Description

The Resurrection predicted

Old Testament Prophecy

Job 19:23-27

“Oh that my words were written!     Oh that they were inscribed in a book! Oh that with an iron pen and lead     they were engraved in the rock forever! For I know that my Redeemer lives,     and at the last he will stand upon the earth. And after my skin has been thus destroyed,     yet in[b] my flesh I shall see God, whom I shall see for myself,     and my eyes shall behold, and not another.     My heart faints within me!

New Testament Fullfillment

John 5:24-29

Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. “Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself. And he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man. Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.
