|And, behold, I am alive for ever more.| |Jesus has conquered death and all its powers.| Never more will it sit on a transient throne. Its power is broken, its |sting| has lost its poison, there isn't a boast left in its apparently omnivorous mouth! |Where's thy victory, O grave?| And here is the gospel for me -- |Because I live ye shall live also.|
