The Last Enemy Defeated
Description
The Creed declares that "on the third day he rose again from the dead." What does it mean that Jesus was raised up, after death, by God? In this program, Christian theologians examine the tenet of Christ's resurrection and what it means for human beings. Topics include the resurrection as victory over sin and death; the role of faith in accepting this belief; the implications of Christ's transformation from physical death to a new spiritual life, and of his ascension; the imagery of "sitting at God's right hand"; Jesus as mediator between God and man; the Second Coming; Jesus' reinterpretation of the hopes for a Jewish messiah; and different ways to understand what is meant by Judgment Day.
