On Easter morning, Brother Jessie lifts Ephesians 2 to proclaim the heart of the gospel: that Christ’s resurrection is not only a historical miracle but the very power that brings dead souls to life. He reminds listeners that humanity died spiritually in Adam, leaving every person “dead in trespasses and sins,” chasing pleasures that only mimic life while the enemy pulls the strings. But the message turns on two words—But God—whose rich mercy and great love sent a perfect Lamb, without spot or blemish, to bear our sin and become our substitute. Jessie paints the cross vividly, the empty tomb triumphantly, and salvation personally, sharing how the Lord drew him from spiritual death to life with the simple cry, “God save me.” The resurrection becomes more than an event; it becomes the invitation for every listener to experience the same quickening power that raised Christ from the grave.
