He Himself bore our sins in His
    body on the cross, so that we might die to sin
    and live to righteousness for by His wounds you
    were healed.

11
Establishing a Biblical Worldview
  • 2 Corinthians 416 Therefore we do not lose
    heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet
    our inner man is being renewed day by day.

12
Avoiding an Overreaction
  • There is Most Definitely Healing in the
    Atonement The Effects of Being Free from Sin
  • Eternal Healing Spiritual and Physical at the
    Appointed Time
  • 2 Corinthians 54 For indeed while we are in this
    tent, we groan, being burdened, because we do not
    want to be unclothed but to be clothed, so that
    what is mortal will be swallowed up by life.

13
Defining the Power of the Resurrection Towards
the Believer
  • The believer in the Messiah receives
    justification,
  • sanctification, and
  • glorification
  • through the Power of the Death and Resurrection
    of Jesus Christ

14
1 Cling to the Doctrine of the Resurrection
  • 1 Corinthians 1512-15 Now if Christ is
    preached, that He has been raised from the dead,
    how do some among you say that there is no
    resurrection of the dead? But if there is no
    resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has
    been raised and if Christ has not been raised,
    then our preaching is vain, your faith also is
    vain.
  • Moreover we are even found to be false witnesses
    of God, because we testified against God that He
    raised Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact
    the dead are not raised.

15
1 Cling to the Doctrine of the Resurrection
  • 1Corinthians 1516-20 For if the dead are not
    raised, not even Christ has been raised and if
    Christ has not been raised, your faith is
    worthless you are still in your sins. Then those
    also who have fallen asleep in Christ have
    perished. If we have hoped in Christ in this life
    only, we are of all men most to be pitied.
  • But now Christ has been raised from the dead,
    the first fruits of those who are asleep.

16
2 Live as Those Alive from the Dead
  • Romans 611-13
  • Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin,
    but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do
    not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you
    obey its lusts, and do not go on presenting the
    members of your body to sin as instruments of
    unrighteousness but present yourselves to God as
    those alive from the dead, and your members as
    instruments of righteousness to God.

17
3 Set Your Sights on the Finish Line
  • Philippians 310-13 . . . that I may know Him and
    the power of His resurrection and the fellowship
    of His sufferings, being conformed to His death
    in order that I may attain to the resurrection
    from the dead. Not that I have already obtained
    it or have already become perfect, but I press on
    so that I may lay hold of that for which also I
    was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.

18
Conclusion Stirred to the Promise of Future
Glory
  • ROM 811
  • But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from
    the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ
    Jesus from the dead will also give life to your
    mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in
    you.
