That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should show light [to shine or make manifest] unto the people, and to the Gentiles. Acts26:23.
God has through his prophets caused many to rise from the dead, but the difference with Christ rising from the dead is that he gave knowledge or revelation of that experience. If we believe that Christ is risen from the dead, then we will have no fear of death because Jesus conquered death and will save us. Death no longer has dominion over us. We then will not be so terrified of disease and turn to man and his inventions for healing [for sickness is insipient death] because Jesus is Life. Halleluiah!
