Christ is Risen

John 20, Colossians 3:1-4

This message was pre-recorded and then placed on the church website.
COVID-19 has brought us face to face with a new reality.  This did not surprise God and can be used in a fallen world.  We need to be aware of those in need and demonstrate Grace.  We need to respect the experts and others feelings.

Death and Life is the heart of the Easter message.  The Good News is Christ died for our sins.  He paid the ransom.  To ransom is to redeem.  Christ is our redeemer.  

More to think about

• When Peter and John ran to the empty tomb that morning we read in John 20:8 that John believed.  There is a difference between seeing and believing.

• Believing is to make the truth part of our world.  We act on it. It becomes part of us.  Read Colossians 3:1-4

• Believers have been raised with Christ.  We have taken off the old and put of the new.

• We are no longer in the land of the living going to the land of the dying, but are in the land of the dying going to the land of the living.

As He lives so do we.  That is the promise of Easter.
