Glorious Resurrection Sunday!

Acts 2:22-24, “Men of Israel, hear these words:

Jesus of Nazareth,

a Man attested by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs 

which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know – 

Him, being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God, 

you have taken by lawless hands, have crucified, and put to death; 

whom God raised up, having loosed the pains of death, 

because it was not possible that He should be held by it. 

I Corinthians 15:54-55,

“Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

“Where, O death, is your victory?”

“Where, O death, is your sting?”

I Peter 1:3-5,

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! 

In His great mercy He has given us new birth 

into a living hope 

through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. 

This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, 

who through faith are shielded by God’s power 

until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.

HALLELUJAH!!  

Up from the Grave He Arose – Robert Lowry, 1874

Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o’er His foes,
He arose a Victor from the dark domain,
And He lives forever,
With His saints to reign.
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose!

Death cannot keep its Prey, Jesus my Savior;
He tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord.

Hallelujah!  Christ arose!
