21st April 2019 - Easter Celebration Service

I'm just going to read a little from Matthew 28 the starts of the Easter morning Matthew 28 beginning at verse one. That's the first day of the week began system Mary Magdalene and the other Mary Kay and behold there was a great earthquake for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and can't even roll the Stone from the door and sat on it. His countenance was like lightning and his clothing as white as snow and the god shoot for fear of him and became like that man, but the angel Johnson sets of the women do not be afraid for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified he is not here. For He Is Risen as he said come see the place where the Lord lay and go quickly and tell his disciples and he is risen from the dead. I need to eat before you in Tagalog. You will see him behold. I have told you so they went out quickly from the swing which parent great joy and Ryan to bring his disciples were. He is risen. He is risen rhyming song. He was seen as a threat because actually that was many people following you described. It was creating a bit of an opposite in the cities on the town's people talking about this Jesus. It's Jesus inside the Roman officials were not happy. So when heat when they when the accuser said why is messing things up when the power is he said we want him brought to account.

Play Jay-Z opportunity said which would you like to try Jesus or one of the robbers and they they said Jesus for Jesus went to the Cross he was found guilty. What is the thing the Roman officials was so concerned? Nobody put a job to make sure that he's probably wasn't stolen. Would not being a great story. The tomb is empty. So the right ones we can then maybe the Buddy might be selling the same as reason.

But you know what even the god. What type of a cam the tomb a seal to tell you to maybe even just kind of just put him in the Tomb they sealed the to the stone? I'm not the kind of thing that just you or I could just move out of the way.

But you know in these times. The Romans did not want Jesus to Rice. So the first thing and the haze the thing there is so much documentation about the resurrection of Jesus not just in the Bible, but in Roman documents, it's a well-documented piece of asteroid in the Old Testament. Saying that Christ was coming he was going to die. He was going to be crucified Bailey and Isaiah prophesied hundreds of years before down to the detail. I'm not going to go into the details of iPods down to the detail. I'm so Christ was crucified that's a miracle in itself. Cuz he's got something he was sent to this Earth for you and for me and so God sent his son as he says he is. He sexy John 3:16 for God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.

And this is the Crux of all fights at first because I sent you some Son of God Son Of Mine, perfect and everyone. Tempted yes. Yielded. No.

Leave it on the cross said if you're going to fix your will I will follow you. I will do what you need me to tell you. They're on the cross. Even looking at those around about himself forgive them for they know not what they do.

And he cried out to God on that cross instead of Eli Eli Lama sabachthani. My God my God. Why have you forsaken me Jesus just sent the god of Lefty just for him as he died.

But the mt2 speaks of so much more of the Resurrection the historical impact the moment in history 2000 years ago the Christ. Died and rose again, but the impact on us as believers. Okay, we might believe it is historical fact. But so what what does it mean to you? Answer me that God sent his one and only son that should not perish but he he was crucified and he rose again. Because Resurrection needs to be at the center of all fights Resurrection needs to be the center of who we are as Christians. Percent of all many things that can be crucified. Okay today. We remember Christ crucified and his buddy light in the tree. And what would it have been happy with the marriage since they went to dress the body? Yeah. I don't know when you've ever beat when you go to a funeral funeral. You're not excited. Anthony I got addresses body they're going to prepare his body.

And then they get to the Trillium in the stone is rolled away and oh my goodness and there's a angel standing that oh my goodness. Another tomb is empty again, maybe who's stolen his body?

MLB Angel says So he's no longer here. He is. Risen he is risen.

How many must be exciting in October? So then be there and see if Jesus is risen. I would just descendants inside me this. Excitement started just said I will not believe till I put my hand in his side. Even Thomas Thomas doubting Thomas now because of this but I will not be leaving until I see even though the lady said they seen him. I wasn't seen him an act with him and broke. His brother said I will not be able to leave until I put my hand in his son. Another Alberta one of us then maybe a reality that we need to come to a place where we go. We got to a crisis a friend of mine Simon Simon another song and who I used to work with. I'm not a Christian and I he came in to me one day and he shut the door of my office and he sat down I want anybody comes into the office and shuts the door is shut it and make sure that the locket clicked shut down.

How do you say tomato? Do you have to go through a crisis to become a Christian? What's the what's an interesting question how you answer this?

He said when you know, I got friends who become Christians saying I have somebody died in the family and they become Christian, but somebody else to church at the company. We working at a broken their leg and then that recovery had become a Christian somebody else to bring in a way to Spring Harvest and I'll see if I'm honest with you had a foul mouth, but it was came out from his mouth on the regular Pisces. I walked into this is a story about Charlie and I walked into work on Monday morning about Charlie know I just woke up. I didn't even know what you're telling me. You had more than one child. It was not known by which tolly-ho Charlie Charlie decide what's happened? Is he is he? Okay what you said what I already know, but he's changed he came in this morning at half past seventy said aloud to me and he smiled. I need something strange going out to Charlie's come to the well, he's changed. I'm sorry, I'll go talk with you and see you later on in the morning is going to see Charlie and I hope you do with your face and Charlie shut the door and make sure it clicks and he said that you'll never believe it's inside what you got to tell me that it was like you'd had to turn the lights on in. So I before thee he was just writing you went well. Yeah, you might put it like that. Okay, tell me about it. And he said well.

