[edit]Core concepts
[edit]In the New Testament, the three common usages for this term pertain to (1) the Christ, rising from the dead; (2) the rising from the dead, all men, at the end of this present age and (3) the resurrection of certain ones in history, who were restored to life.[1][2]
By Christ
[edit]According to Hodge's Outlines of Theology:
- Christ secures a resurrection for his people (Romans 10:5-10), by the following means:
- Christ's own resurrection that seals and consummates his redemptive power; the redemption of persons also involves the redemption of their bodies (Rom. 8:23).
- Being in union with Christ (1 Cor. 15:21, 22; 1 Thess. 4:14). The union of the Christian with Christ, causes the resurrection of the believer to be similar to, as well as consequent upon that of Christ (1 Cor. 15:49; Phil. 3:21; 1 John 3:2).
- The Spirit of Christ that dwells in his congregation, making their bodies his members (1 Cor. 6:15; Rom. 8:11).
- The New Covenant, established by Christ who is Lord of both the living and the dead (Rom. 14:9).
Christ's ministry shed light upon everlasting life and incorruption by way of the Gospels (2 Tim. 1:10). Jesus is quoted saying: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (Joh. 14:6). Christ on earth performed resurrections (Lu 7:11-15; 8:49-56; Joh 11:38-44). Only through Christ can resurrection, with everlasting life thereafter, be possible (Joh. 5:26). Paul the Apostle affirmed the resurrection hope in his Pauline epistles (1 Cor. 15:12-21).[3]
