He has risen, as he said he would. Alleluia, alleluia.

“..in his accepting death as a human being and in his rising from the dead, he achieved a new phase of evolutionary existence for the human species, into which he could then usher his fellow humans. In this way he would save them from individual death and extinction, which appeared to be the evolutionary fate of all human things,and would impart to humans through that association with him that richer share and eternal communion in the divine Trinitarian life that is God’s evolutionary design for them ” (Jack Mahoney, SJ :’Christianity in Evolution’)