My wife and I went to an event down in my head and I'm sitting there thinking. Okay. I know what this is. Now I ended up going to this meeting and I met with this guy called Jesus. Geico Chase's is turn my world upside down. He said everything that I have had to change so many things he said.

He said it was not work. Any we used to smoke like a chimney as well. He said I stopped smoking within within a couple of days. You just said I couldn't stand the smell. I couldn't stand it just went for me. And I went okay Charlie. That's pretty that's fantastic. I said, you know, everybody's talking about the best thing that's ever happened to me.

Is that what I see I have and she's very place to cuz he's what's the question. What's the point of you said you can see on the outside of inside so I can see that for me. So I do you have truly changed you are truly different told you to pay because you will make a difference in so many places.

Pick up Resurrection Life. He's got many things died in that those few weeks many things. He thought we had many conversations. We talked about having to July to now I see how how could he be a Salesman now, he said because I actually hate step on people across people need overwhelm people with these people by loving them. It's going to go win deals by being nice to people robbing pushing them and squeezing them on price. He said it's a new one for me. You know, what is the interesting thing? Cuz I saw a reminder to company for another eighteen months after he became a Christian not being nasty and hard and pushy with them. He close more deals in those 18 months and he had in the previous. So he was 3 years. Just don't contain just completely and yet it doesn't have to be negative. I don't know whether you've got friends besides you all could be a Christian not telling people the rules.

Not tonight because the rules are and Mike of the cervix. Love your neighbor as yourself by Seal of God now laugh out loud. That's tough enough on its own without anything else if you just want to keep that one low, which is what Jesus said keep that one Lord. That's tough enough. That's what we can do until I want to move on from the truth the Resurrection the fact that he actually happened to what does it mean to us. Unless think about some things to bring up the next flight. Let's get a hold of some things so kind.

You might have hoped for something. Maybe hug for a project to be finished. Maybe hope for a certain action too hot may be hope for something job right now before she returned killers in the world.

I once was flying back from Midland and I was lights traffic around. My lamp is terrible. I got to check in and I said you're going to have to run all the lights we count down so you got to get on the plane cuz you don't have any luggage. We willing to let you in. But if you get to the guide the play my Everlast Ali Wong the guy already that you're on your wife, but if I have to leave I have to like and I got to the gate and I got to the top of the thing and I were packing up the plane was still there. I can see it and the guy on the guy said sorry sir. It's too late. We please put clothes things down. It's not possible to check in for another flight. So when am I moving it didn't move and it didn't move 10-15 minutes later. Eventually. Somebody came up the ramp and said

I said it. Is there any chance I could get home then I said well, well, let's just see how long do I find the door shop in that moment. My my first thing was good.

If we brought Resurrection, hope we can pick up the hope that we have is I Lord create more as helping to leave for completely work. That's hoping to leave for things was hoping to leave for resurrection of now you see it in the playground at school year for 3 kids. I might be impressed the friends then something happens. Something simple have not no big deal and now they won't even talk to each other. And the reason I know this is because I come back and then go to the teacher and save a life. But now these please print play with that by spice like the last one another when I was at nursery school. So that's a long time ago. I was in a box can only hide a boxcar. I'm used to push it around the nursery rhyme the Five Guys that I was in the box game with I'm still in connection with for them. 50 + years later Some of them are between scribus old-time good friends inside your love campus washed, but it can be Resurrected. I can think of someone who I know I want to share that details but let me just say that marriage was on the rocks. America's on the Roxy a grind dry. What's the point guy has he and she was saying to me?

New on Prime on Prime so well, I don't love him anymore. That's what you feel right now. That's fine. That's okay. That's reality. I'd rather you were real with me cuz at least I can pry that's a great thing that people get real with you. That is so many people think of different story. I remember a couple I was getting alongside and somebody came up to me since I if you need to do something that's open about the sea was a couple of kids.

I said, you know what? I actually think it's okay to talk about divorce talk about it talk about it. I said because I actually like talked about it. I might both separately decided they didn't want that they want for themselves. So I thought you looked so let's work harder. I'm so impulsive situations. I just talked about love blossoms again. Love Came again. I mean the first thing is actually a child came again, but necessary recommending that but what I'm saying is love was resurrected. So don't give up final you Resurrection Life sometimes.

That would be people in the room who know people do say I've had enough. Hebrew depressed people

the first thing I want to start with these I want to pray because I'm willing to believe there's something more. I'm willing to believe this something more.

Belize in Resurrection I believe God can raise his son from the night. What counties are the sign that song Good Choice the song on you? All things are possible.

What's the thing I liked about that because it goes on and you got you get to a point where you think I should stop now, but I see I get to a point of that song everytime we do it when I get to a point. I just want to finish now and then it comes a few more time things are possible and it's pushed beyond the comfort zone.

I might believe I think sometimes we need to pushing Zagat. Sometimes we need to pricing. Sometimes we need to lay hold up. All things are possible. All things are possible.

So just be confusing. I knew I'm not going to ask you to play the video that was at the beginning of month.

As they talked about the comment being renting to the person who was doing the reading was tearing a piece of linen as I told you about.
