He is Risen indeed.
I awaken this blessed Easter, Resurrection Day to relive the news again, He is NOT in the grave He is risen, just as He said!
All praise to God for my sins -- though they are many -- have been forgiven!
Amen to that!
Today is the day the Devil broke out in sweat.
Amen! He is Risen Indeed!
Χριστὸς ἐγήγερται ἐκ νεκρῶν !
Hallelujah! Happy Easter everyone!
Just as last week we could not forget that Jesus is risen, in our celebration now let us not forget Jesus on the cross. Our life balances the paradox of the crucified and risen Lord, just as both are present to Him always.
A great and joyous day - Happy Easter!
Christos anesthei!
He was... "raised for our justification"(Rom 4:25) Isn't that interesting scripture?
Happy Easter to everybody. (isn't the word "Easter" strange for us Christians? In Czech we have "The Great Night Feast")
What glorious Easter hymns we sang this morning! Christ is risen, and death hath lost its sting! Hallelujah!!

Yes it is spectacular that our Lord is Risen!
Loved the above hymm that we sung to Him today!!
Looking forward to another hymm that we sing 'Crown Him with many Crowns' !!!
Yup, we sang that one too. Here are some more faves we sang this morning (we have an awesome hymnal, and great four-part harmony singing by the whole congregation, with piano accompaniment; it's like a foretaste of being in the heavenly choir!):
THE STRIFE IS O’ER, THE BATTLE DONEhttp://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/s/t/strifeis.htm
COME, YE FAITHFUL, RAISE THE STRAINhttp://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/c/o/comyfait.htm

CHRIST, WHO LEFT HIS HOME IN GLORYhttp://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/c/w/l/cwlhhing.htm
Other favorites that we didn't do this year but that we often do:
O SONS AND DAUGHTERS, LET US SING!http://rockhay.tripod.com/worship/music/osonsanddaughters.htm
CHRIST IS ALIVE! LET CHRISTIANS SINGhttp://www.oremus.org/hymnal/c/c055.html
Praise the Lord that our redeemer lives! To know He had us on His mind before we were even formed in our mother's wombs just blows me away. He gave His life and then rose from the grave for all of humanity. And because He lives I can certainly face tomorrow knowing that we have total victory.
Thank you Jesus!
