Easter. Two.

The Resurrection!

Jesus in not dead like the heads of other religions past and present, He is alive with His Father in Heaven awaiting that great day of His return, when those who refused to believe in Him will see Him and hide!

The rising if Jesus from the grave is the essential factor for our salvation plan, since we rise with Him in believers baptism to the promised eternal life!

Jesus always hinted to His disciples the way that he was going to die and be raised on the third day!

Jesus spent forty days on earth appearing to over five hundred people, apart from His disciples and then in the Ascension he return t heaven?

In the resurrection we are freed from the curse of the law and we are free from the sting of death!

Mark 8:31, 9:30-31, Acts 2:31-33, Romans 6:5-11.

The Resurrection!

The second element of the Easter Event!

It is strange that many people who claim to be Christians do not fully believe or understand what the resurrection of Jesus is about or even believe it?

But the New Testament is full of scriptures that are related to the raising of Jesus from the grave for our Salvation to be completed and there is really no excuse not to believe by faith this event as to that of the atoning work of the Cross/Stake/Tree?

Without the resurrection of Jesus from the grave we cannot be saved these are the two essential parts of the Easter story and they are both important, since Jesus always told His Disciples and the Gospels still speak to us today of these events of being rejected by people and being murdered and rising from the dead on the third day!

Acts 2:27, 29, 31, 13:34-36, Romans 8:34, 1 Corinthians 15:4, 2 Corinthians 5:15, 1 Thessalonians 4:14, 2 Timothy 2:8, Hebrews 13:20, 1 Peter 1:21.
