Resurrection & Redemption

“In God’s mighty act of raising Jesus bodily from the grave we are right to glimpse the final chapter of the drama of redemption. Indeed, an understanding of redemption that fails to take its moorings from Christ’s victory over sin and death via bodily resurrection, and the promise of ultimate restoration of all things declared by the empty tomb, is not a biblical understanding of redemption at all.”

- Michael D. Williams, Far as the Curse is Found (Phillipsburg, NJ: P & R Publishing, 2005), 12.
