Easter Sermon 04/04/2021

        Easter and the holidays that are related to it are moveable feasts which do not fall on a fixed date in the Gregorian or Julian calendars which follow only the cycle of the Sun; rather, its date is offset from the date of Passover and is therefore calculated based on a lunisolar calendar similar to the Hebrew calendar. 

         It is a festival and holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day after his burial following his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary c. 30 AD. It is the culmination of the Passion of Jesus Christ, preceded by Lent, a 40-day period of fasting, prayer, and penance.

          Easter Season begins on Easter Sunday and lasts seven weeks, ending with the coming of the 50th day, Pentecost Sunday. In Eastern Christianity, the season of Pascha begins on Pascha and ends with the coming of the 40th day, the Feast of the Ascension.

         1 Peter 1:3 NIV Praise to God for a Living Hope 3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

         1Corinthians 15:21 :21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.

Romans 6:5, NIV: "For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.

           Easter comes from the Anglo-Saxon , Eostre meaning goddess of Spring.  Bunnies are symbols of fertility, While Eggs were seen as symbols of death. These were a way to convert pagans to Christ.

           A Terraptismal is a Reverence directly to the 3 day entombment of are lord Jesus Christ in which a person spends 3 days underground then mimics Ascension and resurrection as promised in  Romans 6:5 NIV; For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
