Death is Swallowed up in Victory!


For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: 

that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures,
that he was buried, 
that he was raised on the third day 
in accordance with the Scriptures

"Death is swallowed up in victory."

"O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?"

The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.    1 Corinthians 15:3-4, 54b-57

I have been crucified with Christ. 
It is no longer I who live, 
but Christ who lives in me. 
And the life I now live in the flesh 
I live by faith in the Son of God,
who loved me and gave Himself for me.      Galatians 2:20

Thank You Lord Jesus. Praise your Name, my Precious Saviour!
