But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared.
And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel.
And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them,
“Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has RISEN. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.”
And they remembered his words, and returning from the tomb they told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.
-Luke 24:1-9 ESV
This, my friends, is the most magnificent of true stories. Today marks the climax in the great story ever told. What a hero Jesus was, as a man. Fully God he could be perfect, but fully man he must endure every trial as a man.
What he must have felt as he died! the crushing burden of every sin ever in history. What he must have felt when he rose! the completion of the greatest task, the victory of the greatest battle. Death is defeated! Its sting can no longer hurt those who belong to Him.
What an honour to follow him! An honour I have done nothing to deserve.
Jesus is the king of Heaven. Yet he came to this lowly earth to serve and save us, treacherous humans.
And how do I repay him? I don’t show it on here, but I’m short-tempered, often exploding at my siblings when they’ve done nothing to deserve it. Moodiness, anger, lying, cowardice, every time I sin that is one more sin my King had to bear. Yet he loves me still.
Because of this, what can I do but follow him to my utmost? Would I not be the smallest, meanest, most ungrateful pig that ever roamed this earth if I did not offer everything I have to the King who gave me everything? I don’t know about you, but I could not live with myself.
Sure, life is hard. I know plenty about that right now. But he has given me hope. He is doing his utmost to bless me, to love me. He has promised that all I need give him is myself.
At the camp I went to a couple of months ago, my leader asked us, “When you get to Heaven’s Gate, and God asks you ‘Why should I let you in?’ what would you say?”
Just something to think about.
For Christ Alone!

too true!
on an off-topic note, my dad made an amazing joke the other day, talking about how kindergardeners always talk about how "My dad could beat up your dad!"
one kid says "my dad could beat up your dad, he's a fireman!"
another says "no, my dad could win in a fight against your dad! he's an army man!"
then the last one says "my dad is a pastor, he can send your dads to he||."
*chuckles* good joke...

@WhyMCA well, it's complicated.
if I told you, then 40% of the users on here would be on my back, trying to shove their specific take on christianity, not acknowledging or thinking baout anything logical I say, retaining only what I say that agrees with them.
so...
I'll leave your question at a solid "kind of." but if you need a yes or a no, I'll say it's closest to "Yes."
yep.

LM - That was just a random figure I was guessing as an example. I don’t keep track of the Mecabricks stats, obviously… *hides clipboard cataloging all users*
Anyway, it’s cool that so many users are Christians.
Justy - I don’t think, (hopefully) that anyone would criticize your worldview… Unless you’re a flat earther. THEN, you’d be in for some pain.

Sorry this is late, but that may be just about the most honesty and beautiful thing I've ever seen you write. The truth of it is astounding... we can't understand how great of a salvation we've been given, because we can't understand how great of a God we've sinned against! I have discovered though, that the more I try to draw closer to God, and the more I try to love him, the more I see how hard it is to do just that... which leads me to realize how much I do sin, and how forgiving God has to be.
Anyways, speaking of the resurrection, I'll quote Andrew Peterson who wrote, "All the chains of death could never hope to hold him, so in the night my hope lives on."
We have, as the Bible says, a [b]living[/b hope. He's alive! And because he lives, we can have life, and have it abundantly.

@everyone, Thank you!
@Greeny, Thank you. I find that every Easter I try to comprehend, and I just can't. It just makes me realise more how much he has to love us to do all that for people who will never be able to fully appreciate just how much he did.
