The Personal Power of Easter
Scott Maze
1 John 3
Happy Resurrection Day and Happy Easter to you all! Easter finds its meaning in this: He has risen!
We are grateful you are with us today. No matter your religious background or your faith status, we welcome you here. Easter is the promise of so much. It's the promise of new life after we are dead and gone. Easter is the promise of a clean life, and it's the promise of forgiveness. Easter is the promise of a fresh start! Easter is a reason for a deep down and everlasting joy no matter the difficulties and challenges we are experiencing.
Find 1 John 3 with me if you (page 1211 in your pew Bibles).
We celebrate Easter because Jesus rose from the grave. Jesus' last recorded words before He died on Friday were, "It is Finished." Jesus didn't say, "I am finished." He said, "It is finished." Because He was just getting started!1
In just a few minutes, I am going to invite you to come to faith in Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. I'm going to say I want those of you who will today openly, publicly receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.

Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. 8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. 9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. 10 By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousne ...
