He is Risen!

He is risen indeed!

Matt 28:5-6 "And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. Matt 28:6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay."

Easter Sunday marks the epicenter of the Christian's faith. Many people around the world would acknowledge that Jesus was a fine teacher or a prophet and therefore may celebrate His birth day in December with no qualm. Resurrection Sunday though, that is the final line over which many will not cross. To believe that this man (who was Divine) came to us on earth, preached, loved, rebuked, and died...then rose again, is the difference in where one will spend their eternity.

Don't wait any longer. If you have questions about what this day means., who Jesus was, why the sound of the nails being hammered into the hands and feet upon the cross rings down to this day! Please find a bible believing Christian to ask and discuss, and pray with. Today may be the day: the day your eternity begins...or the day your death comes. Do not delay!

In His precious name.

An Inconvenient Truth

People try to refute the fact that Jesus is the Son of the Most High God. I used to be one of them. I used to think that Jesus was a prophet, rabbi, teacher. A good man, who taught some nice things. But God incarnated? That was a stretch.

As I've studied, prayed, and grown, I have learned that there are many irrefutable facts of the Truth. Jesus rose from the dead. People saw it. People wrote about it. People proclaimed it. They died for it. If the reports were false, the people hearing this news who were in the vicinity would have refuted it. The tomb was empty. More than that, the grave clothes were laid out with an impression of a human form still billowed underneath them. The two ton stone was moved. And so on. There are seven points of this fact of history excellently laid out here, with some excerpts below:

"The writers of the four Gospels either had themselves been witnesses or else were relating the accounts of eyewitnesses of the actual events. In advocating their case for the gospel, a word that means "good news," the apostles appealed (even when confronting their most severe opponents) to common knowledge concerning the facts of the resurrection.

"F. F. Bruce, Rylands professor of biblical criticism and exegesis at the University of Manchester, says concerning the value of the New Testament records as primary sources: "Had there been any tendency to depart from the facts in any material respect, the possible presence of hostile witnesses in the audience would have served as a further corrective."

"You can trust God right now by faith through prayer. Prayer is talking with God. God knows your heart and is not so concerned with your words as He is with the attitude of your heart. If you have never trusted Christ, you can do so right now."

The prayer I prayed is: "Lord Jesus, I need You. Thank You for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life and trust You as my Savior. Thank You for forgiving my sins and giving me eternal life. Make me the kind of person You want me to be. Thank You that I can trust You.""

Facts are facts, Caesar conquered. King Henry had 8 wives. Alexandria had a magnificent library. Jesus lived, died, and rose again. Call upon Him now as your Savior! No man knows the number of his days. Wouldn't you like to dwell with Jesus in heaven forever? Repent now and accept Him. Amen!!
