Reforming Easter!

Firstly Easter was the name of an idol! Why should it be connected to our Lord's death? Call it "Resurrection Festival" like the Chinese do.

Secondly, God never died and will NEVER die! Jesus died as a man on that cross. Sin died on that cross. You died on that cross. Sickness died on that cross. Shame died on that cross. The law died on that cross. Almighty God watched the whole afair from His throne, and His demand for justice was satisfied! All of the old creation was put to death that a new creation may be born, bone of His bone and flesh of His flesh! If God died , who raised Jesus from the dead? God dear friends CANNOT die!

Thirdly. You are a new creation in Christ, no longer a slave of sin but a child of God. You now have access to heavenly places and the very throne room of God. Enter boldly dear saint and release Heaven on earth through your prayers. No longer to be called sinners but saints of the Most High! A citizen and ambassador of Heaven on earth, about your Father's business.

Fourthly. The emphasis should be the REASON for His death. He died so we can be like Him! Doing even greater works than Him, as He promised(John 14:12). As Rom 8 says "to be conformed to the image of His Son". His resurrection means nothing if we dont walk in that power. Arise, arise O' church of God! Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before.

More love and power to you!
