Music Drama by the children:  He came, He Lived, He Died, but that was the End of the Beginning…

  • His death wasn’t’ the End, but the Beginning of Life that’s completed in YOU!  
  • He did all this for YOU!

 

The Roar of Spiritual Battle

  • John 10:10 “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”
  • Romans 8:11 If the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead is living in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken (make alive) your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.”

 

A NEW Creation in Christ

  • II Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”

 

Believe and be Saved

  • John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he have his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (17) For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”
  • John 11:25 “I am the resurrection and the life.  He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; (26) and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.  Do you believe this?
