Golders Text.
I am the resurrection and the life:
he that believeth in Me, though he
were dead, yet shall live. (John 11:25)
Let us never fall into the coronion
mistake of saying that we cannot
know whether there is ally life on the
other side of the grave because no one
has ever come back to tell us. That
does not happen to be true. Jesus
died—His death was as real and liter-
ai a death as has ever occurred since
the world began, And Hi eante back
from the grave after He had died. He
had much to say to His disciples after
He had come back. Furthermore, by
the sirnple laws of historical evidence,.
the resurrection of Christ has been
called the best attested fact in all his-
tory.
Seven passages from seven books
of the New Testament give us our
Easter lesson on the future life, with
many different facts about the life af-
ter death.
Jesus Christ is n<:,t only Saviour,
but also Lard and Ding, and I -Ie is

rightful Xing, When He coanes again

erlasting fire, prepared for the devil
and his angels."

part of the Gospel. Paul is very ex-
