The Easter Effect - Part 2
Religion begins with a human who died and stayed dead.
Christianity began with God who died and rose again and is still alive.
Religion reveres a grave and a dead leader.
Christianity has an empty grave and a risen Lord and Saviour.
Religion tells you what you must do to be saved.
Christianity tells you what Christ has done to save you.
Religion is humanity trying to reach up to God.
Christianity is God in heaven reaching down to save humanity.
Religion tells us how we can deal with our sin and wickedness, what we can do to make ourselves better. How we can pay for our sin.
Christianity tells us how Jesus has paid the price for our sin and wickedness
Resurrection sets Christianity apart…Resurrection demands a response - Romans 10:9
