Easter 2015 was four days ago. In our technology driven culture that seems like an eternity. But it is not. eternity is forever. But where will it be spent. On my own, I cannot spend eternity with God. There is a great divide. My sin keeps me from crossing that divide but Christ's finished work on the Cross and through His resurrection provides the bridge that allows me into God's presence. It allows me a personal relationship with Christ. It is what Christ secured through the cross and His resurrection. That is reason to sing the Hallelujah Chorus!
Trusting in Christ Is the first way we keep Easter alive. Christ's love for us is the reason for Easter. Christ secured our salvation because of his great love for us.
We keep Easter alive by trusting in the power of the resurrection. The power that raised Christ from the dead is available to those who have placed their faith in Christ for salvation. As we trust In God's power, He does what seems impossible. It may be in a miraculous way and other times by enabling his children to tap into his strength and do His will.
Philippians 4:13New International Version (NIV)
13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
We keep Easter alive by sharing message of the gospel as well as living it out before others.
Matthew 28:18-20New International Version (NIV)
The Great Commission
All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
Let's keep Easter alive as we trust in Christ's power for the small and large needs we see and as we minister and share the Word and love of Christ!
