Easter Sunday

[Lace em up]

Easter is the most important day of the year for Christians.

On this day, Christians celebrate that Jesus Christ rose from the dead three days after his suffering and death by crucifixion.

Christians believe Christ undertook his suffering and death willingly on our behalf, in obedience to God the Father, so that all of humanity may have hope for a new life with Him and God the Father in heaven.

At the heart of Christianity is this act of God’s love for humanity. That God would send his one and only Son to die so that we may live.

On Easter, we celebrate that God’s love overcomes even death. On Easter, we celebrate that goodness overcomes evil.

Easter is exactly the right time to assess the growing threats to humanity, and especially threats toward Christians who always stand in the way of those who would coerce belief and enslave their fellow man.

Christianity today is under siege on two fronts. On one front is a growing secular tyranny which violates the First Commandment and seeks to place human wishes ahead of God. This tyranny also increasingly violates the First Amendment in a campaign to use the power of government to force Christians to violate their religious beliefs.

On the other front is an irreconcilable wing of Islam which, in every country it dominates, is seeking to drive out Christianity. It has been horrifying to watch the spread of ISIS in Iraq, Syria and beyond. It has been equally dismaying to see the treatment of Christians, especially young Christian women, in Nigeria at the hands of Boko Haram, and the countless other atrocities committed by radical Islamist groups around the world.

On Easter Sunday, ask yourself some simple questions.

Do you believe that the Son of God rose from the dead?

Do you believe you can be saved through faith in Jesus Christ?

Do you believe God loves you?

If you answer yes to these questions, isn’t it time to stand up to the growing secular tyranny and the irreconcilable wing of Islam which seek to destroy the religion that offers hope and salvation to us and all of humanity?

It really is that simple, and Easter is the day to think about it.

Callista and I wish you and your family a blessed Easter.

Happy Sunday.

I've been thinking about visiting a church lately but sadly all the nearby ones are closed temporarily. Also, it's been raining heavily this morning. I didn't want to look at the road or I'd remember skipping school.

Thankfully it wasn't long lasting. They never are anyway, I did listen to the clouds screaming otherwise. I didn't understand what they whispered in the end.

I did get a call from my mother and then my father so, we're even clouds.

It is Sunday.

According to the Book of Exodus, the Sabbath is a day of rest on the seventh day, commanded by God to be kept as a holy day of rest, as God rested from creation. The practice of observing the Sabbath (Shabbat) originates in the biblical commandment "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy".

Thank you,
God bless.

I haven't been to commercial church much over the past several years. I was really into the Vineyard church for a long time. It was the rock and blues worship music that got me interested in the early 2000's. I went so far as to play bass for the church in front of 2000 people on the weekends. It was a blast but I melted down. I was and still am not married. I just never felt married enough for church and never really made any good friends there.

Now I self study. Good Friday and Easter are important to me. This year I read the entire New Testament out loud. I started on Matthew, the entire book, on Thursday, Mark on Good Friday, Luke on Saturday and John on Easter Sunday. I read each book of the New Testament, out loud and entirely thru the month and really felt empowered when I completed reading Revelation, not stop, out loud, on a Sunday. It is a powerful spell, in my opinion. I wish everyone would read the bible out loud. Just think of how the enemy would shake in fear if that vibration was in this world.

One thing that Roosh said on Babylon road that I really liked was (paraphrasing) "you must reach a spiritual level to prepare to see heaven". I think I experienced the spirit level and it is a great feeling. No fear in that level.

It is the "Good Spell," after all!

That was my conclusion and it really is that simple

spell => spelling => words => the word => the logos

John 1:1 In the beginning was the word and the word was with God, and the word was God.

Thanks for the attention friend. It took me a long time to get it, 20 years of self study. I use to have speech difficulties and reading the Bible out loud has improved my speech greatly. The Bible can heal in every way. Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed

I wish everyone would read the bible out loud.

Words of wisdom. Anything I read aloud does a much better job staying in my head.
