He has risen, He is coming!

As we celebrate the Easter holiday and the rest of the world goes to church for the only time this year, we need to stop and think about what we are doing. Why does everyone go to church on Easter Sunday but not the rest of the year, save Christmas? We need to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus every Sunday, not just once a year. Jesus died for our sins and his blood washed our sins away. We can be saved and go to heaven because of the sacrifice that Jesus has made for us. What do we need to do? We need to first hear the word of God (John 6:45,  Rom. 10:17, Rev. 1:3), we also must believe what we hear (Heb. 11:6, Mark 16:16, Jn 5:24, Jn 6:29, Jn 8:24), we must then repent of our sins (2 Cor. 7:10, Luke 15:7, Acts 2:38, Acts 3:19), we must then confess that Jesus is the son of God (Matt. 10:32-33, Rom. 10:9-10), we must be baptized for the remission of our sins (Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38, 1 Peter 3:21-22), and finally, we must be faithful until death (Rev. 2:10, Matt. 10:22, Matt. 24:13) Please consider all of these things and read your Bible for yourself. Have a great weekend and Happy Easter!!

 My family and I went to the Opryland Hotel in Nashville for Easter. We attended a convention called Lads to Leaders. This convention helps build strong christian children by helping them learn to lead songs, give speeches, etc.. It was a lot of fun. My daughter led the song Jesus loves the little children for the ladies. Here is a picture of us after morning worship service with around 8,000 fellow christians.
