The Final Great Moment of Victory
The sting of death is sin – but Christ has taken its sting for us
The strength of sin is the Law – but Christ has fulfilled the law for us
Christ has taken the punishment demanded by the law for us.
Christ has risen from dead! We are raised up with new bodies DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP IN VICTORY!
