No one can over-estimate the importance of the truth of Christ’s resurrection. If this be overthrown, Christianity is a farce, Christ is a liar, the apostles were deluded, the martyrs were deceived, the believer is in the darkness of despair, God is unknown, and our loved ones are for ever lost. As Dr. Kennedy says:― “Blot the resurrection out of the story of Christ, and you may as well blot out Christ Himself. Blot out Christ, and you may as well blot out God. For all our true conceptions of Him, and all our true affections towards Him, grow out of the filial relation to Him, to which Christ lovingly restores us. And ’God added to, or deducted from the sum of existence,’ makes existence an altogether different thing from what it would otherwise be. Save us, by any means, from the conclusion of the sceptic, who could only see an ’empty heaven looking down upon a soul-less earth.’”
What light is to the earth, Christ’s resurrection is to the believer.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
