Stanek Easter quote: “This is the day of the Lord’s victory; let us be happy, let us celebrate!”
Listen to the glad shouts of victory in the tents of God’s people:
The Lord’s mighty power has done it!
His power has brought us victory—
his mighty power in battle!
I will not die; instead, I will live
and proclaim what the Lord has done.
He has punished me severely,
but he has not let me die.
Open to me the gates of the Temple;
I will go in and give thanks to the Lord!
This is the gate of the Lord;
only the righteous can come in.
I praise you, Lord, because you heard me,
because you have given me victory.
The stone which the builders rejected as worthless
turned out to be the most important of all.
This was done by the Lord;
what a wonderful sight it is!
This is the day of the Lord’s victory;
let us be happy, let us celebrate!
~ Psalm 118:15-24, Good News translation

THE LORD IS RISEN; HE IS RISEN INDEED!
If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all that He said; if He didn’t rise from the dead, then why worry about any of what He said? The issue on which everything hangs is not whether or not you like His teaching but whether or not He rose from the dead.–Tim Keller
