The Spirit's presence is a fulfillment of Jesus' promise in <a href="/john/14-16.htm">John 14:16-17</a>, where He assures His disciples of the coming Helper. The resurrection power signifies victory over death, a central theme in Christian theology, affirming the hope of eternal life. The indwelling Spirit is a mark of true believers, as seen in <a href="/1_corinthians/3-16.htm">1 Corinthians 3:16</a>, where Paul states that believers are God's temple.He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead This refers to God the Father, who, according to <a href="/acts/2-24.htm">Acts 2:24</a>, raised Jesus, breaking the bonds of death. The resurrection is a cornerstone of Christian faith, as it validates Jesus' divinity and His victory over sin and death. It fulfills Old Testament prophecies, such as <a href="/psalms/16-10.htm">Psalm 16:10</a>, which speaks of God not allowing His Holy One to see decay. The resurrection is also a type of the future resurrection of believers, as Paul elaborates in <a href="/1_corinthians/15.htm">1 Corinthians 15</a>.will also give life to your mortal bodies This promise of life to mortal bodies points to the future resurrection of believers, a hope that is central to Christian eschatology.

It will even react upon that material body which had just been spoken of as given over to death. Die it must; but the same Spirit to which the soul owes its life will also reinfuse life into the dead body, just as the body of Christ of Himself was raised from the dead.By his Spirit . . .--The balance of authority is in favour of the reading, "because of His Spirit" (as in margin); the other is an Alexandrian correction. It cannot be thought that God would leave in the grave that body in which His own Spirit has dwelt, i.e., has been with not only in close but permanent contact, though the psychological question was, of course, not present to the mind of the Apostle. <a href="/commentaries/romans/8-11.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div>And δὲ (de) Conjunction <a href="/greek/strongs_1161.htm">Strong's 1161: </a> A primary particle; but, and, etc. if εἰ (ei) Conjunction <a href="/greek/strongs_1487.htm">Strong's 1487: </a> If.
