Good morning from Pastor Glen Brock, Baptist Tabernacle Church, Wendell, North Carolina… "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
Today, we celebrate, and we recognize the greatest gift that has ever been given! From the beginning of creation, God desired a relationship with His creation (Man), and He gave us a “Free Will” to live and to enjoy His beautiful creation! The forces of evil (Satan) have challenged mankind at every juncture along the path of living! God’s ultimate purpose was for man to be in harmony and fellowship with Him, so, recognizing our inability to restore ourselves and to enjoy a relationship with Him, because of our sin, He loved us enough, and desired a relationship with us enough, to send Jesus Christ, to suffer, to take our sins upon himself, and to die on an old rugged cross, to pay the price of sin, with His own shed blood, as the one, true and ultimate blood sacrifice for the remission of the sins of mankind, past, present and future! That is the story of Easter! That is the reason for celebration! That is the blessing of His Love for Us! In and of ourselves, we can do nothing to re-establish a “Right” relationship with the Father! PRAISE GOD! He loved us enough that He did send Jesus and Jesus did pay the price, and Jesus did die, and Jesus did rise from the grave and Jesus did exactly what the Father had intended! Today is Easter Sunday 2022! Please, please, please recognize the priceless gift that has been given to mankind! It is my hope and desire that I should celebrate the reason for the Easter celebration, every single day of every year that God allows me to remain on this planet! The message of Easter is simple: God Loves us! He sent Jesus to reestablish our relationship, by paying the price for our sins! HE IS RISEN! I repeat, HE IS RISEN! TO GOD BE THE GLORY! Stay Strong, Stay Focused…THE BEST IS YET TO BE!
