3. About Resurrection
1. It is my honest opinion that,
• "One of the greatest misfortunes, is to celebrate the Resurrection Sunday "once a year"
2.It is also my honest opinion that,
• We ought to live and walk in Resurrection Power everyday
NB: ON RESURRECTION SUNDAY
1. We commemorate the death and the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ
2. It is celebrated by all Christians all over the world
3. However, we do it only once a year and I believe we ought to walk in that Power everyday
4. The Start of it All "Redemption Plan"
1. The Redemption Plan includes
• His death
• His burial
• His Resurrection
2.After Adam had committed sin "high treason" against his creator
3.God did not just live Him to suffer eternally in his fallen nature
4.God, immediately outlined a "Redemption Plan" to win him back
NB: A glimpse was given in the garden of Eden
• after they had sinned, God covered them with a skin/leather
NB: SINCE THE PLAN OF REDEMPTION WAS STILL HIDDEN

• Because the Blood is for those that have repented
7. The Start of it All "Redemption Plan"

to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared. But they found the stone rolled away from the
tomb. Then they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. And it happened, as they were greatly
perplexed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in shining garments. Then, as they were afraid and
bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not
here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, saying, ‘The Son of Man must be
delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.’ ” Luke 24:1-7 NKJV

23. Scripture Reading
“Now when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome
bought spices, that they might come and anoint Him. Very early in the morning, on the first
day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen. “And they said among
themselves, “Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us? But when they
looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away—for it was very large. And
entering the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a long white robe sitting on the right
side; and they were alarmed. But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of
Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.
But go, tell His disciples—and Peter—that He is going before you into Galilee; there you will
see Him, as He said to you.” So they went out quickly and fled from the tomb, for they
trembled and were amazed. And they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
