Alert: Christians Return Jesus to Tomb

 Did you return Jesus to the tomb after attending Easter Sunday’s Resurrection Service? 

The “Christian” religions of the world celebrated the empty tomb and their risen Savior, Jesus Christ, this past Easter weekend.  Overflow crowds were in attendance at my local church as I suspect they were in places of worship around the world.   

Can you imagine what the world would be like if standing room only crowds were in attendance at every church service?  “Talk about there being a chance for peace on earth” would be in the realm of possibility.   Of course, all Biblical Christians know true peace on earth will not be possible until Christ’s 2nd coming. 

As we start a new week, have you returned Jesus to the empty tomb where you will keep Him until you resurrect Him again next Easter? Most Christians in name only have.  

Those who returned Jesus to the tomb might as well be worshiping a tree or worshiping the god of a “jihadist” in hope of meeting a harem of virgins at their death.  There is about as much of a chance, an improbability in actuality, of an afterlife in the heaven Jesus promised in any scenario without Jesus as your Savior. 

No matter what the circumstance of your Easter service attendance, if you felt the call to surrender your life to Jesus Christ and you did, Congratulations!  You have just made the most important decision of a lifetime.  Allow the Holy Spirit to transform your life and never return Jesus to the empty tomb again.  

As the old church hymn, “He Lives,” often moves my heart, I recite in my mind the first line and chorus as a testimony to my risen Savior, and I pray that you too may find Jesus and make Him the Lord of your life.  Wikipedia the hymn and listen to the words; hopefully, they will speak to you and your life will be transformed. 

“Have a blessed and peaceful journey as you let Christ reign in your heart,” is my prayer for you.
