DR . W IL L IAM CULBERTSON Presiden t, Moody Bible institute speaks on the fundamentals of the faith . Christ’s Resurrection “ Our Lord’s bodily resurrection is essen tial to Christianity. The apostles witnessed to His resurrection (Acts 4:33). The Book of God sets forth His resurrection as a his torical fact. The apostle Paul by the Spirit asserts that without the resurrection, we are yet in our sins and we are without hope. “ This importance of the Christian doc trine of the resurrection of Christ was early recognized by the enemies of the cross, and they hare done their best to discredit it. But the truth of it stands. History, the presence of the risen Christ in His true Church, the power of the gospel—all are ringing affirmations of its truth. The tragic consequences which must follow if our Lord did not rise are potent reminders of its necessity to salvation, and to the conception of God’s concern for and God’s rule over the world. “ No one can explain away the clear statements of the Word of God as though it were only the spirit that survived. ‘Flesh and bones’ were characteristics of that resurrected body (Luke 24:39). Denials of the resurrection and ‘explanations’ of it are both to be rejected. Be sure of it, without the resurrection there is no more to our Lard’s death than the death of any man. But with the resurrection, His deity is attested, His sacrifice is vindicated, His power is established, His judgeship is settled. 'If thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved: for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation’ (Romans 10:9, 10).” Every Christian should have a copy of Dr. Culbertson’s book God’s Provision for H oly Living, a happy blending of Bible study and practical exhortation. 112 pages, paper bound.
