What will happen on the last day?

Welcome to Midway Church of Christ

What’s Your Question? for March 30, 2011

Jesus said He came that those who follow Him may be raised on the last day and given everlasting life (Jn. 6:39,40). He also said those who are drawn to Him will be raised at the last day (Jn. 6:44,54). When Lazarus died, and Jesus arrived at the home, He said “your brother will rise again.” Martha said “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.” Jesus assured her that death does not end life (Jn. 11:21-25). Furthermore, He said “the hour is coming” when the righteous and the wicked will be raised (Jn. 5:28,29), and those who reject Him will be judged on the last day (Jn. 12:48). When Jesus comes again, it will be the last day because He must reign till the last enemy, death, is destroyed (1 Cor. 15:25,26).
