Untitled Sermon (10)

HE’S ALIVE

INTRODUCTION

JESUS LIFE BEFORE RESURRECTION WAS FULL OF ACCUSATIONS, ADVERSITY AND REJECTIONS, BUT IN THE MIDST OF ALL THIS HE WAS ABLE TO OVERCOME IT.

THE DEATH OF JESUS WAS NO PRETTY SIGHT. ISAIAH SAID WHEN WE SHALL SEE HIM, THERE IS NO BEAUTY THAT WE SHOULD DESIRE HIM.

WHEN WE THINK ABOUT THE MAGNITUDE OF SUFFERING JESUS HAD TO GO THROUGH FOR OUR SINS, OUR HEARTS SHOULD BE OVERWHELM WITHIN, BECAUSE WE COULD NOT BE EVERYTHING FOR HIM THAT HE WAS FOR US.

CALVARY IS A REMINDER OF THE AWFULNESS OF HUMAN SIN . WHEN WE LOOK AT THE AWFULNESS OF HUMAN SIN, CALVARY SHOWS US THAT SIN HAS NO LIMITS TO WHAT AFFECT IT WOULD HAVE ON A HUMAN LIFE.

WHO CAN IMAGINE SOMEONE IN THE HUMAN FLESH BEAT SOMEONE TO THE POINT WHERE THEY CANNOT RECOGNIZE THEM ANYMORE. THIS HAPPEN TO JESUS.

THE DEATH OF JESUS WAS NO ORDINARY DEATH, ISAIAH 53:5 SAID HE WAS WOUNDED FOR OUR TRANSGRESSIONS, HE WAS BRUISED FOR OUR INIQUITIES: THE CHASTISEMENT OF OUR PEACE WAS UPON HIM; AND WITH HIS STRIPES WE ARE HEALED.

JESUS TOOK THE STING OUT OF DEATH WITH HIS VICTORY ON THE CROSS.

THEN JESUS WAS BURIED FOR OUR SINS, MEANING SIN WAS DONE AWAY WITH. SIN IS MEANT TO STAY DEAD, GOD DO NOT EXPECT US TO DIG BACK UP OUR OLD LIVES AND CONTINUE TO LIVE IN IT. BUT HE EXPECT US TO ENJOY THE NEW LIFE , WHICH JESUS CHRIST HAS GIVEN US THROUGH HIS BLOOD ON THE CROSS.

THE BURIAL TODAY IS OUR FUTURE HOPE FOR JESUS SECOND COMING TO US WHO BELIEVE.

ROMANS 6: 4 THEREFORE WE ARE BURIED WITH HIM BY BAPTISM INTO DEATH: THAT LIKE AS CHRIST WAS RAISED UP FROM THE DEAD BY THE GLORY OF THE FATHER, EVEN SO WE ALSO SHOULD WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE.

THEN JESUS OUR LORD HE GOT UP OUT OF THE GRAVE WITH ALL POWER IN HIS HANDS. THE GRAVE COULD NOT HOLD HIM, BECAUSE HE FORETOLD HIS DISCIPLES THAT HE WOULD BE CRUCIFIED AND THEN IN THREE DAYS HE WOULD GET BACK UP.

THANK JESUS THAT HE ROSE OUT OF THAT GRAVE, AND BECAUSE OF THIS A PART OF HIM LIVES IN US, THE HOLY SPIRIT. HE’S ALIVE BECAUSE HE LIVES HIS LIFE THROUGH US.,

LUKE 24:46- AND SAID UNTO THEM, THUS IT IS WRITTEN, AND THUS IT BEHOOVED CHRIST TO SUFFER, AND TO RISE FROM THE DEAD THE THIRD DAY:

WHAT JESUS CHRIST RESURRECTION MEANS TO EVERY BELIEVER IS WE DO NOT HAVE TO EXPERIENCE THE SECOND DEATH. BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR US ONCE AND FOR ALL, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVE IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.

TODAY DO JESUS CHRIST LIVE IN YOU? DO THE LORD JESUS HAVE YOUR HEART , HAVE YOU CONFESSED YOUR SINS TO THE LORD JESUS. IF NOT THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY ON RESURRECTION SUNDAY TO RISE UP OUT OF WHERE YOU AT AND EXPERIENCE A NEW LIFE IN LORD JESUS CHRIST.
