Message From Our Pastor
On the first Easter morning the ladies who visited to tomb of Jesus were surprised that it was empty, they were shocked actually and thought He had been taken away. They desperately wanted to know where He was so they could tenderly take care of His body according to their custom.
Now, we all look into the tomb, seeing the same emptiness, but we are not surprised for we know the story of the resurrection-the same story they found out soon after they looked in.
I’d like to share with you this fact, that is, if you want to know where Jesus is, if you desire like those sweet ladies did to know where He is; please know and believe He is ever present and right with you when you call His name. Looking into the scriptures we find the Easter message and the truth that He arose! The ladies had brought what they needed to care for His body, but He arose! His resurrection was indeed a physical resurrection, the greatest miracle of all miracles for without the resurrection our hope is in vain.
Continuing to read through the Word, we discover the church to be the body of Christ. The women desired to care for His body on that first Easter, and Jesus desires we care for His body-the church still today.
Praise God for the resurrection, for Easter, and for the body of Christ!!!
Love y’all,
Preacher Craig
