Today is Resurrection Sunday

Almost 2000 years ago, The Lord God Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the required death penalty for my (and everyone’s) sins. 

Three days and nights passed while he was in the grave.

But then, HE AROSE from the dead !!!

He was Resurrected to new life!!! 

And because He arose, we, too, can live with Him forever 
IF 
we confess and turn from our sins 
and 
accept the free gift of His substitute death as payment for our sins.


Jesus explained this amazing transaction to Nicodemus in these words:

John 3:14-18...  
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, 
even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, 
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 
but have everlasting life. 
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; 
but that the world through him might be saved. 
He that believeth on him is not condemned: 
but he that believeth not is condemned already, 
because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. ...

What is my response to this? 

Well, Robert Shaw, the Chamber Singers, and the Atlanta Symphony orchestra express my response in this 3 minutes 28 seconds video.   HERE’S THE LINK.
