Did a good bit of study and reading this last week on this topic. It seems to make sense: if Christ offering himself up on the cross was him making payment for sins, it only seems to follow that the resurrection acted as a "proof of purchase"; that this payment was effective, accepted by the Father. In citing Scripture, most refer either to 1 Corinthians 15:17 or Romans 4:25. But there are at least 3 views on what Romans 4:25 really means, and though this is one way you could take the 1 Corinthians 15:17 passage, it's certainly not the only possible meaning.
I really like the idea of this but am still grappling with if it's truly definitely Scriptural. Are there other Scriptures I'm missing? Any thoughts on this?
