Chapel Hill, NC Friday, April 4, 2014 “I have hope toward God . . . that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.” - Acts 24:15. God has given Jesus the power to raise the dead. He can bring the dead back to life again. In addition, Jesus promises that he will do this soon under the rule of God’s kingdom. What a happy time that will be! “Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.”—John 5:28, 29. .
