“The power of His resurrection.” — Philippians 3:10
The doctrine of a risen Saviour is exceedingly precious. The resurrection is the corner-stone of the entire building of Christianity. It is the key-stone of the arch of our salvation. It would take a volume to set forth all the streams of living water which flow from this one sacred source, the resurrection of our dear Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; but to know that He has risen, and to have fellowship with Him as such — communing with the risen Saviour by possessing a risen life — seeing Him leave the tomb by leaving the tomb of worldliness ourselves, this is even still more precious. The doctrine is the basis of the experience, but as the flower is more lovely than the root, so is the experience of fellowship with the risen Saviour more lovely than the doctrine itself. I would have you believe that…
Christ rose from the dead so as to sing of it, and derive all the consolation
which it is possible for you to extract from this well-ascertained and
well-witnessed fact; but I beseech you, rest not contented even there.
Though you cannot, like the disciples, see Him visibly, yet I bid you
aspire to see Christ Jesus by the eye of faith; and though, like Mary
Magdalene, you may not “touch” Him, yet may you be privileged to
converse with Him, and to know that He is risen, you yourselves being
risen in Him to newness of life. To know a crucified Saviour as having
crucified all my sins, is a high degree of knowledge; but to know a risen
Saviour as having justified me, and to realize that He has bestowed upon
me new life, having given me to be a new creature through His own
newness of life, this is a noble style of experience: short of it, none ought
to rest satisfied. May you both “know Him, and the power of His
resurrection.” Why should souls who are quickened with Jesus, wear the
grave-clothes of worldliness and unbelief? Rise, for the Lord is risen.
