OPINION: Easter is God reminding us of this one life-changing thing

More than 500 eyewitnesses saw Jesus dead and buried, and then saw him alive again. The resurrection is a fact in the past that offers hope for the future.
If we believe in Christ, we will one day receive the very same type of body he has--one that will not age or get sick or die again. We will receive a body fit for a New Creation. This world will be wonderfully freed from its bondage to sin and renewed to the abundant life God intended. Easter affirms that this future hope is not a fantasy. It’s real. for the present. Families who experience the sting of the death of a loved one experience the darkest moment in their lives.
If you are feeling the sting of death or the pain of any other loss in your life, then I would encourage you to remember the reality of Easter.through his resurrection is a fact in the past that offers hope for the future and comfort for the present for all who will simply place their faith in the Jesus who promised,"I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me will live, even though they die" .Dr.
