Easter is coming soon, when we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus. What is the significance of Resurrection? Why is it central to our faith? Watchman Nee, one of my favorite source of theological reading, put it this way: imagine you were guilty of a crime and sentenced to prison. But a good friend of yours decides to take your place instead and goes to prison for you (this couldnt happen in real life, just an illustration)and you are a free man. Then one day, someone knocks on your door and its your friend! He tells you that he has been released now. Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the proof that your crime has been paid for. It is, if you like, a receipt showing that no more charge remains. The release of your good friend from prison is the proof positive that you are now innocent.
