✦ MADE SIMPLE

And about dead people coming back to life — haven't you read what Moses wrote? When God spoke to him from that burning bush, he said 'I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.'

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

God doesn't say 'I was' their God — he says 'I am,' because they're still alive with him.
