The Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus

The death of Jesus on the cross is one of the most significant events in human history, and it continues to have an impact on the world today. For Christians, it is the ultimate expression of God’s love for humanity and is the foundation of our faith. It is believed that Jesus died on the cross as a sacrifice for the sins of humanity. This event is commemorated by Christians worldwide during the Holy Week, which leads up to Easter Sunday. The death of Jesus has been interpreted in many ways throughout history, but at its core, it is a story of sacrifice, love, and redemption.

The death of Jesus on the cross is viewed as the ultimate sacrifice. Christians believe that Jesus died on the cross to pay the penalty for the sins of humanity. This sacrifice was necessary to reconcile humanity with God. According to the Bible, all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Humans are born with a sinful nature and are separated from God. However, through the death of Jesus on the cross, humanity can be reconciled with God and receive the gift of salvation.

Theologians have long debated the exact nature of Jesus’ sacrifice, but it is generally agreed that it was an act of love and selflessness. Jesus willingly gave up his life for the sake of others, and his death is seen as a powerful symbol of God’s love for humanity.

The crucifixion of Jesus was a brutal and painful event. Jesus was stripped, beaten, and forced to carry his cross to the place of execution. He was then nailed to the cross and left to die. The crucifixion was a common method of execution in the Roman Empire, but it was reserved for the worst criminals. The fact that Jesus was crucified shows the extent of his suffering and sacrifice.

It is a reminder of the lengths that God was willing to go to show his love for humanity. This is why you should not let this Easter season pass without benefiting from the crucifixion of Jesus. God’s love for humankind is huge, and we have no excuse to reject His love.

While the death of Jesus on the cross is a significant event, it is not the end of the story. Christians believe that Jesus rose from the dead three days after his crucifixion. History confirms that Jesus rose from the dead on the third day. This event, known as the resurrection, is the foundation of the Christian faith. Through the resurrection, Christians believe that Jesus conquered death and made eternal life possible.

The resurrection of Jesus is a powerful symbol of hope and new life. It is a reminder that death is not the end, and that through faith in Jesus, eternal life is possible. The resurrection is celebrated each year by Christians worldwide during Easter, and it is a time to reflect on the power of God’s love and the hope it brings.

The death of Jesus on the cross has had a profound impact on the world, and it continues to inspire and challenge people today. It is a reminder of the power of love, sacrifice, and redemption and a symbol of the hope that is possible through faith. Have you given your life to Jesus and accepted His offer of love for you?

His Death and His Name

I was watching the Passion of the Christ and I got some revelation out of it. Jesus’ death on the cross was not a joke. He suffered on the cross for mankind. I believe no one can go through this pain for nothing. Jesus knew that His death on the cross was the game-changer. Yes and I believe it is the game-changer for all who accept Him into their lives.

The devil makes us forget the benefits of His death to keep us in bondage. Satan is aware of the benefits that belong to Christians when they get to know what is for them. When your father rejects you because you are carrying the sins of the world, that is a serious thing. When Jesus said, “It is accomplished”, He knew what He was saying.

Therefore, I believe that no one would ever be rejected if that person comes to Jesus. The Bible says whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Jesus cannot allow His death on the cross to go to waste. He will accept anyone who comes to Him. Salvation from sin was part of the deal on the cross of Calvary.

God approved the name of Jesus and made it a name that is above every other name for a purpose. There are several names in the world. Some of these names bring fear and panic. Some of these names have already caused havoc in families. When these names are mentioned, men and women of honour bow.

Recently, there has been a name called COVID-19 and this has caused so much panic and pain in the lives of individuals and families. Governments have succumbed to this name and this name has destroyed economies. But there is a name that COVID-19 fears and dread. When the name of Jesus is mentioned, COVID-19 does not have a chance.

God knew that a time is coming when some names would come into this world to cause fear and panic. Therefore, God gave us the name of Jesus. When we pray in the name of Jesus, tell me who has the power to oppose, in the name of mighty Jesus, we have the victory. When the name of Jesus is mentioned anywhere and anytime, these supposed powerful names bow. They do not have a choice.

All these benefits from the name of Jesus came about because of His death on the cross. If we fail to use the name of Jesus, we are making His death on the cross of no effect. The benefits from His death on the cross must be used and enforced. We, as ambassadors of God, must represent Him fully by using His name to the fullest. He has given us the power of attorney to use His name. When I mention the name of Jesus, sicknesses flee, irrespective of the name of that sickness.

Interestingly, the name of Jesus can resurrect dead cells and replace body parts. There is so much power in the name that I wish Christians would be aware of this and begin to use this name to deal with all the other inferior names that are making too much noise in the world. Those who do know their God shall be strong and do exploits.

I believe that Christians who know the power in the name of Jesus are very bold and confident about dealing with any circumstance. They do not care about the extent of the situation, they know that when they mention the name of Jesus, things would change. When we have this knowledge, it should generate great faith to deal with every situation.

These are just my thoughts about Jesus’ death and the power in His name. This name Jesus is more powerful than any disease, poverty, or affliction. Just use and have faith in this name and nothing shall overcome you. If you have not given your life to Jesus, consider Him and accept Him into your life and then begin to enjoy the benefits that come with the name. God bless you.
