We are now in observance of the greatest events in history to those who believe, and those who have yet to believe? Why, .. because whether you believe or not, God cannot deny Himself or His gift to us, His Only Son, Who came to this planet earth, fully God, and fully man to pay a price He did not owe for man who does owe a debt he (we) cannot pay. Jesus gave His life for you and me on a cruel cross, tortured and shamed in my place, so that I can be restored to a right relationship with God, cleansed and made whole.
"He was wounded for my transgressions, He was bruised for my iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes I was healed". All of my needs were met on that cross the day He died, .... but the victory came when He arose from the grave victorious over death and hell.
He died on Friday, but Sunday morning, He got up!!! We have hope beyond all imagination, to receive life, and that more abundantly through Christ because Satan couldn't keep Him in the grave. In order to believe there is a God (and there is) we have to believe there is a devil loose as well and he intends to keep you from accepting Jesus Christ for the payment of your sin.
Wow, I said "sin" .. yes, all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus. For by grace are you saved by faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, lest any man boast.
We believe with the heart and confess with the mouth to receive salvation. It's time to celebrate the resurrection of Christ, for without the empty tomb, we only have religion and that will not save us.
Let's rejoice in the fact that He Lives, He Lives, Christ Jesus lives today!
