 The Church teaches that Christ's Resurrection guarantees our salvation and that together with His [[Ascension]] it brings to fruition God's union with us for all eternity. While the Resurrection has not yet abolished the reality of death, it has revealed its powerlessness over us in Christ.<ref>Hebrews 2:14-15.</ref>
-Since mankind shares in Christ's Resurrection, the Church teaches that all mankind shall rise from the dead at the Final Judgment. Ergo, Christ is the "first fruits of those fallen asleep."<ref>I Corinthians 15:20.</ref> In the [[Acts of the Apostles]], St. Paul confirms this by saying, "...he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world..."<ref>Acts 17:31.</ref> and "...there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust..."<ref>Acts 24:15.</ref> While the Church does not go into much detail as to the exact events of the Last Day, it is believed that those who love the Lord and follow His commandments will find paradise in His presence, while those who hate him will find infinite torture.

 ===Death Before the Ressurection of Christ===
-Before the ressurection, all the dead would go to Sheol (Hades) wether they were righteous or not. It was a place of darkeness and death.. After Christ was laid into the tomb, he descended into Hades and broke the bonds of death and let out all of the people therein, such as [[David|King David]] and [[Solomon]], [[John the Forerunner|John the Baptist]], [[Adam and Eve|Adam]]. and [[Adam and Eve|Eve]] among others.

-In [[iconography]], according to the Byzantine iconographic type, the Resurrection — as early as the eighth century — is portrayed primarily by the Descent of the Saviour into Hades. Our Lord is depicted pulling up [[Adam and Eve]] out of their sepulchers while trampling upon the gates of Hades (death). In the background stand the Old Testament patriarchs, [[prophet]]s, and other figures, including [[John the Forerunner]], who announced Jesus' advent.

-The [[Gospels]] narrate that after Christ's [[Passion]] and suffering on the [[Cross]], he was laid in a tomb which was donated by [[Joseph of Arimathea]].

 This Resurrection, commemorated every year on [[Pascha|Great and Holy Pascha]] and every week on the [[Lord's Day]], is the most fundamental belief of the [[Church]]. It confirms the authenticity of Christ's teachings, His Godhood and Manhood, and proves the veracity of His work in redeeming mankind from the Fall. Conquering sin and its result, death, Christ is often referred to as the "New [[Adam and Eve|Adam]]," bestowing new life to humanity. As the [[Apostle Paul]] states, "For as by a man came death, by a man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive."<ref>I Corinthians 15:21-22.</ref>
 The Resurrection of Christ is foretold in several Books of the [[Old Testament]], as in [[Hosea|The Book of Hosea]], where the [[prophet]] says, "After two days He shall revive us: in the third day He will raise us up, and we shall live in His sight."<ref>Hosea 6:2.</ref>

 The Holy Resurrection of Our Savior, as a mystery, was invisible and outside the laws and processes of other resurrections, since through the Resurrection and in the Resurrection we do not have a simple resuscitation of the Master’s Body and its egress from the sepulchre, as, for example, in the case of St. [[Lazarus]] (a miracle perceptible to all, and the [eventual] return of his body to corruption), but its transition, as being henceforth “one with God” [ὁμόθεος] and, in an ineffable mystery, to uncreated reality; that is, we have an ontological transformation. A lucid commentary on this Patristic viewpoint is provided by Leonid Ouspensky, who writes:
-:“The unfathomable character of this event for the human mind, and the consequent impossibility of depicting it, is the reason for the absence, in traditional Orthodox iconography, [of any depiction] of the actual moment of the Resurrection.”<ref>Leonid Ouspensky, in Leonid Ouspensky and [[Vladimir Lossky]]. ''The Meaning of Icons.'' Transl. G.E.H. Palmer and E. Kadloubovsky. Crestwood, NY: St. Vladimir’s Seminary Press, 1982. pp.187,185.</ref>
