Easter Sunday
Matthew 28:1-10
Think about the three days that lead up to the resurrection! What do you think they disciples were thinking? They witness Jesus being arrested, convicted by a kangaroo court, beaten, flogged, and crucified! The day after Jesus death they must had believed that their dreams and hopes of a messiah were over!
Matthew 28:11-20; Matthew 16:13-23
Jesus meets his disciples for the first time and basically says "hello". He has an expectation that they have faith to see that this was God's plan from the beginning and it's time to move forward. There's work to be done! To advance His kingdom!
What God released on Easter Sunday was not comfort or an easy life! The resurrection has the power to change lives and benefit the followers of Jesus but it also causes fear and trouble. The battle had just begun, and the disciples were called to continue the message of the gospel at the risk of loosing their lives and everything they had!
John 20:19-21; John 12:23-25
As Jesus died and calls us to die to ourselves. Die to selfishness, anger, greed, addiction, die to sin!
Acts 17:5-6
God released a plan to change the world on Easter Sunday! God released hope, forgiveness, mercy,salvation, and the power of resurrection!
Matthew 7:15-20
God calls us to be the good tree and bear good fruit. Who are you following? Who is Lord of your life, You or Jesus? This question is answered by your life and the fruit that you produce!
Galatians 5:19-21 bad fruit. Galatians 5:22-24 good fruit!
