Resurrection Matters Today

The resurrection of Christ, and therefore the physical resurrection of believers is critical to living the Christian life. Is is because of this that Paul can command Christians to stand immovably strong in Christ; completely committed to Gospel work. Let's face it, starting well is not a problem. Continuing well is a huge problem. It is when you believe you have reasons to give up that this command matters most. Doing right doesn't always turn out right for you now. But ultimately your hard work in the Lord is always profitable. How do I know whether my labour will be profitable? Did you do what Jesus wanted you to do? Did you do it in faith trusting he is for you? You will stand in front of Christ on the day of rewards and he will lavish rewards on you for every single act and motive from your whole life. Everything is worth it because there will be a resurrection. You, Christian, have no reason to give up. Quite the contrary!
