Here is an Easter Egg just for Easter - Who raised Jesus from the dead? God the Father raised Jesus from the dead: 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10 - for they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath. God the Spirit raised Jesus from the dead: Romans 8:11 - 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of[a] his Spirit who lives in you. God the Son raised Himself from the dead: John 2:19-21: Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” But the temple he had spoken of was his body. And lastly, God raised Jesus from the dead: Acts 17:30-31 In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.” The triune God who is Father, Son, and Spirit, raised Jesus from the dead these many years ago that His life might empower you today and for eternity. And Jesus says to us this: Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Happy Easter, beloved of God.
