The idea of resurrection is fantastical. A concept of myth and legends. Resurrection stands in contrast to that which we commonly and naturally experience and see. Death governs our life. It produces fear, marks decisions, and encourages us to lay hold on this life – this life before death. Yet, resurrection although may be legend and false to some, yea most, for us resurrection is rooted in true history and undeniable and infallible proof. Jesus Christ is the resurrection and the life. He is the way, the truth, and the life. In Christ, all things have become new, and His resurrection makes this so. Resurrection assumes death and it's there where we begin, although it isn't where God began! Bodily resurrection is a means to God’s eternal purpose in Christ. Christ would willingly give His life and take it up again so that the Father’s will would be done.

We, as Adam’s sons and daughters, inherit from our earthly father - death. Life unto death, thus death reigns in this family.
