The Greek word "propitiation" used in John's letter refers to Jesus as the atonement for our sins, not as a means to appease an angry God. It's a demonstration of God's love, not a call for us to try to make up for our sins. It's about covering and reconciling our sins, not about anger or punishment.
RESURRECTION HOPE
The Resurrection of Jesus is of utmost importance, surpassing even the crucifixion. The significance of Easter, or Resurrection Sunday, lies in Jesus' triumph over death. Without His resurrection, our faith's central point, the crucifixion, would be meaningless. The resurrection assures our hope, promises our own resurrection, justifies us, and defeats death, granting us eternal life.
