Family Question: Starting with the youngest give one thing that Easter means to you. 2. Look at Matthew 28 and John 20, the two accounts used Sunday to tell of the resurrection. 3. What stands out to you in these passages? 4. What do you not quite understand? 5. What would you put on a banner and fly behind a plane if you could? Can you? 6. Now try to put yourself in the shoes of someone who is just learning about Jesus and answer the most important question we can ask in studying the Bible, “so what?” 7. We saw 5 people baptized on Sunday, what did that mean to you personally? 8. If we are still in the “shoes” mentioned in question #6, what would follow if we started with, Belief, Baptism and…? 9. Take time and offer thanks to God for Easter, Belief, Baptism and… Pastor in Print April 5, 2015 “Fire!” “Look out!” “You’re a winner!” What can a person possibly say that would catch the attention of the people around you. Another line would be “HE HAS RISEN!” To most of us gathered here today that will mean something. It can be the most important information we will ever receive if we hold that to be true. In Romans 10 the Apostle Paul tells us “That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved”. Actually saved from sin, because of what Jesus did for us on the cross and then in believing by faith we receive forgiveness. It requires us to confess with our mouth and believe in our hearts. Those two parts of the body came up this week at a baptism training class. It’s one thing to mouth the words that your brain understands, but so much more to say you actually believe deep down in your heart of hearts. We are going to witness at least 5 people be baptized today. I say “at least” because at our last baptismal service I gave an opportunity for people to be baptized on the spot and two came forward and said, “yes!” As a pastor I am well aware that “attention” and “information” are important. This is the most important day on our calendar, bar none, because Christianity stands or falls based on whether or not Jesus rose from the dead. Do you realize this is why we say this is 2015? 2015 A.D. actually stands for “Anno Domini” which in Latin means, “in the year of our Lord”. History itself was so affected by Jesus that we have been counting the years ever since. But why should you care? The Bible tells us that we are designed to be eternal. Where we spend eternity depends on what we do with Jesus who died, and rose again, to take our place for the things we do in life naturally and by choice that separate us from God. The Bible uses the term “Sin”. But it is not just a matter of correcting sin, but rather the joy of actually having a relationship with God Himself from this day forward by believing in Him. “Fire!” Now that I have your attention…consider what God offers you right here, right now!
