"knowing that Christ, having been raised up out of the dead, doth no more die, death over him hath no more lordship" (Romans 6:9 YLT)
Another scripture that would indicate some important change occurred when Christ was raised from the dead. His everlasting Father bequeathed immortality to him.
I am reminded of Hebrews 7:16, which says: "And this becomes even clearer when another priest arises who is like Melchizedek, who has become such, not by the legal requirement that depends on fleshly descent, but by the power of an indestructible life. For it is said in witness of him: “You are a priest forever in the manner of Melchizedek.”"
