I <strong>AM</strong> : M. M. Ninan<br />
Jerusalem 2000 years ago. It is this resurrection power that Jesus<br />
offers to every believer. A believer is not resurrected immediately.<br />
But the force of decay is abated. But for the realization of this into<br />
reality - we have to wait for it. Resurrection is not an accomplished<br />
fact for man yet. It is an offer. It starts the minute one puts his faith<br />
in Jesus Christ.<br />
1 Cor 15:22 For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.<br />
The same choice that Adam had is still with man. Will you choose<br />
life?<br />
John 11:25-26 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He<br />
who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and<br />
believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"<br />
4. REALIZATION OF RESURRECTION.<br />
We are still awaiting this realization, even though we have the<br />
Holy Spirit within us.<br />
Don’t be led astray by those who profess that the resurrection has<br />
taken place. Paul has clearly warned us against such false teachers.<br />
2 Tim 2:15-18 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a<br />
workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the<br />
word of truth.<br />
Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more<br />
and more ungodly. Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among them<br />
are Hymenaeus and Philetus, who have wandered away from the truth.<br />
They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy<br />
the faith of some.<br />
