I would just like to wish my listeners a very Happy Easter weekend. But for those of you who are not Christian let me explain why this holiday is so important to people. No really. Thats all. I promise, this wont hurt a bit.
Christians believe that God, the same God who created the sun and the moon and stars, the same God who, as we celebrate this Passover, loved his people so much that he freed them from the bondage of men, humbled himself to become a man himself and free all from the slavery of sin. So, no matter what youve done no matter what youre doing you are forgiven and he loves you. This is what Christians believe.

I am hoping that the part about repentance in faith being necessary for forgiveness was edited out of the original. Otherwise this sounds a lot like universalism.
It is indeed blasphemy...but happy easter anyway!
