Reflecting on the Resurrection

God works in a man a change so great that no reformation can even so much as thoroughly imitate it. It is an entire change – a change of the will, of being, of the desires, of the hates, of the dislikings, and of the likings. In every respect the man becomes new when divine grace enters into his heart.

- Charles Spurgeon

Perhaps this point was driven home by every pastor worldwide yesterday, but let it be said again: The resurrection of Christ is to be celebrated daily and in absolute astonishment, not exclusively on Easter Sunday. Jesus Christ went through the agony of the cross and victory of the defeating death in order to make you a new person – every single day and in every single way. The apostles were emboldened by seeing the resurrected Christ with their own eyes; may we live as though we were standing right next to them.
