Three Gifts of the Resurrection (2 of 2)

John 16:16-33
Happy Resurrection Day! And Happy 5th Birthday to Cross Church this morning! In fact, let's all say, ''Happy Birthday, Cross Church'' together on the count of three.
This one-day set aside to center in on the resurrection is an unusual happy day. We celebrate it with pastel colors and feature opportunities for children to play. Everything around this holiday is built to celebrate and communicate hope, joy, and happiness. But you have to really search for it because you have move beyond the barnacles that have grown around the day of eggs, bunnies, and chocolate to find the granite behind for lasting happiness.
Since the year 325, Easter has been observed on the first Sunday after the full moon following when the time when the sun crosses the equator. Many early Christians observed Easter on the 14th day of Nisan (April 19, 2019) regardless of what day of the week it fell on. Regardless of WHEN it is observed, Easter is and will always be a special day for believers for WHY it is observed. Jesus rose from the grave is designed to eternally secure your peace, your joy, and your relationship to God. Some of you even accepted Christ on Easter - making this day extra special!
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is a game-changer. But to experience the game-changing effects of Jesus' resurrection, you must believe in a miracle.
I want everyone to have the ''Communication Card'' near you. You'll find some in the pew in front of you or on your chair for Cross Church. I'll share important instructions with you at the end of the message.
I invite you to find John 16 (page 1148 in your pew Bibles). This morning I want to speak you about ''Three Gifts of the Resurrection.''
