Easter, upon hearing this topic,what spring my mind is the death, crucifixion and resurrection of a marty i.e Jesus Christ,our Lord and personal saviour,The one who has the authority over heaven and earth, However, celebration of easter must go beyond mouth,and what we put on,we must think about what Jesus goes through and what he had to cope with for us (Human being) imagine how people asked and plead Pilate to released Barabbas for them instead of Jesus.
Pasha(Resurrection Sunday)is a christian festival and cultural holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead,described in the new testament (mark 15,matthew 27,Luke 23)Jesus was crucified in the place called "Golgotha"meaning,the place of skull,where the soldiers gave him a drink wine mingled with myrrh,but he received it not,they mocked him, parted his garment ,and in the third hours Jesus was crucified.The superscription of his accusation was written over,THE KING OF THE JEWS,with him they crucify two thieves,the one on his right hand,and other on his left,he was numbered with transgressor.when it's six hour,there was darkness over the whole land till ninth hours,at the ninth hours Jesus cried with a loud voice"Eloi,Eloi,Lamasabachthani? meaning,my God ,my God,why hast thou forsaken me.
After the crucifixion and the death of Jesus Christ on the cross,A man named Joseph Arimathea went boldly to Pilate and craved for his body,Pilate gave the body of Jesus to Joseph Arimathea and he buried him in a place called sepulchre which was hewn out of rock.On the third day of Jesus burial,Mary Magdalene,Mary Mother of James and Salome bought sweet spices to anoint the body of the body of Jesus Christ,but to thier surprised,Jesus had resurrected,the grave was empty,but the angel of the Lord told them to meet him in Galilee which led to good friday this days.when Jesus was resurrected early the first day of the week,he appeared to Mary Magdalene out of whom he cast seven devil's.
The only commandment Jesus gave to us believers is to go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature,but the question here is Are we obeying his commandment,Are we not misinterpreting the word easter.
Christian doctrine should always remember that easter marks the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and his ascension into heaven.
