Christ Is Risen

Christ Is RisenLet no one caught in sin remainInside the lie of inward shameBut fix our eyes upon the cross

And run to Him who showed great loveAnd bled for us

Freely You've bled for us

Christ is risen from the deadTrampling over death by death

Come awake, come awakeCome and rise up from the grave

Christ is risen from the deadWe are one with Him againCome awake, come awake

Come and rise up from the grave

Beneath the weight of all our sinYou bowed to none but heaven's willNo scheme of hell no scoffer's crownNo burden great can hold You down

In strength You reignForever let Your church proclaim





O death, where is your sting?O hell, where is your victory?

O church, come stand in the lightThe glory of God has defeated the night

O death, where is your sting?O hell, where is your victory?

O church, come stand in the lightOur God is not deadHe's alive! He's alive!

Jesus Paid It All

And I hear the Savior say,Thy strength indeed is small

Child of weakness, watch and pray,Find in Me thine all in all

Jesus paid it allAll to Him I owe

Sin had left a crimson stainHe washed it white as snow

Lord, now indeed I findThy power and Thine alone

Can change the leper's spotsAnd melt the heart of stone


Sin had left a crimson stainHe washed it white as snow

Lord when before the throneI stand in Him complete,

Jesus died my soul to saveMy lips shall still repeat


Sin had left a crimson stainHe washed it white as snowHe washed it white as snowHe washed it white as snow

Oh, praise the One who paid my debt,And raised this life up from the dead

(repeat)

Oh, praise the One who paid my debt,And raised this life up from the dead

Jesus, JesusJesus, Jesus

…then our PREACHING is in vain…then our FAITH is in vain…then we are LIARS…then we are still in our SINS…then the DEAD are HOPELESS…then WE are HOPELESS

No Resurrection = No Hope

“Take a look at the vacated tomb. Did you know the opponents of Christ never challenged its vacancy? No Pharisee or Roman Soldier ever led a contingent back to the burial site and declared, “The angel was wrong, the body is here, it was all a rumor. They would have if they could have.

Within weeks disciples occupied every Jerusalem street corner announcing a risen Christ. What quicker way for the enemies of the church to shut them up than to produce a cold and lifeless body? Display the cadaver, and Christianity is stillborn; but they had no cadaver to display.

Helps explain the Jerusalem revival. When the apostles argued for the empty tomb, the people looked to the Pharisees for a rebuttal, but they had none to give. As A.M. Fairbairn put it long ago, “the silence of the Jews is as eloquent as the speech of the Christians!”

But if the

RESURRECTION

happened…

If Christ is RESURRECTED…

then HIS CLAIMS are TRUE

When they came together in Galilee, he said to them, "The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the

hands of men. They will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised to life."

Matthew 17:22-23

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life;

no one comes to the Father but through Me.

John 14:6

Jesus Christ to me was an incredibly special person, like a modern-day guru of sorts. He was a carpenter’s son and a rabbi, a leader of his people. Very decent, benevolent man, which is why I think he gets a lot of idiots speaking on his behalf.

We (Jewish people) think Christ was a very special person. But Lord? Just not sure. But I’m the first one to say, “Look, I’m open to anything.” If somebody wants to be smart while they’re on this Earth, they should pray to Buddha, Islam, Muhammad,

They should pray to Jesus, pray to Moses, cover all your bases. So when you go to heaven, somebody you prayed to is going to be there.

- Sul Cohen

I was baptized and had my first communion, and I believe in God in my own ways. But the philosophy I most identify with is Buddhism because it’s the one that doesn’t say, “This is the only way.” I don’t want to put a title on what I believe. -Penelope Cruz

I don’t believe Jesus is the only way to God. I don’t believe he rose from the dead as scientific fact. I don’t know whether those things happened. It’s an irrelevant question.-Bill PhippsPastor, United Church of Christ, Canada

If Christ is RESURRECTED…

then HE is PREEMINENT

…which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.

Ephesians 1:20-21

If Christ is RESURRECTED… then we can be FORGIVEN

of our SINS

When you were dead in your transgressionand the un-circumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions,having canceled out the certificate of debtconsisting of decrees against us, which washostile to us;

Colossians 2:13-15

and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. When He haddisarmed the rulers and authorities,He made a public display of them,having triumphed over them through Him.

Colossians 2:13-15

If Christ is RESURRECTED… then DEATH is CONQUERED

and we need not to FEAR it

But God raised Him up again, putting an end to the agony of death,

since it was impossible for Him to be held in its power.

Acts 2:24

This Jesus God raised up again, to which we are all witnesses.

Acts 2:32
