Can anything last forever?

Conventional wisdom is that you should always hedge your bets. Never go “all-in” on anything. Jesus did just the opposite. He made everything about his work as our Savior hinge on one thing: him rising from the dead. When he did, every bold claim he made about himself and difficult thing he taught us was vindicated. He was in fact who he said he was. His payment for sin on Good Friday was in fact sufficient. His promises of life and salvation in his name will in fact be kept. His enemies can say about him whatever they want. Because of his resurrection from the dead, Jesus gets the last word.
