(He didn't raise him himself!)
"Confess Christ as Lord and believe with your heart God raised him from the dead and you will be saved", Romans 10:9.
"And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power",
1Cor6:14.
God YHWH raised Christ Yeshua (his true Hebrew name) from the dead. Christ really died completely; there was no hidden part of him stil alive. And that is crucial because Christians will be raised back to life in the same way Christ was risen Romans8:11 tells us:
"If the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you".
Christ's name is Yeshua meaning in Hebrew "he that saves them from their sins", which he did by sacrificing himself at the cross in that way embodying atonement for our sins. Everyone accepting Christ as his/her personal Saviour (by baptism of faith in Christ; Acts19:5) will stand clean before God YHWH and can receive God's Spirit in that clean bodily temple (by prayer with the laying on of hands after the baptism took place; Acts19:6).
Christ received God's Spirit after baptism and thus was connected to the Eternal God YHWH and when Christ died God could wake him up from death. Also Christians in Christ and with God's Spirit will be risen from death just as God raised Christ.
"And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him", Matthew3:16
Church people however don't believe in 1 Lord and 1 true God, but instead in the fabricated trinity or biunity godhead that actually comes from Babylon with 3 names that are no actual names.
And thus they think joining Christ means joining all parts of that pagan churchgodhead; taking Acts2:38 as prove for it. Yet also receiving God's Spirit during the Outpouring period when being baptized had nothing to do with that pagan churchgod fabricated in the 4th century as we know from the teachings and practice of the Apostles after the Outpouring period in Acts8:16-18 and Acts19:5+6:
"for he had not yet fallen on any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.Then they laid their hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit. Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands", Acts 8:16-18
"On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
And when Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they began speaking in tongues and prophesying", Acts19:5-6
Clearly the Apostles didn't just baptize and clearly they baptized in the name of Christ (Yeshua) (and not in 3 names that are no names!).
In order to receive God's Spirit:
1. You need the believe in 1 true God named YHWH (a Spirit, John4:24) and in 1 Lord Christ named Yeshua, John17:3, John 3:18).
2. You need to lay that faith accordingly; baptism to Christ followed by prayer with the laying on of hands leading to God and Spiritual Gifts.
With that Spirit received you can be resurrected by God just as He resurrected Christ!
But how about the verse suggesting Christ will raise himself?!
Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”, John2:19.
Christ did rise (and raised his body up) after he died, because God woke him up from death and gave him the Command to do so. God works the same with Christians:
"For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of Command with the voice of an archangel and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first", 1Thess4:15
An archangel with the Command of God and with the sound of the trumpet of God will be send and then the dead in Christ [and in Spirit] will rise!
ALSO IMPORTANT:
Clearly there is no instant heaven or hell after death, but one Resurrection leading to life eternal and a 1,000 years later a resurrection to Verdict and eternal death instead!
Overall:
1. Get to know God YHWH
2. Build up a relationship with Christ too!
3. Join Christ and afterwards join God
PS: Jesus is not the true and needed name of Christ, but the pagan church brand instead!
