Palm Sunday.

As if that was talking about physical resurrection.

Jesus' resurrection life is already operating us because we're united to him.

You believe it? Jesus already overcame death in his own body.

And because we're united to him, we're called to overcome the dominion of sin in our mortal body.

So we're not debtors to the flesh.

Through that spirit, we mortify the deeds of the body.

This provides a powerful, right now, current application of Jesus' resurrection.

Romans 8 and 11 also talks about a future hope.

Today we'll be concluding the Sorrowful Mysteries and then we'll pray the first Glorious Mystery.

So we'll pray the third, the fourth, and the fifth.

The Sorrowful Mystery is the crowning with thorns, the carrying of the cross and the crucifixion.

And then the first Glorious Mystery, the resurrection.

Let's begin in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Save us from the fires of hell.

UNTO DEATH.

AND THEN HE COMES BACK, PERHAPS IT WILL BE SATAN'S IMITATION OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST.

PERHAPS THAT WILL BE THE MASTER STROKE.

THE DEVIL WILL BRING THE WORLD TO THE FEET OF THIS FALSE MESSIAH.

For since by men came death, by men also came the resurrection of the dead.

So right now in Christ Jesus, we're dead in Christ, right? We were baptized.

We resurrected spiritually.

Christ was not a sinner.

And now we come into this chapter that talks about sin, how sin must be dead.

And when I read that, I was kind of touched by the Lord because the great triumph that Paul declares here is the resurrection forever and that the reign, the reign of death.

Over the body of Christ.

He came as a man.
