Easter Faith

“You must repent,’ Peter answered, ‘and every one of you must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” (Acts 2: 38)
To receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit, repentance comes first. The Holy Spirit of God will not inhabit a soul that is stained with sin. After repentance comes Baptism. Baptism washes away our sins and makes us the adopted children of God and brethren of Jesus Christ. We died with Christ in Baptism. At Easter we proclaim our faith in the resurrection of Jesus.
May the Risen Jesus fill your hearts and minds with the simple and gracious joys of Easter!
Consider this for a moment:
Through faith, we gain direct and immediate access to the promise of God’s
1. Pardon
2. Peace
3. Purpose
4. Power
5. Protection
6. Provision
You can call the above the 6 P’s of God’s promise.
This is the power of Christ’s Resurrection for each and every believer.
