Easter: A Second Chance- A Time to Return to Your First Love

Revelation 2:4-Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love.

God always wants the best for us,
But in Eden we sinned; we really blew it.
We disobeyed God’s direct decree;
We separated from Him, and we knew it.
You’d think we’d learn to behave ourselves,


But through all time, we just kept doing it;
Piling wrong on top of wrong,
Our punishment—we kept accruing it.
Jesus came and changed all that;
He paid the price for all our sins;
When we repent and believe in Him,
We change, and a better life begins.
Easter stands for a second chance

For us to choose to put things right;

Easter stands for eternal life
Without Easter,
there would be no hope of heaven.
Without the hope of heaven,
there would be no repentance,
no personal transformation,
no attempt to follow biblical principles.
Without Easter,
the world would be in chaos
and darkness.
Jesus’ death and resurrection
means we can be reborn,
to live better, to do better,
to shine light into the shadows.

If we repent, and really believe,
Our record is polished clean and bright.
When Jesus rose from the dead back then,
He guaranteed our eternal life,
Reunited with God in heaven,
Free from tears and fears and strife.
Easter ensures paradise
For all of us, for you and me;
We’re reconciled to our Lord and King
For now and all eternity.

Hallelujah!
Happy, Happy Easter.

We Live and die, but Christ died and Lived ! He is the Resurrection and the Life- John 11:25.

Revelation 3:20-Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
