It's Easter! Resurrection Sunday!
What this day represents is what our faith as Christians hinges on. If Christ didn't rise from the dead, what else matters? Tim Keller says,
"If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all that he said; if he didn’t rise from the dead, then why worry about any of what he said? The issue on which everything hangs is not whether or not you like his teaching but whether or not he rose from the dead."
And that is why we REJOICE, because HE IS RISEN! JESUS IS ALIVE!
"But the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you." Matthew 28:5-7
This morning, we made resurrection rolls.
The "tomb" is empty!
Happy Easter from The Mills!
