  The Beginning… of Everything

  (Genesis 1:1-2:3)

• April 01, 2018The Resurrection

  The Resurrection

  Jesus’ resurrection speaks of more than the possibility of life after death.

  Jesus said: “I am the resurrection and the life.” Sound a little strange?

  Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, the judge of everything… and he has started judging.

  The one who believes in Jesus will live, even though they die.

  Do you believe?

  Dear God,

  I am sorry for ignoring you and not living for you.

  Thank you for Jesus’ atoning sacrifice and for the reality of his resurrection.

  Please forgive me and help me live for Jesus.

  Amen
