Easter

Easter,
It is so sad how we have allowed Satan to come in and insert the “Easter Buddy” in place of Christ.
We will never be able to fathom what took place on the Cross. Our Lord bared not only the sins of the believers, but the sins of the whole world. While he hung on the cross he was so disfigured not just from the flogging he was given, but from the sins on the world he bared.
Not to many of us take the time to realize the stress he was under at the garden of Gethsemane.
It was not death on the cross he feared. He came on purpose to die. He feared lest He might not get through as the Son of Man. He could get through as the Son of God-Satan could not touch Him there: but Satan’s onslaught was that He would get through as an isolated Figure only; and that would mean that He could be no Saviour. Satan was defeated and this was his final onslaught against our Lord as Son of Man is in Gethsemane.
The agony in Gethsemane is the agony of the Son of God in fulfilling His destiny as the Saviour of the World. The veil is drawn aside to reveal all it cost Him to make it possible for us to become sons of God. His agony is the basis of the simplicity of our salvation. The Cross of Christ is a triumph for the Son of Man. It was not only a sign that Our Lord had triumph to save the human race. EVERY human being can get through into the presence of God now because of what the Son of Man went through. -insert from The Utmost for His Highest; Oswald Chambers

We celebrate Easter that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ paid a high price for us, but the one thing we really need to understand that if we only believe in God the Father, Jesus Christ and the cross we will never enter into the Pearly Gates.
We have to believe also in the Resurrection of Christ. If we do not believe in the whole part and partial we are saved. 1Corinthians 15:1-4. If it was not for the resurrection than we cannot be
resurrected with our saviour when he returns.

We live in the “Grace Period”. Paul’s gospel is the only gospel who speaks of grace.
If we follow the four gospels than we do not have the resurrection of Christ.
