When love becomes what Christianity is all about, we can make no sense of Jesus's death and resurrection.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
At the heart of Christian faith is the story of Jesus' death and resurrection.
Suggesting a married Jesus is one thing, but questioning the Resurrection undermines the very heart of Christian belief.
Every spiritual tradition has this idea of death and resurrection. It's not unique to Christianity.
Love is the hardest lesson in Christianity; but, for that reason, it should be most our care to learn it.
The Resurrection is at the core of our beliefs as Christians. Without it, our faith is meaningless.
The idea is that Jesus overcame death through the Resurrection. What that does is fail to appreciate the fact that the resurrected Christ is the crucified Christ. It's not like, 'Oh, that was just a mistake, now it's over.' Jesus continues to suffer from our sins.
The best news of the Christian gospel is that the supremely glorious Creator of the universe has acted in Jesus Christ's death and resurrection to remove every obstacle between us and himself so that we may find everlasting joy in seeing and savoring his infinite beauty.
Christianity is not rationalism, but faith in God's revelation. A conspicuous, all-important item in that revelation is the resurrection of the body.
There is a direct relationship between how we feel about Jesus Christ and how we see ourselves. We cannot increase our devotion to the Savior without also obtaining a greater sense of purpose, identity, and conviction.
The whole point of the Resurrection stories - and the Resurrection itself - is that we don't recognize Jesus when he comes back to us.
