Christians celebrate today, the day that our lord Jesus rose from the grave. He was born in this world to forgive us of our sins. Those who came to follow Jesus during his days on earth thought that he was to become king of the government but his kingdom was much more than that.
His teaching while on earth made heaven a place for everyone not just for the Jews of the Old Testament. Those that were able to hear his teachings in person had a special event in their life but almost all misunderstood him. More feared him because they thought he was going to lead a movement to over throw the government. While those that believed didn't understand what being born again meant.
His teaching were in order to enter heaven you had to be born again but most thought that was dying but the concept was you had to accept Jesus in your heart and when you did that he would fill your body with his spirit and you would be born again where Jesus was the most important reason in your life. He promised if you accepted him he would have a place for you in heaven.
His death on the cross was a shock for those that thought he would be king of the government and for those believers who thought him as the religious leader thought he would never die. Today we celebrate his rise from the grave and forty days after his resurrection from the grave his rise up to heaven to the kingdom he promise us if we believed in him.
Our day will start at Cavalry Baptist Church for Sunrise service as our church Sunset Avenue Baptist alternates sunrise service every other year with them. Praise be to the Lord as he has risen.
