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.

Ascension and Pentecost!
Leaving, Holy Spirit and promised Return.
The Disciples were privileged to see Jesus their risen Lord return to Heaven, ten days later they received the Holy Spirit in the Temple of Jerusalem, Roman occupied Israel!
This time the Holy Spirit was given to all believers and there were many more from all over the known world that day of Shavout, Jews from the very east, south and west.
Today believers live in that same empowerment to reach out to the dying, decaying world around us! But we are also waiting the return of Jesus, who every eye will see when the sky is torn apart!
We have no time or date for His promised return, but we have been told not to be found naked and be alert for He will come like a thief in the Night!
Acts 1:6-11, 2:3, 19:6, Exodus 23:16, Matthew 25:36-44. 2 Peter 3:10, Revelation 3:3, 16:5.

Proof. Part-Two.
500.
They normally don;t tell you that over five hundred people witnesed the resurrection of Jesus.
Many people like to think it was only the elite few, His Disciples and maybe a few friends.

1 Corinthians 15:6-7, Hebrews 13:20.

'Do You Want to be...Part-One.
in My Gang.
These are the words of a 'Rock song, but the reality today in our cities is that many are joining up as earlyas they can to be in the Gangs.
Being in a Gang, Posse, Crowd has always given the sense of protection, this does stem from the past when most people belonged to the Tribe or Clan.
But there is a great difference between the Tribe and the Gang. The tribe gives identity to a race and culture or family. The Gang has a sinister element, it has loyalty to a leader for bad and not for good.
Jesus had His Disciples or/and followers, an intial 12 plus about 100 others. Today believers in Jesus belong to a Spiritual building and we move in the power of God, not weapons and guns.
Psalm 68:27, Matthew 5:1, 10:25, Mark 14:48, 2 Corinthians 12:20, 1 Peter 2:4-5.
