The Resurrection

What historical event fascinates you the most?
The Resurrection of Jesus is the event that most fascinates me. It fascinated me so much that it changed my life back in 1989.
Up until that point I had a basic understanding that Jesus died on the cross on Good Friday and then He rose to life on Easter Sunday.
But in all honesty I did not know why He died? When a friend gave me a tract that explained Jesus died on the cross for my sin, it started to make sense.
I realised I was a sinner and I needed God’s forgiveness and Jesus’ death on the cross made that possible. I could be forgiven because He paid the price for my sin.
The resurrection showed that Jesus had the power over death and that God was satisfied with His sacrifice for us. It also showed that we will be resurrected one day too.
This truth changed my life and gave me a new purpose – to live for Him. In a sense I was dead in my sins and then I was raised to a new life with Jesus.
I believe the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus are the most significant events in human history. I believe that if you want true life now it all begins with Jesus.
Today I would encourage you to visit my peace with God page so you can begin afresh with Jesus. You can find it here.
God Bless,
