PREPARING FOR EASTER!


As we head towards the end of Holy week, we need to ponder the significance of this holiday and event. Many people do not celebrate this day or even consider it at all-except for maybe Easter eggs.

For the Christian, the whole crux of our beliefs are based on the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He is the only One who separates B.C. & A.D. He is the only One by which we tabulate time. Why is this so if he was only a man?

Everyone of us will have to make the choice of whether or not we believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and God incarnate. This decision has eternal consequences.

If you have seen the picture the Passion of the Christ, it provides a vivid illustration of the crucifixion and what Christ went through. I believe this displays only a small aspect of the suffering that Christ endured for all of us.

Take the time to ponder the immense sacrifice that Jesus Christ made to ensure that all those who acknowledge him as the Risen Lord can spend eternity with him.

Hi Jacques .. thanks for reminding us about the significance of Easter and Holy Week.

I liked the obvious connotation between BC and AD ... and your own belief in the Lord.

Thank you -
