About this sermon
Why is the Resurrection of Christ considered the feast of feasts? In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit; One God, Amen. Why is the feast of the resurrection considered the feast of all feasts? Said differently, why is it such a big deal among Christians? In order to answer this question properly, we must consider a few important things. Many other religions speak symbolically of “dying to oneself”, or the importance of recreation, or new life…and while these themes and patterns are found in a variety of expressions, no faith other than Christianity is willing to make the extremely bold claim that our God took on the form of a servant, became human, and even died in the flesh for our sakes. But He did not simply die – he defeated death in rising from the dead! This unique claim is the cornerstone of our faith – Our God is the author of life and has even conquered death. For this reason, we no longer fear death – dare I say we look forward to it – because we believe that He will raise us up also into everlasting life with Him.
