He Is Risen!There are no better words to hear than the pronouncement

made on Easter morning that Jesus is risen; He is risen

indeed! With those few words, hope is placed in the hearts of

those who hear and believe because it is in those words that the

reality of victory over death is given and received.

Like most things, the apostle Paul says it best:

Death is swallowed up in victory.

The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be

to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always

abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord yourlabor is not in vain.(1 Corinthians 15)

The Good News for you is that Jesus is risen; He is risen

indeed!
