"He Is Risen"
He is risen,
And lives forever more.
He has conquered death,
Passing through its door.
He is risen
Bodily from the grave.
He is alive.
Our debt's been paid.He is risen,
As Lord in my life.
He is my deliverer,
From sorrow and strife.
He is risen,
And is alive for sure.
Jesus is Lord,
Now and forever more. by John Marinelli
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead"~1 Peter 1:3~
"The next day, the one after Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate. "Sir," they said, "we remember that while he was still alive that deceiver said, 'After three days I will rise again.' So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day. Otherwise, his disciples may come and steal the body and tell the people that he has been raised from the dead. This last deception will be worse than the first."
"Take a guard," Pilate answered. "Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how." So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal on the stone and posting the guard."~Matthew 27:62-66~
"After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men. The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you." ~Matthew 28:1-7~
Jesus said, "All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out. "For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. "This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day. "For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day." ~John 6:37-40~
Jesus Christ today is risen,
And o'er death triumphant reigns;
He has burst the grave's strong prison,
Leading sin herself in chains. —Luther
*Christ's resurrection is the bud of promise—our resurrection is the flower of fulfillment!*
Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o'er His foes;
He arose a Victor from the dark domain,
And He lives forever with His saints to reign. —Lowry
*The resurrection is a fact of history that demands a response of faith.*
"The cross is the symbolof the finish work of Jesus 2000 years ago, the exceptance by the Father through His death pays our sin debt in full. The resurrection is God's way to shout to the world excepted so we know when we come to him & ask him to forgive us of our sin we are pardon forever."--Dr.Charles Stantely
*Because He lives I can face tomorrow.Because He lives my life is changed forever. Praise the Lord!!*
