Happy Easter 2020!

To my readers, happy Easter! He is Risen! The difficulties facing America today are nothing compared to the joy and significance of the resurrection of King Jesus, the living Christ, the ruler of the world and the only potentate, without who’s approval no king moves or decrees (Isaiah 46:10). It was always intended by God to be, still is today, and always will be in the future, the most significant event in history, despite the juvenile attempts to rid the study of history of the terms B.C. and A.D.

I am He that liveth.
“I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.” – Revelation 1:18
This is the resurrected Christ of God, Jesus speaking. He has the keys of death and no man appoints the time of death, though all men are appointed once to die, after that they are judged.
There is nothing to fear if you believe on Jesus. No man, no government, no microbe can take your life in this world except it be of an appointment with Christ. I question, only the Lord and they know, the salvation of people who claim Jesus as redeemer and then remain in fear.
“And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which 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 that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you. And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word. And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him. Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.” – Matthew 28:5-10
Even though we will one day die, and that time draws ever nearer, we are in no way to fear evil, wrath, death, and hell, for the LORD is with us in goodness and mercy. Jesus is risen, the Kingdom is His to command, be of good cheer, seek His face, and do His bidding.
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6
“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” 1 Timothy 2:5-6
Jesus is the way, the only way to get to God, and He has made this way by dying on the cross to save your soul, having paid your ransom, the sin debt that you owe to Holy God, and being risen from the dead He has defeated death, once for all, if that you would only believe.
“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:” – John 1:12
“He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.” – John 3:33
If you receive the Lord Jesus, He offers power to become a son of God, even if you believe on His name. His testimony is true, and He will signify it upon your seal, being kept by the power of God unto the day of redemption, God is true to His word, He is the God that cannot lie, He will come in and sup with you if you receive Him.
The only fear we should have is that of the fear of God, being full of great joy. He is risen indeed. Amen and amen. Amen.
May the Lord bless you this Easter, and unto eternity, Mr. Smith.

He is risen! That God is still in control gives me peace in this perilous times. We seem to be seeing Revelations playing out before our eyes. If these be end times all I can say is “Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!”

Happy Resurrection Day to all. Just remember, if the tomb is empty, anything is possible!
