Jesus paid it all.
All to Him I owe.
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

Question 1: What do we celebrate at Easter?Some people I asked say we celebrate the death of Jesus Christ. What do you say?
Gilberto: We celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead by the glory of the Father.
Romans 6:4,5 "Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Romans 6:4,5 "Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,"
Question 2: Why is this so important?
Chiya: That we have an assurance of eternal life with God when absent from this life! It provides every Christian with the Hope of an eternity with God in Heaven.

Question 3:What does it mean that Jesus Christ came back to life?
Washington: We need to know that Christ’s resurrection brings us an assurance that we also can overcome just like our LORD also did.
We encourage you to read 1Corinthians 15 and Romans 6 for your private study. Let me share a few verses from 1 Corinthians 15:3-4
“3For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,”

This is the summation of the Gospel message that Christ died for our sins, He was buried in the grave and He rose again from the dead on the third day – that is the reason we celebrate his resurrection each Sunday we meet together as believers.
Lastly, How does this give us Hope for today?
“Romans 6:5
“Romans 6:5
For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,
Romans 6:10
For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.
Romans 6:11
Likewise, you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
You and I have by faith been united together with Christ, and are abelt to live for God through the risen Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus died once and for all for your sake and my sake!!
In closing,
1Peter 1:3,4
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
