This Easter Sunday Josiah takes us through the Gospel message and reminds us of the power of our risen King Jesus!
In this message we take a look a the resurrection in Matthew chapter 28 and the Gospel message in 1 Corinthians 15.
The power of the Resurrection Means
1. That we have faith in our salvation!
Without the fact that Jesus died and rose again for our sins our faith is futile!
This is fundamental to our faith, that as Jesus died on the cross so we die to our old life and as He rose again so we rise again with a new life as new creations!
If He didn't rise again we would still be in our sin, but because He went to the cross we get to be free from our sin!
If you want to be free from your sin you need to believe the truth of the cross!
2. That we worship from the joy of our salvation!
When we belief and receive the truth of the cross we fully saved and the joy of our salvation pulls us into worship and praise!
3. That we are in a battle to believe the truth of our salvation and lead others to belief!
His resurrection also means there is a battle for the Gospel message to go forth and be received!
This is the battle to believe the truth of the cross, that Jesus really rose and that our testimonies are also true!
4. Means Life, Redemption and Restoration for all who belief
Peter is so relatable that he was so vibrant in his faith yet failed many times, and still Jesus redeems and calls him.
5. Means Mission and Discipleship
Jesus has given us all authority to heal, baptise and lead others to Him.
6. Means that we have a glorious Hope
We've got to belief that His resurrection means a glorious future after this life.
7.. Means that we have eternal life
Eternal life is knowing Jesus, its having a relationship with Him
In right relationship with Him, intimately knowing Him!
Inviting Him into our life..
The joy that was set before Jesus, was that you and I would have deep relationship with Him!
