He is not here; he has risen! Luke 24:6

Happy Resurrection Day! The resurrection of the Messiah is what separates our belief system from all others and it is the linchpin of our faith. Mohammad, Buddha, and all the others are still in the grave, but Christ is risen. He defeated hell and death so we can believe his promise to grant us eternal life. His ability to overcome death legitimizes all of his wild claims about being God. Without the resurrection, Jesus would  be just another false prophet. While we can’t travel back in time to verify the tomb was empty on the third day, we can look at the circumstantial evidence. All of Christ’s followers, the same ones who ran and hid in fear when he was arrested, eventually gave their lives because they would not recant their story about Jesus being the Messiah and him conquering the grave. There are a few men who might die for the truth, but how many would die, especially the horrific deaths the apostles died,  for a lie?

Come back every Sunday for a new Prepper Bible Study! The most important prep of all is knowing GOD. Jesus said “what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his own soul?” Prepper translation: “What good will it do you to survive the coming economic collapse, nuclear war or even a zombie apocalypse if you don’t know you will go to heaven when you die.” A recent study found that 10 out of 10 people die! On that day we will meet our Maker. It only makes sense to be prepared for that day. Click here to learn more about knowing GOD.

Have a blessed day and happy prepping!
