An Extraordinary Resurrection #1 of 2
March 30, 2009
We all know the Olympic games began in ancient Greece. We know that they involved runners, and races. But how do we know that? We know because historical writings tell us so. The same is true of Jesus and His resurrection...there is massive evidence that says He rose from the dead. Though naysayers may come and go, Christ's resurrection is as certain as any event in history.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

If there's one thing ancient Rome was good at, it was executions. They had a perfect record: no one they killed ever lived again that is, until Jesus made the comeback of all time. When God raised Him from the dead, Christ was triumphant over death itself. And His resurrection guarantees that those who believe in him, though long dead, will one day rise as well.

When winning Olympians take home their gold medals, they don't hide them. They put them on display for their nations to see. The love of God was put on display when Jesus willingly went to the cross to die for our sins. His sacrifice was visible that day in Jerusalem, and, through the eye of faith, it's visible even now to those who trust Him for the salvation His death purchased.

For athletes, the greatest moments of life are defined by victories in the arena, at the playing field or on the racetrack. But Christ's defining moment was a cruel death on the cross. For those who believe, that death bought forgiveness of sins. And for that, we must be eternally grateful. Today: we'll begin to experience the horrific price paid for our salvation.

Some athletes loom larger than life. Their personas go beyond their sports prowess, and make them cultural icons. Genuine authority flows from within, no matter who you are. Jesus Christ had that kind of authority, an authority we feel even today, two thousand years down the road. How can He still command such devotion?

When you size up any group of people, it's easy to tell who's in charge. There's something intangible about real leaders. In all of history, no one has ever projected the authority that Jesus had. People were either drawn to Him, or, they wanted to kill Him. For anyone confronting the real Jesus, there was, and still is, no middle ground, and today we'll see why.

People once thought that running a four-minute mile would take a miracle. Well, one day, someone did it...it's no longer a miracle. Real miracles include raising the dead, and feeding the five thousand...the kind of miracles Jesus did to prove He came from God. Today: more about the amazing life of Christ, a man whose claims were validated by His miracles.

He never wrote a book, never owned a home. He never traveled extensively. Still today, He is the centerpiece of the human race. Jesus Christ lived a perfect life and died a perfect sacrifice. Not even His enemies could point to a single character flaw. He is worthy of our absolute obedience, since He is the only mediator between God and humanity.

There are many things that set Christ apart from all others who claim to point the way to God. His super natural birth, for one. Jesus was fully human, but had no human father. Born to a young Jewish maiden who had never known a man, His beginnings on earth were indeed extraordinary. So, how important is the virgin birth?

Everybody likes a story of rags-to-riches. But for Jesus, taking on human flesh means His story is riches to rags. The Son of God's arrival in Bethlehem fulfilled countless prophecies and drew the attention of legions of angels. There is a reason why our calendars pivot from BC to AD at the time of His birth.

You can't take home Olympic gold without conforming to the rules of the race. Only one route leads to the finish line. And you can't get to heaven by picking out your own religion as you might pick out a new coat. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father except through me." If this sounds intolerant to you, please stay with us.
