Let's Call It Resurrection Day, not Easter
[Let's Call It
Resurrection Day, not Easter
Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries]
"The world calls the greatest day on
the Christian calendar "Easter" in
an attempt to obscure or dismiss the
supernatural miracle that took place
2000 years ago. As Christians, we
should call it "Resurrection Day" in
celebration of the glorious
resurrection of our Lord Jesus
Christ. He "was declared to be the
Son of God in power according to the
Spirit of holiness by his
resurrection from the dead" (Rom.
1:4). We can rejoice in His
triumphant victory over death, sin
and Satan. However, we must never
forget that the battle for the
eternal souls of men continues
throughout the world. Only the truth
of God's Word can slay the lies of
the devil. It is the duty of every
blood-bought Christian to be
actively involved in the Lord's
army, to expose all forms of
deception
and to warn victims who are
embracing a false and fatal gospel.
Let us have a greater compassion for
people who are committed to a r
eligion without any real
understanding of the Gospel of
Christ.
According to God's great mercy, "He
has caused us to be born again to a
living hope through the resurrection
of Jesus Christ from the dead" (1
Pet. 1:3). As ambassadors for the
resurrected King of kings, let us
emulate the apostles who gave "their
testimony to the resurrection of the
Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon
them all" (Acts 4:33). Let us sow
the seed of God's imperishable Word
and pray, in God's providence, the
seed will fall on fertile soil. The
Gospel is the greatest news anyone
could ever hear because it is about
the greatest gift ever given." Pro-Gospel.org
