13. The Resurrection
A look at one of the key doctrines of the Christian Church--the resurrection of Christ from the dead as well as our own resurrections on Judgement Day. The Resurrection is so important to the Church that it is a high feast day, it was the primary celebration for early Christians, it was the day new converts were confirmed into the Church, and Sunday became the day of worship as a weekly celebration of resurrection (hence, the Sundays during Lent are called "Sundays IN Lent," not "Sundays OF Lent"). Finally, early Christians celebrated as feast days those days when a "saint" died--for this is considered the "birthday" into eternal life!

The Lutheran faith is a Christian faith and as such Lutherans build their hope on the Resurrection promise. I have related the passing of family members in the past. Since Lutherans and Lutheranism is not just those who lead and make headlines. This article reflects the life of an average Lutheran who lived his faith (sola fide) and died in the peace of forgiveness won by Christ on the cross (sola gratia).

An Heretical Easter Story - Did Jesus Really Die?
What if Jesus had never actually died on the cross, but was revived by dedicated followers? Impossible, you say? Not necessarily. The Scriptures themselves reveal all the clues, as you will see in this amazing story. It gives, in my view, an even better portrayal of the Resurrection, an event that, in light of this information, we can actually relate to!!!
