How does nature testify to the resurrection?

Nature testifies to resurrection because a kernel of wheat must fall into the ground and die before it brings forth much fruit. Every springtime, when things shoot from the ground and crops are planted, creation constantly reminds us of resurrection.

Les explains that this principle runs throughout all of God's creation. A seed stays alone in its container until it is put into the ground with moisture and sunlight, and then it must die, become corrupt, and out of that death comes a new stem, eventually producing many kernels. He tells his classes in Oklahoma that if you are aware of it, everything seen in nature is constantly screaming the fact of resurrection. Every springtime, when things begin to shoot out of the ground and crops are planted in gardens, it is a reminder of the resurrection, because Jesus Himself used that analogy.
