TRINITY CHRISTIAN CENTER CHURCH MISSIVE

VOL. 7:–No: 12(March 27, 2016)

Philippians 4:13-“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”

Back in the 1880’s philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche declared that “God is dead”, and before the turn of the twentieth century, George Shaw and H.G. Wells chimed in saying the 20th century would mark the end of the world’s “religious phase”.

Yet, today a church now meets in Russia’s Museum of Religion and Atheism-the former center of atheism. Nearly half of the United States’ population attend worship on a regular basis while revival is sweeping through Latin America and Christianity grows behind China’s iron curtain.

Nietzsche, Shaw, and Wells have long since decayed in their graves, and God continues to live! That’s the message of Easter. He is risen. He is risen, indeed!

Muhammad died and was buried. His faithful followers take pilgrimages to visit his remains; the same is true of Buddha and other religious leaders. But it is not true of Jesus. You cannot visit His remains; you can only visit His empty grave because He isn’t there. He arose!

That’s why we celebrate Easter!!!
