A Note from Pastor Brett
This is the most significant week in the church calendar. I know it’s a significant time for many of you as it is for me. It’s hard to describe in a small note like this how important the crucifixion and the resurrection are to the Christian life, and to the church. To think that Jesus would come, willingly, ably to Jerusalem to die. That he would take the punishment of my sin upon himself so that I, that you could be free of sin and found righteous in him. It’s a little overwhelming honestly to think of a love like that. Think about that, that is how much you are loved. That Christ would die for you, he would take the price that you should have paid. The resurrection itself is an incredible thing to ponder. Think about it for a second, actually take a second. Christ died, and then he was alive. He wasn’t a spirit, or a ghost, Thomas actually touched his nail scared hands. Imagine what it would have been like to witness that, the joy, the miraculous, the reverence. The resurrection changes everything for the believer because the spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwells in us. Jesus’ resurrection shows his authority over death and the dominion of sin. He is declaring “no more” that his people are no longer slaves they are free. In this freedom, out of this sacrifice we who put our trust in him have a new hope, and new home and a new purpose! This Friday and Sunday Mat Reed will lead us in worship and Pastor Brett will speak. Good Friday we will look at what Christ endured so that we could be free from sin, we will see this story and have an opportunity to respond to it. Easter Sunday we will look at Romans 8:1-17 and the new life we have in the spirit. A new life that is only possible in the resurrection of Jesus. We hope that you plan to attend and we are looking forward to worshipping with you. |
