Aim: To proclaim Jesus' resurrection in our evangelism of others.
Doctrine: The resurrection of Jesus is at the heart of our evangelism. Everything we believe depends on the factualness of Christ being raised from the dead. Nothing we say about our faith has meaning aside from the historicity of Christ's resurrection.
Exegesis: The bold claims of our gospel message: Christ's resurrection is God's universal confirmation of His absolute truthfulness (vv. 29-31); Christ's resurrection sparks polar opposite reaction is all those who hear of it (vv. 32-33); Christ's resurrection miraculously empowers dead souls to come to life in Him (v. 34).
Further application: How we focus our evangelism on Christ's resurrection: by clearly stating that Jesus rose from the dead, and then leaving the results in the hands of our sovereign God.
Key verses: vv. 30b-31 ''But now [God] commands all people everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.''
