What Difference Does Easter Make?
Resurrection Day.
What does it mean and why does it matter?
On this day, over a billion people in the world will celebrate Easter or the resurrection all around the world.
Why would something that happened almost 2000 years ago still be making a difference today?
What does it all mean?
Today in the world there are approx.
2 billion people who profess to be Christians.
Christianity is the largest religion in the world although it is the religion of only 1/3 of the world.
The next closest religion is Islam and it has around a billion.
Now granted, these are broad claims as far as practice.
Just because people claim to be Christians doesn’t mean that they even go to church or more significantly, have a personal relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
But still, many will participate in some form of Easter celebration this weekend.
Easter is the highest attended church day of the year, followed by Christmas and then Mother’s day in the USA.
So, why is Easter such a big deal?
A lot of people will say, “I believe in the resurrection, I just don’t understand it”.
In a poll done a few years ago in the US, 84% of the people who never go to church said they believe that Jesus rose from the dead.
It’s pretty much a historical fact.
It wasn’t done in secret and He even told everyone before hand that he would do it!
The whole city of Jerusalem knew about it and eventually the whole Roman Empire.
It was news.
I can just imagine what it would have been like if there had been cameras and news crews back then.
But people believe what the want to believe.
Look at “fake news” today.
Jesus warned back then when He told the story of the rich man and the beggar Lazarus.
Lazarus died and went to the “bosom of Abraham”, and the rich man died and went to hades.
The rich man saw Abraham across the abyss and cried out to him to send Lazarus back to warn his brothers of the impending doom.
Abraham answered him saying that they could hear the truth from Moses and the prophets and the rich man said, “If only they could hear from someone from the dead they would repent.”
Abraham answered, , But he said to him, ‘If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.’
