It's a Simple Story....."Christ Is Risen"---(What the Liberals want you to forget)
3/26/05 | redrock

" He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay."
Matt 28:6

It's a Simple Story...yet one filled with the wonder of life...and the wonder of the triumph of Life OVER Death.

It's a Simple Story...of how a Child was born into this world over 2,000 years ago. Of how that Child taught us...and how the powers of the world were made afraid by those teachings. Because the teachings taught us that each of us was a Child of God...that each of us had worth. The teachings gave us a better way to live...and to treat each other.

It's a Simple Story...of how God, thru that Child, gave us a glimpse into the truth of our existence now....and the truth of our Eternal lives.

...and yet, that Simple Story made some so afraid (and perhaps hateful) that they put the Child, now a Man, to death. They tortured Him...and then drove nails thru His flesh...binding Him to a Cross. They denied Him food...and water...making His death even more painful.

But, because of who He was and to fulfill God's promise, after 3 days he conquered death...and lived once more.

True...we have argued over and over about the meaning of His death...and which part had to play out...and which part didn't mean much...but the simple fact remains.And true...many will try and argue that it was all a lie...that nothing really happened.

But it's a fact....He was put to death.....and He conquered death...and lives again.

It's a Simple Story.....He Lives.

May you all have a Blessed Easter.
