Martha's Delusion

[High Premise]

The Resurrection is not Past, it's not Future, the Resurrection is NOW- and His Name is Jesus Christ.
Most all of the so-called church is like Martha, putting the Resurrection in the future.
Not sorry, Jesus IS THE RESURRECTION -

John 11 -

23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day. (Sounds like most Christians)

25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.
Believest thou this?

Here is where most all christians choke as Martha did. They reframe the question in their own mind, then answer the way that makes them feel comfortable.

27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.

That is not what Jesus asked Martha.

28 And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

So on top of dodging the question, Martha went her way, and lied to Mary that Jesus called for her.



So, are you "Putting on the Resurrection"???(Romans 13:14)

No Kidding.
And who is the Resurrection?

 

[B-A-C]

And who is the Resurrection?

Yes Jesus, but Jesus is a lot of things we are not. God for one thing, resurrected for another.
You can't context switch everything in the Bible.

Everything in the Bible?

See, you sound just like Martha. Trying to talk your way out of the RESURRECTION NOW.
Read all the OP again.

Nevertheless, ROMANS 13:14 states "PUT ON the Lord Jesus Christ"

You want some more?

Put on righteousness, and do justly, eh?

Put on righteousness, and do justly, eh?

So @twcstp111, how about that OP? you've been dancing around it. Tell me eh, what do you think of what Jesus asked Martha?

John 11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

I don't need to think anything of it.
