“I will never
think of a pearl in the same light again. I absolutely love the way you have
drawn a parallel between the pearl and the Church. This is inspired!” ~ Elizabeth
Hightower, Women's Ministry Leader, Laurelwood Baptist Church

you enjoy it, an online review would be appreciated.)

Passage ~ “Inasmuch
then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise
shared in the same, that through death He
might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and
release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
For indeed He does not give aid to
angels, but He does give aid to the seed of Abraham. Therefore, in all things He had to be made
like His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in
things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. For in that He Himself has suffered, being
tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted” (Hebrews 2:14-18).
Significance ~ The
resurrection proved beyond any doubt that Christ has power over death. The resurrection is a key difference between
Christianity and all religions—we serve a living
Savior. Fortunately, there is a vast amount
of data confirming the reality of the resurrection—not the least of it being the
risen Christ was seen by over 500 individuals at one time.
‘But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead
dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your
mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you” (Romans 8:11). “Knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus
will also raise us up with Jesus, and will present us with you” (2 Corinthians
4:14-15).
the key question:
“Who do you say that I am?”
(Matthew 16:15). This is the most important
question you will ever answer. If you do
not answer it, or answer it incorrectly, you have made the biggest mistake
anyone can make!
Comment ~ The
unsuccessful attempt by Satan to tempt Christ to sin is another line of proof of
how Christ defeated Satan (see Matthew 4:1-11).
