Jesus is alive!!! :D

The Lord Jesus Christ is alive!!! That is the greatest news that has ever been spoken! People in the book of Acts couldn't wait to go and tell numerous strangers about this risen Savior who has rose from the dead and defeated death. Stephen, Peter, Paul, Andrew had to tell someone that Christ was alive. Jesus said to his disciples "Don't tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead." Matthew 17:9. The Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ is the best piece of evidence for our faith in the Lord. If Jesus predicted how He would die and did not fulfill it, then we have been lied to and our faith is literally useless. Just as Paul had said in 1 Corinthians 15:14 "And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith." Paul even takes it further saying that if Christ has not been raised, we are still in our sins 1 Corinthians 15:17. But Jesus has rose from the dead and here is the evidence. This is from Luke 24:36-49 when Jesus appears to His disciples. "While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you." They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have." When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?" They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate it in their presence. He said to them, "This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms." Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. He told them, "This is what is written: Th Christ, will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things. I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high." The Lord Jesus Christ the only God, has been raised from the dead!!! No other person or "god" could do that. Only Jesus could and He did! He is the Savior of the world. If you have not repented of your sins. Please repent of them and believe upon the Lord Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Turn away from doing evil and believe in Jesus so you can follow righteousness! Amen!!! If you have repented of your sins and have become "born again" by believing in the Lord Jesus Christ please comment on this blog below. And praise the Lord!!!
