RESURRECTION SUNDAY!!!!!!
Today we celebrate the FACT that Christ has risen from the grave and is ALIVE!!!! Many try to explain away the resurrection. There are many theories floating around explaining away the resurrection. Paul in 1 Corinthians sets before us historical evidence for the resurrection. He mention various people the Lord appeared to and times that the Risen Lord had appeared. These aren't just appearances where Christ flashes before their eyes or the people where seeing a vision or they were hypnotized. The reason is, Christ not only appeared, but He interacted with them. He spoke to them, He ate with them, He taught them. Christ after His death was relational with His people and still to this day Christ desires to be relational with us. So on this blessed day, remember all that Christ has done, remember the resurrection is fact and since Christ has risen from the dead those of us who are in Christ will rise again, but before that time remember also what He told His disciples before ascending back into heaven. He gave them what is called the great commission. Christ wants to live His life through us, He wants to continue the mission in which He has started, through us. He is calling out a people unto Himself and we get to share in that goal. This time of year is a great open door to speak of the things of Christ. Can I encourage you though, this is the day we celebrate, but Christ is living everyday and we can use everyday as an opportunity to share the love of Christ and let others know exactly what Christ has done for us all.
