The Twelve Voices of Easter:
Back to the Bible's Internet presentation of The Twelve Voices of Easter.
Need Real™ Audio!
PASSOVER: - Jews For Jesus - Passover plate with all the descriptions
and meaning to us and looking forward to the Sacrificial Lamb.
The Crucifixion Of
Jesus: BIBLE.CA - The shadow of the cross that was raised on
Golgotha reaches across the centuries to offer comfort, forgiveness, and hope to
us today. The story is almost unbelievable, for it is hard for us to image such
love.
A Physician Analyzes
the Crucifixion: - By Dr. C. Truman Davis - A medical explanation of
what Jesus endured on the day He died.
The Cross of Jesus Christ:
- By John Christopher Rogers - "Just as man is destined to die once and
after that to face the judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the
sins of many people; and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to
bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him." During His life, He loved and
taught and mended broken lives. Then He was nailed to a cross - the most brutal
method of execution known in His day. But His death brought life to those who
believed in Him.
The
Resurrection Message of Jesus Christ: By P. G. Mathew, M.A., M.Div., Th.M.
- The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the very heart of Christianity.
In 1 Corinthians 15 St. Paul reasoned, "If Christ has not been raised, our
preaching is useless and so is your faith. . . .We are then found to be false
witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from
the dead." In that same chapter he says "If Christ has not been raised, your
faith is futile; you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen
sleep in Christ are lost. If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are
to be pitied more than all men." But then Paul triumphantly declares, "But
Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have
fallen asleep" (1 Cor. 15:14-20).
The Resurrection Of Jesus
Christ: By Louis Bartet / Point Assembly of God - "It wasn't the
morality of the Sermon on the Mount which enabled Christianity to conquer Roman
Paganism, but the belief that Jesus had been raised from the dead. In an age
when Roman senators vied to see who cold get the most blood of a steer on their
togas--thinking that would prevent death--Christianity was in competition for
eternal life, not morality."
The Resurrection Of Jesus:
From the pages of Christian Answers a well prepared page and links to our
Saviors Resurrection and the Empty Tomb.
God's Plan of
Salvation: Chick.Com - The Bible says there is only one way to
Heaven. Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto
the Father but by me." (John 14:6) Good works cannot save you. "For by grace are
ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not
of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Are You Good Enough
To Go To Heaven?: By Ray Comfort / Mercy Seat Christian Church - Of
all the questions you will ask yourself in life, probably the most important is,
Am I good enough to go to Heaven? The way to find this out is to ask yourself if
you have obeyed the Ten Commandments. Most would answer the question, 'Well,
I've broken one or two, but nothing too serious, like murder, etc.' So let's go
through them and see how you do.
Save Yourself Some
Pain: By Ray Comfort - If there was something you could do to live
forever, would you look into it? Who in his right mind wouldn't? There is
something you can do. Please, give this a few minutes serious investigation--you
have nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
Facts About Easter
Celebrations: Entourages.Com - Easter is the festival celebrating the
resurrection of Christ, observed in the Christian churches today. By the first
Christian, it was considered to continue the feast of the Passover, at which the
paschal lamb, a symbol of Christ, was sacrificed. Hence, its name in Greek,
French, and other Roman languages is taken from Hebrew "Pesach" = Passover. The
English name comes from the Anglo-Saxon "Eastre" - a goddess of light or spring,
whose festival was celebrated in April.
