What Is Easter About?
What Is Easter About?
So if you're Christian, you know that Easter Sunday is one of the most religious holidays we have. This is the day that Jesus was reborn, that he rose from the dead and came back to give us one final message.
So what was his message that he came back to tell us and what was his message he was trying to teach us?
One of the biggest things he taught was about love.
"Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another" (John 13:34).
In the New Living Translation (NLT): it says he spoke of love approximately 645–801 times. That's a lot of love he wanted us to learn.
Jesus also preached restoration. He offered repentance and forgiveness to the broken, the outcast, and those "living crooked".
He threw over tables of those using his name and not doing what he taught.
He taught us mercy. He emphasized mercy over judgment. He who has no sin cast the first stone.
He taught us to feed the hungry, to take in the immigrants, and to help the poor.
In Matthew 25: "I was hungry and you gave me food... I was a stranger and you welcomed me".
In Leviticus 19:33-34: Commands treating the foreigner (immigrant) as native-born and loving them as oneself.
And in Isaiah 58:7: Encourages sharing food with the hungry and providing shelter for the homeless.
In his last message he came back to tell us was to go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation (Mark 16:15).
His message was simply,
Love one another, treat others like you would have treated him. Help others, be kind, have no judgment and pass this on to as many people as you can. Simple. Yet we cannot do this, especially in today's time.
The internet made all people judge and jury.
People hate each other for the color of their skin or where they are from. There is no helping others, only what can I get for myself. There is no feeding the poor or helping the mothers, that is called a hand out in this country. They would rather say get a job, why should I help?
All kinds of crooked people and politicians are using his name to try to fool people to listen to them. They don't believe in his word because look what they do, even on his holiest days they curse and threaten war on others. How very Christian of them, is that what Jesus would have done?
So today my friends remember why Jesus came for and what he died for.
His message was pretty simple but we have seemed to lose all sight of it.
But not all hope is lost. Some of us still fight to have equal rights for all, to be able to help the poor, the children, the elderly and our veterans. To feed the poor. To show the world what it means to love our neighbors, and to help our neighbors. When in such a cold world, there are still some people out there trying to preach Jesus' word, that gives us all hope that his message was not lost. That he did not die in vain.
We need to remember that we all need to be the change we want to see, that he wanted to see.
