Christ is Risen!

     And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.
     1 Cor. 15:14 NIV


     The resurrection of Jesus has a profound impact upon our lives. Because Jesus is risen from the dead, we cave freedom from the guilt of sin. We can stand before Him on the day of judgement and be declared not guilty. We do not need to fear death. We too will be raised on that day, and will receive new bodies that will not decay.
     There is power in this life as well. Because Christ arose, we can walk in newness of life. The power of sin is broken. We can live in victory, we can seek the things above where Christ is. We have been quickened by the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead. We have life on this earth, an abundant life lived in communion with God.
      Our broken fellowship with Him is now restored. We who were once aliens to God and His covenant are now brought in and have become His children!
     Live like you believe Christ is truly risen!
