The message OF Easter is identical with the
truth that each Lords day proclaims to men
the resurrection OF Jesus Christ The central
thought OF the apostles ministry was the
resurrection Of their Lord and Saviour. II has
been the dominant theme OF every gospel mes
sage. The risen Christ's first communication
was sent TO his discouraged disciples that they
might rejoice because he was risen from the
dead.
Does Easter nnd you discouraged Have
YOU made a bad investment Of your life and
labor Are you disturbed MS TO the future?
HAS death terror for YOU? Then let MS rejoice.
for Christ has won a victory for MS. Let us
give thanks because he is risen. Ais resurrec-
tion contains the promise OF our endless lie.
10 is also prophetic OF the Christians resurrec-
ton when Jesus shall come again The hopes
of eternal life should inspire rs with dynamic
force by which We can. through he presence
and power OF our risen Lgrd, rise above the
difficulties discouragements and defeats of this
present age His resurrection has solved our
problem. removed sin and burdens that have
filled us with despair and turned our apparent
defeats into one glorious triumph The gospel
OF the resurrection proclaims victory OF re-
generation over degeneration. of construction
over reformation. of life over death that
Christ has secured for every creature that viii
believe on him as their risen Saviour.
