How does salvation relate to the resurrection?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation is intimately connected to the resurrection, as believers are promised eternal life through Christ's victory over death.

Salvation and resurrection are intrinsically linked since the resurrection of Christ is the cornerstone of our faith and hope. Romans 10:9 states, 'That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.' This shows that belief in the resurrection is necessary for salvation. Furthermore, the resurrection guarantees that those in Christ will also experience resurrection unto life, as emphasized in John 11:25-26, where Jesus articulates that belief in Him grants eternal life. Therefore, through Christ's resurrection, we receive assurance not only of being saved from sin but also of everlasting life in the presence of God.
