Georgetown last summer on his Marathon of Hope The banners that greeted the courageous runner claimed Cancer can be beaten That was a bold statement of defiance against the most feared disease In Canada today But the Bible Is even bolder for It defies death People hope that science will soon find a cure for cancer In all its many forms The nation was shocked when Terry Fox developed secondary cancer but some hope revived when he was given experimental drug Interferon People across Canada have prayed that brave young man life might be spared not only he is widely respected but also because it would be a symbolic defeat for cancer It would give hope to many It Is a fact of human existence that we must all die Defeating cancer does not mean defeating death Those who do not die of cancer will die of something else Human medicine may delay death It annot defeat death But the Bible soys that death can be beaten It says that because death has already been beaten by one man Jesus Christ who is true God and true man died on the cross bearing the guilt of the sins of the world But He did not stay dead He rose again from the dead He came back to life in His body and wilt never again die Jesus said about His life No man taketh it from Me Ihavepowcr to lay it down and I have power lo lake It again John 10 IB If anyone else said that it would be a silly boast But Jesus said He was going do it Then He did The fact that Jesus rose Is witnessed to throughout the New Testament One of the main jobs of the apostles was to testify to Jesus Resurrection Acts 1 One of them was the proverbial doubter Doubting Thomas Himself lo him and Thomas confessed My Lord and my John They all knew that Jesus was alive again In His flesh and blood body Luke 39 What does Jesus Resurrection mean It meins several tilings which we do not have space to explain In detail but only to list It means that God has accepted His sacrifice as sufficient for the Bins of the whole world It menus that Jesus Is who He claimed to be God the Son It means Jesus taught the truth and that He can deliver on His promises He will raise us from the dead On the Lost Day all the people that have ever lived will be raised from the dead The unbelievers will be raised but they will still be damned God chosen ones the believers will be raised in glory forever Death con be beaten because death has been beaten by Jesus
