4 days ago · Jesus was not overwhelmed by death. It did not overcome Him. He said, “No one takes [my life] from me… I have authority to lay it down and I have authority to take it up again” (John 10:18). The life of Jesus was not taken. It was given. He gave Himself into death: “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.”
Apr 11, 2022 · After Jesus said, “It is finished,” on the cross, “he bowed his head and gave up his spirit” (John 19:30). His dead body remained on the cross until it was taken down and placed in a nearby tomb (John 19:40–42). His spirit, however, was elsewhere. Three days later, His body and spirit were reunited, and He rose from the dead (John 20).
It was His body that died and not His spirit. The scripture reveals that we have a body and a spirit. Even though our body dies, our spirit remains alive (Matthew 25:46). In fact, our spirits are eternal. Therefore, when Jesus gave up His spirit on the cross, His body died, but not His spirit. It was still alive.
