From the Pastor’s Desk

Take a look at the empty tomb.

At Easter we think about Jesus, the man on the cross, but do we think much of the empty tomb and the risen Saviour Jesus from the dead?

The empty tomb where the dead Jesus was placed is one of the proven facts of history.

On that Sunday when the female disciples came to anoint the body of Jesus, they found the tomb empty. People searched for the body of Jesus and after 50 days, Peter one of His disciples could stand up in front of a crowd of several thousands in Jerusalem and say that the tomb of Jesus was empty, because He is risen from the dead. In fact, Peter and more than 500 people could testify to having seen Him.

The fact, and it is a fact, that Jesus rose from the dead and still lives is the most important event to have taken place on earth.

What does the death and resurrection of Jesus tell us?

1] Jesus is as He said He was God’s son.

2] We have a body that dies but we have a soul that lives on to eternity.

3] Where our soul goes to eternity, depends on whether we have faith in Jesus, God’s son.

This Easter do not think only of a man dying on the cross, think also of an empty tomb and of the man who rose from the dead.

“He is not here: for He is risen, as He said, come see the place where the Lord lay”. [ Matthew 28:6].

From The Pastor’s Desk

In the troubled world in which we live we see many experts on our screens who give their views or opinions about how to make the world a better place.

Permit me to give two thoughts as to why the world is in such a state. Firstly, we need to understand that all of us do wrong things in our lives. I am not thinking of terrible crimes like murder or child abuse. Instead, those things that we might do everyday of our lives which are wrong such as drinking to much, taking drugs, breaking the civil law, or being angry at someone, being selfish and unloving to those we say we love. We are all guilt, but what can we do about it?

So, secondly, we must understand we are in the wrong. We need to say sorry, the Bible calls this repentance, but who do we say sorry to?

The one who we have wronged of course. More importantly we have to say sorry to God, because it is God Himself that we have wronged ultimately.

God has promised to forgive us, but only if we really believe in Him and in His son Jesus who died on the cross for us, by paying for all the wrongs we have done, we must also tell God that we have done these bad things against Him.

This is God’s promise to us from the Bible. [1. John 1 verse 9].

“If we confess our sins [our wrong things], He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse from all unrighteousness.”

This morning Pastor Mike is going to show us how our immense and amazing God can renew the little strength we feel like we have sometimes, and how God promises that He will do this, from Isaiah 40:28-31.

This evening Pastor Mike picks up where we finished in our passage in 1 Timothy; last week we looked at the different roles God has established for us and this week we look at certain roles and duties that God restricts and why.
