[3683.68 --> 3684.80] reorders all other
[3684.80 --> 3685.42] stories.
[3686.52 --> 3687.86] Turns out the cross and
[3687.86 --> 3688.68] the resurrection of
[3688.68 --> 3689.96] Jesus are not just
[3689.96 --> 3691.18] events within the
[3691.18 --> 3691.52] world.
[3691.80 --> 3692.58] The cross and the
[3692.58 --> 3693.48] resurrection of Jesus
[3693.48 --> 3695.30] are events upon which
[3695.30 --> 3697.74] the world hinges, on
[3697.74 --> 3698.76] which the world turns.
[3699.28 --> 3701.06] Everything changes with
[3701.06 --> 3701.86] the resurrection of
[3701.86 --> 3702.28] Jesus.
[3704.00 --> 3704.64] Because of the
[3704.64 --> 3705.76] resurrection, Jeremy
[3705.76 --> 3707.80] Treat says, because of
[3707.80 --> 3709.04] the resurrection, the
[3709.04 --> 3710.80] cross becomes not only the
[3710.80 --> 3711.86] center of redemptive
[3711.86 --> 3713.36] history, but also the
[3713.36 --> 3714.46] fulcrum upon which the
[3714.46 --> 3715.76] logic of the world is
[3715.76 --> 3716.98] turned upside down.
[3717.84 --> 3719.16] Shame is transformed into
[3719.16 --> 3720.86] glory, foolishness into
[3720.86 --> 3722.80] wisdom, humiliation into
[3722.80 --> 3723.70] exaltation.
[3725.06 --> 3727.38] In fact, it's only by the
[3727.38 --> 3728.54] resurrection and the
[3728.54 --> 3729.80] power of the resurrection
[3729.80 --> 3731.36] can some of the most
[3731.36 --> 3733.56] awful things begin to make
[3733.56 --> 3734.00] sense.
[3734.74 --> 3737.12] Now carefully, don't hear
[3737.12 --> 3737.84] what I'm not saying.
[3737.84 --> 3740.28] Okay, I'm not trying to
[3740.28 --> 3741.48] pretend that your trauma
[3741.48 --> 3742.70] is reasonable.
[3744.28 --> 3744.74] Right?
[3744.76 --> 3745.66] I'm not trying to say that
[3745.66 --> 3746.70] the death of your child
[3746.70 --> 3747.98] adds up to something
[3747.98 --> 3748.42] greater.
[3749.72 --> 3750.22] Right?
[3750.28 --> 3750.98] Don't hear that.
[3751.84 --> 3753.82] What I'm saying is that
[3753.82 --> 3755.62] only if the resurrection
[3755.62 --> 3757.52] is real can the most
[3757.52 --> 3759.16] awful parts of your life
[3759.16 --> 3760.12] be redeemed.
[3761.24 --> 3761.74] Right?
[3761.78 --> 3762.98] If the resurrection isn't
[3762.98 --> 3764.20] real, we are most of all
[3764.20 --> 3765.64] to be pitied because we are
[3765.64 --> 3766.82] stuck in this pointless
[3766.82 --> 3767.34] trauma.
[3767.54 --> 3768.96] We are stuck in pointless
[3768.96 --> 3770.12] trauma after pointless
[3770.12 --> 3770.54] trauma.
[3770.84 --> 3772.32] And that, that's what
[3772.32 --> 3773.22] doesn't make sense.
[3774.74 --> 3776.50] The resurrection is not
[3776.50 --> 3777.26] nonsense.
[3777.52 --> 3778.84] The resurrection is a new
[3778.84 --> 3779.54] sense.
[3779.66 --> 3781.74] It is a call to reorient our
[3781.74 --> 3783.38] entire interpretive framework
[3783.38 --> 3784.86] towards resurrection.
[3786.26 --> 3786.38] Right?
[3786.46 --> 3788.76] Life only makes sense in
[3788.76 --> 3789.96] light of the resurrection.
[3790.46 --> 3791.90] Without the resurrection,
[3792.28 --> 3793.90] death has the last word.
[3794.30 --> 3796.06] Death is the only thing in the
[3796.06 --> 3797.30] end that makes sense if the
[3797.30 --> 3798.44] resurrection is not real.
[3800.58 --> 3802.02] And can I be candid with you?
[3802.86 --> 3804.38] Because even if you're not
[3804.38 --> 3806.54] yet a Christian, notice my
[3806.54 --> 3807.04] language there.
[3807.80 --> 3809.12] Even if you're not yet a
[3809.12 --> 3811.20] Christian, you intuit this.
[3811.20 --> 3811.76] You know this.
[3812.44 --> 3814.54] You know this in your soul,
[3814.70 --> 3816.48] even if you can't make sense of
[3816.48 --> 3817.18] it in your brain.
[3817.98 --> 3818.14] Right?
[3818.24 --> 3819.48] Death isn't the end.
[3820.02 --> 3820.82] Death is defeated.
[3821.70 --> 3823.30] Resurrection redefines your
[3823.30 --> 3825.20] experience of death, and it
[3825.20 --> 3827.12] redefines your experience of life
[3827.12 --> 3827.88] now.
[3829.02 --> 3830.96] Jesus' resurrection means that by
[3830.96 --> 3833.64] his power, we too are raised to
[3833.64 --> 3835.04] a new life.
[3835.94 --> 3837.56] Jesus' resurrection means that in
[3837.56 --> 3840.40] this life, right now, we live
