Authentic Christ-Centered Worship, Study, and Sometimes Just Plain Silliness!

Easter Day


Background

“Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed.” (1 Cor 5:6–8) By the shed blood of Christ, the Lamb of God, eternal death has passed over us. Now we pass with Christ through death into life everlasting. For Christ the crucified One is risen! The stone has been rolled away from the tomb, revealing that the tomb could not hold Him. (Mk 16:1–8) The Redeemer lives eternally to save us from sin and Satan and the grave. We live in the sure hope of our own bodily resurrection with Christ. “After my skin has been destroyed, this I know, that in my flesh I shall see God.” (Job 19:23–27) Feasting on the living Christ, who is our meat and drink indeed (Hymn of the Day), we boldly say, “O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?. . .Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!” (1 Cor 15:51–57)
