How Does Christ’s Resurrection Benefit Us?
The Heidelberg Catechism, Question 45:
Question: How does Christ’s resurrection benefit us?
Answer: First, by his resurrection he has overcome death, so that he might make us share in the righteousness he won for us by his death. Second, by his power we too are already now resurrected to a new life. Third, Christ’s resurrection is a guarantee of our glorious resurrection.
Kevin DeYoung expounds on each of these three benefits.
