“You don’t have to wait for the End. I am, right now, Resurrection and Life. The one who believes in me, even though he or she dies, will live. And everyone who lives believing in me does not ultimately die at all. Do you believe this?”
John 11:25-26 MSG – A verse of the day from the Bible presented in Eugene Peterson’s contemporary version called The Message. Accompanied by a personal reflection below.
Do you believe this? Jesus is asking you and me: do you believe what I’m saying, viz., that I am the Resurrection and Life. Ponder on this question, won’t you? Because if you do, you are a believer, my friend, and your faith will hold you in good stead through this lifetime and into the next. On this Easter Sunday, I hope and trust you will give thought to the meaning of Christ’s love, life, death, resurrection, and promise to you.
