The Resurrection and Easter

A TRUE conception of the death and resurrection of our blessed Lord would never for a moment permit us to connect it with the heathen name or nature-worship of Easter. Such a conception would forever settle the question of baptism, man’s nature and destiny, and many other questions. The resurrection is one of the notes, strains, or chords, in God’s great symphony of salvation. It perfectly blends with all the other strains in the great anthem. Like every other great truth, it contains within itself that which inseparably connects it with all other great truths. It is not a segment cut-off, it is a vital, essential part of the great whole.
