Easter is one of the most ancient Christian pageant celebrating the
resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.
In the beginning in the first Christian congregations they remembered it on
every Sunday proclaiming the Good News: Jesus Christ is risen !
They did it, because the fact of the resurrection was and it is the very
central cornerstone of the Christian message as it is written by Apostle
Paul: „ ... if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your
faith is in vain. ” (1Cor.15:14)
„ But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who
have fallen asleep.” (1Cor.15:20) By the resurrection of Jesus Christ God
fullfilled all of the promises said by God’s prophets:
The Saviour has come, the lamb of God, who has been sacrificed for the
sins of world. He was crucified on the account of the human sins, he was
buried, and resurrected on the third day from the dead to proclaim the wonderful
gift of God which is mightier than death: the forgiveness.
A profound change must occur in the human heart too. In soul we have to die
with Christ for the sin, and by the power of the resurrection of the Lord, we have
to be born again in faith, hope and love.
The world, stumbling in darkness, needs Jesus Christ to be healed from its
sicknesses, selfishness, enmities, wars and idolatries to renew for the Glory of
God, for the joy of the heavenly angels and for the happiness of humans.
We have to pray and act to become worthy enough for God’s grace.
W e have to pray for strength, providence, guidance of the Soul of
God; we have to act that God’s will, truth, justice, care and providing love
may become obviously present among us.
The Lord may be blessed for ever !
Blessed Easter for Everyone !
