To celebrate Christ, and to acknowledge our love for Him, what should we do? We must pray, read our bible, and worship Him! It cost Christ his life when He came to earth, just so we could lead the kind of life we are able to lead today. We must give thanks to Him for [...]

He Lives

It’s all Because He Lives… I said it before, but I make no apology for repeating myself…if Christ hadn’t died on the cross and then risen from the dead, we wouldn’t celebrate Easter…and in fact would Christianity even be what it is today? Thank goodness for that very first Easter! Thank you God for sacrificing [...]
What Now?

Just a few months ago we celebrated the birth of Jesus, and then in the last couple of weeks, we celebrated Christ‘s death and His resurrection, but where do we go from here? Yes, Christmas and Easter are the two most important events in the Christian calendar but that doesn’t mean that when it’s not [...]
Never In Doubt

As far as I’m concerned, the reason we celebrate Easter has never been in doubt. However I do appreciate that for those of you who have never been told all about Jesus and how much He loves each one of us, you may still doubt why Christians celebrate Easter. It’s all about love… It’s all [...]
Why Did He Die?

It can be hard to comprehend sometimes why people die when they do. So that can make it even more difficult to comprehend why God would allow Jesus to die on the cross, when He could have saved Him… What He Was Dying To Say When Jesus was a boy With the teachers in the [...]
Emptiness

Emptiness…that’s a horrible, lonely and depressing word isn’t it. That’s why when we talk about an empty cross, an empty tomb at Easter time, it always seems slightly contradicting to be celebrating that emptiness. However for once, emptiness is a positive thing to be celebrating as without the emptiness of Christ‘s cross and the emptiness of His [...]
He IS Alive!

Mark 16:5-7 (NIV) As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid [...]

No I haven’t got the year wrong, I meant to give this a ten-year-old title! Why? Because Easter weekend 10 years ago marked the start of a new era in my Christian journey. Easter 2002 was the first weekend that I no long attended Rutherglen Salvation Army, but Bellshill corps instead. I’d been attending evening [...]
Do They Know It’s Easter?

You’re probably thinking, what a stupid questions, of course everyone knows it’s Easter! However I guess the question I’m really asking is do they know the reason why we celebrate Easter? Have a think about all your family, friends, work/school mates and your neighbours, what percentage of them do you think are celebrating the Christ‘s [...]
His Hands

Good Friday…why do we call today “good” Friday, when on this day we remember the pain and the agony Christ suffered for us when He died on a cross. It’s a fabulous Friday simply because of that pain and agony Christ suffered for us when He died on a cross. After all, as I’ve said [...]
