Main Entry: res·ur·rec·tion
Pronunciation: "re-z&-'rek-sh&n
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Late Latin resurrection-, resurrectio act of rising from the dead, from resurgere to rise from the dead, from Latin, to rise again, from re- + surgere to rise -- more at SURGE
1 a capitalized : the rising of Christ from the dead b often capitalized : the rising again to life of all the human dead before the final judgment c : the state of one risen from the dead
2 : RESURGENCE, REVIVAL3 Christian Science : a spiritualization of thought : material belief that yields to spiritual understanding
- res·ur·rec·tion·al /-shn&l, -sh&-n&l/ adjective
What does it mean to be raised from the dead??? What about those who were raised before Jesus? Having seen someone die, I am not certain it is something one would wish for.
the rising again to life
Theorectically, many people who have grieved endlessly have also experienced this rising again to life...in their mere resilentancy they prove that they can live again. But this is not what most of us have learned about this word. It refers to Him.
To the selflessness of a Savoir for the lost, so that none may perish. How then do we get so entrapped in bitterness? So self absorbed that we fail to recognize the true suffering of our fellow souls. Have you ever been in the same room with someone that you knew was slowly dying on the inside? Have you ever been that person?
Being bitter is like swallowing poision and expecting the other person to die....
And He is Risen.
For you.
For me.
For all.
