Regarding the Lord’s resurrection, there are two
Regarding the Lord's resurrection, there are two main aspects: the objective aspect and the sub jective aspect. In this booklet we shall cover the objective aspect of Christ's resurrection.
GOD'S VINDICATION
AND APPROVAL OF THE MAN-SAVIOR AND HIS ALL-INCLUSIVE
REDEMPTIVE WORK
The first point of the objective aspect of the Man-Savior's resurrection is that it was God's vindication and approval of the Man-Savior and His all-inclusive redemptive work. By resurrec tion God vindicated and approved the Man- Savior; God also vindicated and approved the Lord's redemptive work.
According to the four Gospels, there was much criticism, especially from the Jewish lead ers, of Christ's Person and deeds. Concerning His Person, some said that He was a Samaritan (John 8:48), that He was beside Himself, that is, mentally ill (Mark 3:21), and that He was demon possessed (John 8:49). Furthermore, His works were condemned by the Pharisees as a blas phemy to God. The religious leaders surely de nied, rejected, and condemned the Man-Savior.
