Thesis: The Resurrection of Jesus triggered God’s Eschatological Plan
I – THE RESURRECTION FACT
1. The Resurrection was the activity of the Trinity - The Father raised Jesus Acts 2:24, 32, 3:10, Ro 10:9, - Jesus raised Himself John 10:17-18 - The Spirit raised Jesus Rom 1:4 & 8:11
2. The Resurrection of Jesus already took place in the past, but its
effects remain forever
II – The Resurrection points to “Federal Theology”
> Mankind is represented by two men: Adam and Jesus
> The first Adam failed Romans 5:12
> God sent a second representative: His own Son
> I Corinthians 15 and Romans 5:12-21 are the best
theological treatises on Federal Theology.
> Jesus kept every jot and tittle of the Law that we could not.
> Jesus suffered the penalty and curse of the Law for sin. Galatians
3:13
> Now represented in Christ (Federal Theology), we are justified
III – The Eschatological Order Triggered by Christ’s Resurrection vs. 23-28 > Christ’s resurrection: -last time -of those who are Christ’s -the consummation
> What happens at the end?
> The Son hands in the Kingdom
> The Son is the representative of a new mankind
> Jesus came to bind the strong man
> verse 25 For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet. Â
>verse 26 The last enemy that will be abolished is death.
CONCLUSION
The Resurrection of Christ connects the dots of this otherwise purposeless and meaningless existence cf. 15:18
