    We later see that him after the trial, at a restaurant with Darnay. He does nothing other than drink. He orders glass after glass of wine, getting as drunk as possible. One wonders if he ever does anything else. He is rather mean to Darnay after the man thanks him profusely, and continues to drink. We see that not only is he a drunk, he's a mean drunk. And then after Darnay leaves, Carton covers his head, lays down on the table, and tells the waitress to wake him at ten P.M. as he passes out. It almost implies he has nowhere else to go, but mostly just tells a reader that he has nothing better to do.…

    Although Darnay’s sacrifice did not have a huge impact, Carton’s sacrifice changed everyone's lives, and up until he dies he kept repeating “I am the resurrection and the life, saith the Lord: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in me, shall never die”(371). Carton was known for his alcoholic abuse and was looked down upon for all the poor choices he has made. After making the decision of execution he changes Lucie’s and Darnay’s life excessively, and is now looked at with respect and honor, which he deserves. Miss. Pross was looked upon as a loving character up until the fight with Madame Defarge which caused her to “..never hear anything else in the world”(376). Although this scene may not seem as impactful as the other sacrifices it represents the innocence and trauma she experiences which will never allow her to have the same life again in the future.…

    The resurrection of the dead is an important concept for Christians today. Without it, we would have no hope for the future if it were just as nihilism says where we are buried and that it the end there is no meaning to death or life.

The concept of the resurrection gives us hope for the future after death; a future to be with God, which provides meaning for this life and how we live.…
