Entire sermons have been devoted to the weight of an execution on a cross. But those details aren’t the Bible’s focus. In this glorious turning point in human history, discover what the Bible emphasizes and how that can help deepen your worship as Easter approaches!

There is no such thing as Easter! Any real Christian knows that!
God never said we have to celebrate Easter; although, there is no harm in doing so. We do not have to celebrate Easter; but, whether or not someone wants to celebrate and acknowledge the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is their choice. God does not force us to celebrate Easter; but, every Sunday whether we celebrate Easter or not is and should be a reminder of our Lord’s resurrection and our own resurrection if saved ( one of God’s elect ). Every Sunday is a reminder of the resurrection of all God’s elect. Easter is an extention of that and ellaborates on that. I have no problem with this. When talking to people, we should always keep in mind that this is what Easter is all about. A beautiful holiday, if you choose. As the Lord works through us, we should keep this in mind on this blessed and holy holiday.
