Easter Sunday is about the resurrection of Jesus!
Do we give the message of the resurrection of Christ
enough thought and time in congregational life?
The central message of Easter is the resurrection of
Christ. That is why we till Pentecost Sunday focus on this most important of
all Christian truths, that Jesus was raised from the dead - and we call it
Eastertide.
Indeed, all Christian worship throughout the year
testifies of the resurrection of Christ. The fact that Christians worship on
Sunday, the first day of the week, instead of on Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath,
testifies that the resurrection of Jesus is the fundamental truth on which
Christianity stands.
Jesus rose on the first day of the week. And we worship
on the first day of every week, to say to the world that we serve a risen
Saviour. Sunday worship testifies every Sunday of the importance of the
resurrection to every Christian and all of humanity.
Jesus is alive. He did conquer and we are redeemed!
Let’s celebrate Eastertide with joy, vigour, faith,
commitment, faithfulness and much love.
