I drove to Panama City Beach to go to church with my daughter and granddaughters. I was very glad they wanted to go to church. The church was different for me and had worship music that sounded like country music. But they also sang a couple of well-known Easter hymns.
The Pastor delivered two sections with the same message.
The summarized sermon was the message of sin and salvation. Man is at odds with God. But before tine began, God had a plan to reconcile sinners back to Him - the work of Christ. Jesus died as a substitute for sinners.
Humans have the responsibility to repent and believe that Jesus is the son of God, He died for our sins and rose from the dead. We have to accept Jesus as our Lord. Jesus will return as King of kings, Lord of lords. Once you accept Christ as Lord, the Holy Spirit lives in you and you will live in eternity.
Then the Pastor read the Easter story from Scripture where God tells the story: John 19:1- 20:18, 30-31.
For the son has come to seek and save the lost. Luke 19:10.
The Christian can have abundant life in God's Kingdom, current and future. John 10:10. Abundant is a life of value. We miss out because we lose focus on God’s Word. Abundant life cannot be manufactured. It comes only from God.
Jesus is alive, calling your name. He is The Risen King.

I found this song today which is perfect for Resurrection Day!
Thank You Jesus for the Blood.
Matthew 28:5-7 NIV
5 The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”
Praise God for the Gift of salvation through the blood of His Son, Jesus Christ!!
