May I ask a question? Why do people say, "Christ is Risen" rather than "Christ has Risen"?

We went to a wonderful sunrise service on a pier that juts out into the Atlantic. It was a spectacular sunrise. A joyous holiday to all!

[quote="themetfairy":2a1dxwqv]May I ask a question?

There are many churches, among just about all Christian denominations, known as The Church of the Risen Christ.

OK. I'm still not quite sure I get it, but thanks.

If you substitute 'resurrected' for 'risen' it is a bit clearer.

happy easter!

@swan - the grammar still throws me. @marathon - too adorable!

DocTee Apr 04 2010 08:59 PM Re: Happy Easter to all

Saying "has risen" refers (or could) to an event in the past. He died, he rose, he went away. "Is risen" is present-- he died, rose, and is still here.

I'm a little closer to getting it. Thanks Doc.
