John 11:25
I am the resurrection, and the life. Christ makes the grand,
striking declaration that he is the RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE, words
that never could have fallen from the lips of a sane mortal. They mean
that he is the power which opens every grave, gives life to the
sleepers, and calls them forth to a new existence; that the life that
endows men with eternal being is in him and proceeds from him. In the
light of his own resurrection they mean that when he burst open the
tomb, he did it for humanity and in him humanity has won the victory
over death.
