Nevertheless among the chief rulers

but because of the Pharisees they
did not confess him, lest they should
be put out of the synagogue:
For they loved the praise of men
more than the praise of God.

John 5:18-20 (KJV)
Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him,
because he not only had broken the sabbath,
but said also that God was his Father,
making himself equal with God.
Then answered Jesus and said unto them,
Verily, verily, I say unto you,
The Son can do nothing of himself,
but what he seeth the Father do:
for what things soever he doeth,
these also doeth the Son likewise.
For the Father loveth the Son,
and sheweth him all things that
himself doeth: and he will shew him
greater works than these, that ye may marvel.

John 19:12-18 (KJV)
And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him:
but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go,
thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself
a king speaketh against Caesar.
When Pilate therefore heard that saying,
he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the
judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement,
but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.
And it was the preparation of the passover,
and about the sixth hour: and he saith
unto the Jews, Behold your King!
But they cried out, Away with him, away with him,
crucify him. Pilate saith unto them,
Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered,
We have no king but Caesar.
Then delivered he him therefore unto them
to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
And he bearing his cross went forth into
a place called the place of a skull,
which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:
Where they crucified him, and two other
with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

Luke 24:1-12 (KJV)
Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning,
they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices
which they had prepared, and certain others with them.
And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed
thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth,
they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake
unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the
hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
And they remembered his words,
And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these
things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary
the mother of James, and other women that were with them,
which told these things unto the apostles.
And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre;
and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid
by themselves, and departed, wondering in
himself at that which was come to pass.

And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in
the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
But they were terrified and affrighted,
and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled?
and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself:
handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not
flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
And when he had thus spoken, he shewed
them his hands and his feet.
And while they yet believed not for joy,
and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish,
and of an honeycomb.
And he took it, and did eat before them.
And he said unto them, These are the words
which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you,
that all things must be fulfilled,
which were written in the law of Moses,
and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
Then opened he their understanding,
that they might understand the scriptures,
And said unto them, Thus it is written,
and thus it behooved Christ to suffer,
and to rise from the dead the third day:
And that repentance and remission of sins
should be preached in his name among all nations,
beginning at Jerusalem.
And ye are witnesses of these things.
And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you:
but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem,
until ye be endued with power from on high.

The Easter Promise
The Easter message is bold
and
clear
for all who are willing to lend an ear.
He came to establish the reason why
mankind may no longer have to die.
He died - then rose to life again
for Son of God is how He came.
And to do such deeds no other can
proves Him more than mortal man.
He promised followers, every one,
they would not die but follow Him
to eternal life, in a heavenly land
as at beginning God has planned.
And, given His death and resurrection,
of His promise there can be no question.
A promise of life beyond the earth
must come from One surviving death.
From any other the promise is vain,
false prophets fail, they are but men.
And in this world there is no gain
being misled by any one of them.
Follow Christ if life you prize.
This is the choice of the wise.
Deny Him and then ask why
you set yourself prepared to die.
Life is hard but Christians cope
because with Christ they live in HOPE.
for all who are willing to lend an ear.

Because He Lives
He came to love, To heal and forgive.
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove my Jesus lives.
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone!
Because I know He holds the future
My life is worth the living, just because He lives!
And then one day, I'll cross that river,
I'll fight life's final war, life's final war with pain.
And then as death gives way to victory,
I'll see the lights of glory and
I'll know my Jesus lives.
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone!
Because I know He holds the future
My life is worth the living, just because He lives!
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone!
Because I know He holds the future
My life is worth the living, just because He lives!
My life is worth the living,
just because He lives!
