Who for and at what Cost?
The British royal family mark Commonwealth Day for the diversity of the nation and the future, but the many issues of slavery and exploitation that was involved in building that former Empire are of course not addressed since that would make them convicted of their guilt to pay some compensation!
It is a tough area for many European countries that were involved in slavery and the money that was made to build their nations on the backs of black people who still are not considered fully equal in the nations of France, Spain, Britain, The Netherlands, Portugal and Belgium today!
We even see out blown racism in the public domain and some members of the British Royal family towards Megan and their driving away into public life by a hostile racist media!
We can really only account to God for our own failings as individuals, but like Nazi-Germany people families need to be held accountable for their part in past atrocities?

MAY DAY?
Treat your workers Well?
God sees and knows everything, but He is patient even with the wicked hoping that they will see their need of Him and repent!
Many people today work for pittance on contracts that will lead to instant dismissal, if they ask for a day off or get sick?
Nothing much has changed when it comes to making money on the backs of others, cheap labour or slavery!
Luke 3:14, John 4:36, Romans 3:22-23, 6:22-23, Colossians 4:1, James 5:4.

E-2.
Resurrection to New Life!
We cannot enter into our New Lives, without Jesus rising from the dead?
Jesus rose on the third day as He said He would, so that death would be conquered and the victory gained for us!
Much work was done by our Lord between His death and rising, in gathering all the captives of the past and setting them free!
Jesus spent forty days here on Earth and was seen by over five-hundred people, apart from His Disciples.
Matthew 20:19, Luke 13:32, Acts 2:31, Romans 6:5, 1 Corinthians 15:4, 16:2, 1 Peter 1:3.

Day Two! Part-Two.
Burial Preparations!
It was the traditional custom to prepare spices to keep the flies off the dead body and this was a legal requirement. Much of this hearkened back to the time when the Hebrews were living in Egypt and was an art in itself?
The woman were His mother and Mary Magdalene the whore who was delivered of evil spirits and some other woman, but next morning when they got yo the tomb it was empty!
Meanwhile the religious leaders of the day plotted to undermine His Disciples and followers that there was a resurrection!
In today's world there are many who are trying their hardest to discount the truth about Jesus, but we must make that choice for ourselves, wither we believe that He died for us or that we reject Him and face the consequences of Eternal separation from Him in Hell?
Luke 23:56, 24:1, Exodus 30:25-37, 1 Chronicles 9:30, 2 Chronicles 16:14, Mark 16:9, John 20:14-18.

Day two! Part-One.
Day One death, day three Resurrection!
These are generally the two emphasis points of the Easter story, but day two is the one that is over looked and yet it is essential to understand all three together, because without it many believers today are missing the points later on in the New Testament teaching?
Jesus birth, death and resurrection are key to understanding why He had to die, fulfilling the Jewish Laws for us as the final sacrifice for sin and His rising allows us to enter into the promises of Eternal Life, but we are now in the New Life!
Much of the work of Jesus was done in the grave of reconciling Jews and Gentiles of gathering the captives in His train and all the while the world was trying to undermine these events with lies to dispute the truth, which it continues to do to this day!
Isaiah 26:19, 60:1, 61:1, Luke 4:18, John 5:25, 12:46, Ephesians 5:14, Colossians 1:13.

Knives! One.
Murders from Stabbing.
Life is cheap when gangs resort to stabbing out of their understanding of twisted ideas?
Respect, facing up or down, rivalry, showmanship are all aspects of the same thing?
There is no easy solution to gang warfare, because it is going on all over the world and no one as yet has been able to stop it!
London has seen fifty-five murders in the last four months, but considering the population is ten-million plus its not a big figure as is being made out?
What we learn from the bible is that it is mostly evil people who open themselves up and refuse to submit to God! If they do not do it with a weapon they do it under their tongue in inflammatory speech to raise the game!
We are warned that in the last times evil will prevail much more than it is now and knowing this we should understand that while it is still light we seek Jesus and Eternity!
Proverbs 30:14, John 9:4, Hebrews 3:13, 15. Revelation 9:8.

Leaving and Returning!
Some (believers) Forget?
Even people of faith can allow themselves to get caught up in tradition of holidays like Christmas and Easter and forget that their faith in God has much more to offer?
Jesus Ascended back to Heaven and Angels said, 'He would return again in the same way!'
Jesus is coming back to collect the Ekklesia, Bride of Christ or family of God at the end of the Age!
We must be ready for that great and terrible day, when the sky as we understand it will be opened to reveal the mighty armies of Heaven descend to Earth?
Acts 1:2-11, John 14:3, 2 Thessalonians 1:10, Revelation 1:7.

Resurrection.
Jesus said...
'He would rise from the grave on the third day' and he did, thus death or the sting of death has been overcome for us who believe in Him.
Matthew 17:23, Mark 10:34, Luke 18:33, Acts 10:40, 1 Corinthians 15:4.
Over five-hundred people saw the risen Lord during His forty days on Earth, before He made His Acension to Heaven.
Acts 1:3.
Many people think that is the end of the story, but it is only the beginning of a bigger story by far.
Matthew 24:18, Luke 17:31, James 5:7-8.

Judgement.
Day of the Lord, Return, Judgement Day.
Do you know that Jesus is coming back!
There are a lot of people out there, including 'Christians who do not believe in the Day of the Lord.
The mockers say' When is this Day coming, it has been a long time.
Booh 'He comes like a thief in the night.
Acts 1:11, 2 Peter 3:10, Revelation 3:3.

May Day.
A Day for....
The workers, traditional European May festivals, the call from a sinking ship. All of these are associated with this one day.
Socialism and Communism mark it as a day for the workers and most workers in this world are poor people, doing all the menial or dirty jobs. From the toilet cleaner/Janitor to factory worker, construction, steel industry, farming.
Others mark May Day in its European traditional of dancing around the May pole, with ribbons and flowers.
For others it is the distress call of the sinking ship, perhaps their first opportunity to cry out to the God they don't believe in ' Save Me.'
Amos 5:4, John 3:16, Hebrews 9:27, Romans 3:23, 6:23, !0:9, Psalm 111:19, Acts 4;2, Proverbs 9:10, Philippians 2:10.
