DIARY: Ruminations, Occasional thoughts & happenings - as they arise Happy Easter 2006 or, as Paul of Tarsus said: " .... Christ died for our sins ... he was buried ... he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures ... he appeared to Kephas, then to the Twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. After that he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. ... since death came through a human being, the resurrection of the dead came also through a human being . .... For just as in Adam all die, so too in Christ shall all be brought to life, but each one in proper order: Christ the firstfruits; then, at his coming, those who belong to Christ; then comes the end, when he hands over the kingdom to his God and Father ... ..... The last enemy
to be destroyed is death." Extract from 1 Corinthians Chapter 15
