“I am the Resurrection and the Life; he who believes in Me shall live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes in Me shall never die.” John 11:25-26
One of the more outrageous claims of Jesus was, “I am the Resurrection and the Life.”
He concluded this claim by asking the crowd, “Do you believe this?”
Imagine standing there that day. Jesus was not speaking in metaphor or poetry. He was claiming authority over death itself. He was saying eternal life is not found in a system, a philosophy, or good behavior — but in Him. Physical death would not be the end for those who trust Him. Spiritual death would be removed entirely.
How would you have responded?
Do you believe this?
How you answer Jesus’ question concerning His claims about Himself and power over death is the most important decision you’ll ever make. Let’s put it this way: everything hinges on whether His claim is true. If Jesus did not rise from the dead, then His words carry no authority and can be dismissed. But if He did rise, then His claim changes everything — your past, your present, and your eternity.
So the issue is not whether we admire Jesus, respect Him, or learn from Him. The issue is whether we believe Him.
I believe Him.
Do you?
