Those who belong to Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:23, But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ.
We don’t need much faith to believe in the certainty of death. By faith are we saved through grace, and that not of ourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works lest anyone should boast. By Adam’s legacy all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; by faith in Christ we are justified and made right. And we know that even though the body will die, we who belong to Him shall be raised from the dead just as He was raised!
Give us Your eternal perspective in all that we do and say and to remember His resurrection as our eternal hope!
