Happy Easter
Most people make Christmas the most important occasion of
the year. They prepare many weeks beforehand to organize to celebrate
Christmas. But is Christmas, the birth of Jesus Christ, actually the most
important occasion based on what is written in the Bible? It is nowhere
recorded in the Bible that we actually have to celebrate Christmas. Although it
is not wrong to remember and celebrate Jesus’ birth. What is most important for
us to remember and observe is rather the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus
Christ. As Jesus Himself clearly stated in the Bible,
KJV Luke 22:19, And He
took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is
my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. Jesus
‘ whole time on earth about 2000 years ago was clearly to save mankind from
sin, by sacrificing His own life on the cross and being raised from the dead
after 3 days and 3 nights. To me this is the most important occasion to
celebrate every year. I wish you all a happy resurrection- (easter)-time. God
bless you.
