Jesus - conqueror in humility - An Easter Special

Happy Easter and a blessed morning (or whatever time it is in your current timezone at present) to you all.

To all believers, it is undoubtedly true that our LORD JESUS CHRIST died for us and rose in the third day, as detailed in the scriptures (Matthew 17:22-24; 16:21, Mark 9:30; 8:31, and Luke 9:22; 18:31-32). This is a joyful incidence, because with his death, the sins of mankind also died, (Colossians 1:21-22) and by his resurrection, death was defeated for eternity. Moreover, generations to follow were redeemed from the clutches of sin and death. (1 Thessalonians 5:10, and John 3:16) Although, we will all die someday, it is only temporary, and as Christ resurrected, so shall we be brought back to life again to be with him in glory.

As a matter of fact, HIS death rescued us from the wrath to come - 1 Thessalonians 1:10. So today HE is very much alive and therein lies
our hope and joy.

My dear friends, amongst you may lie a believer, an agnostic or an atheist. Nonetheless, there is a lot to be learnt from this sad, yet glorious event. Most important, Christ demonstrated humility by subjecting himself to such defamatory and pernicious treatment at the hands of common men. But, in the end HE was victorious through HIS resurrection, and glory to GOD ALMIGHTY death was defeated forever.

Today, we are free from death, for those who are smart enough to comprehend the meaning thereof. Be happy and merry for Christ the undisputed REDEEMER lives and dwells amongst his followers.

"Humility will make us conquerors and victorious in all  areas of our lives." For God exalts a humble man with honor - James 4:10.

Remember, to always seek him despite your imperfections and he will always answer you if you are sincere.

God Bless.
