The resurrection of Jesus says our promised future is already here. He is the “first fruits” of those risen from the dead. We have already begun to live our future. This is why holy living is so necessary. We must not live like the fallen world. We are to live out the purity of the inner kingdom that draws from Christ’s new creation. It has begun, it is here and it will come. We are to live “thy will be done on earth as in heaven”.
