How can you deny the truth about the creation that’s written in Genesis? It’s obvious that God is the creator of everything. I believe that with all my heart.
1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness
was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Genesis 1:1-2 KJV
3. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God
divided the light from the darkness. 5. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he
called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
Genesis 1:3-5 KJV
Host for this week: Spiritual Unequal Marriage Happy Easter everyone! This week we are celebrating Easter. If we are a Christians we are aware that the true meaning of Easter is not about Easter egg or bunny chocolates. I am celebrating Easter because of Jesus Christ who died for me and rose from the dead. John 3:16 (New International Version)
16″For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[a] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal savior but that’s not enough because I am still a sinner and so Jesus has to die to save me and you!
8But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! 10For if, when we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Romans 5:8-10 (New International Version)
Acts 4:12 (New International Version)
12Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.”
Matthew 20:28 (New International Version)
28just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Matthew 26:28 (New International Version)
28This is my blood of the[a] covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
Romans 6:23 (New International Version)
23For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[a] Christ Jesus our Lord. Therefore, I thank you God for sending your son Jesus Christ to die for me to save my sins. Thank you for your love and mercy.
“Praise the LORD! Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? Who can declare all His praise?” Psalm 106:1-2 (NIV)
Note: The video on the bottom is very graphic scene. If you choose not to view it I’ll understand. If the verse makes you teary eyed and so this video.
Believing in Jesus makes us a new person!
17Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NlV)
Why did Jesus die?
What happened after Jesus died?
Why can we be happy at Easter time?
We can be happy at Easter time because Jesus’ death paid for our sins. We praised God for Jesus’ death and resurrection.
Jesus dies on the Cross
25It was the third hour when they crucified him. 26The written notice of the charge against him read: THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27They crucified two robbers with him, one on his right and one on his left.[a] 29Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads and saying, “So! You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days, 30come down from the cross and save yourself!”
31In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him among themselves. “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! 32Let this Christ,[b] this King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” Those crucified with him also heaped insults on him.
The Death of Jesus
33At the sixth hour darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?”—which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”[c]
35When some of those standing near heard this, they said, “Listen, he’s calling Elijah.”
36One man ran, filled a sponge with wine vinegar, put it on a stick, and offered it to Jesus to drink. “Now leave him alone. Let’s see if Elijah comes to take him down,” he said.
37With a loud cry, Jesus breathed his last.
38The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. Mark 15: 25-38 (NIV)
