Celebrate Life with Jesus!

Springtime is among us and with that, we think of Easter. Many celebrate this day hunting Easter eggs, trading baskets and having BBQ cook outs with family. Fighting the crowds at the local mall to have their child’s picture taken with the over sized, fuzzy, floppy eared bunny. Dress up in their Sunday’s best to go to one of the only church service they will attend for the year. Some people all over go to church only 2 times a year, Easter Sunday and Christmas. However, it is not about just those “traditions”. Over 2000 years ago, a young man walked the earth spreading the love of God, Healing, teaching and performing miracles. He was shunned, cursed, beaten, hated and was followed and loved by few. His name is Jesus Christ. He was beaten and hung on a cross to die for you and I. To die, for the world to live, throughout eternity. Jesus died for the righteous and the unrighteous. John 3:16 says ”For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Eternal Life through the Birth, Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, Lord of Lords. God, our heavenly Father loved us that much. Romans 5:8 states that “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
Three days after he shed his precious blood on the cross for all humankind, he rose from the dead to ascend to Heaven to sit next to the Father. He is alive today in Heaven with Father God. “For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit…” as stated in 1Peter 3:18.
Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Through his death and resurrection, He is our only way to eternal life with our Heavenly Father. In Acts 2:21 Jesus says that, "And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
You can have a living relationship with your creator right now, today. All you have to do is believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who was sent to earth to die for your sins, Past, Present and Future. Confess it with your mouth, Believe it in your heart, and repent from your sins. Romans 10:8-10: 8 “But what does it say?”The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.
How about spending Easter this year celebrated “Life”, The Life of Christ Jesus in You!
