Good Friday and Easter [Resurrection] Day have just come and go. For Christians, you probably have heard this before but I'll say it again anyway:
God, in His great love, sent the Perfect Son, Jesus, to come down to this earth and to later die on the terrible cross for our sins. He was the perfect sacrificial Lamb. By His blood, our sins are forgiven when we choose to believe in Jesus. Some people ask, 'What's the big deal of having your sins forgiven?' I think that the greatest need of everyone is to have their sins forgiven, to have that yoke of bondage taken off to be carried by someone else. No amount of money, looks, fame, sex, intelligence can take away your sins, that's why Jesus had to be the only one to set us free. And guess what? He also rose from the dead after 3 days in the tomb. Not everyone sees the significance of this. It means that we serve a living God!!! He is the real God who overcomes Death even! Well, there are a lot of theories out there on how Jesus did not resurrect blah blah, well go read The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel. It'll be a good book that'll explain a lot of stuff.
My church did a healing rally and the invited speaker was very anointed and many people got healed of long-time ailments and pains. My God is the great HEALER!!! Come on and shout unto God with a voice of triumph!
So I hope Good Friday wasn't just a public holiday for you and that Easter was a chance to chew on a yummy chocolate egg. It's so much more than that.
