The Methodist Church Scartho

Easter is a time of mixed emotions as Christians focus on the real meaning behind Easter, when we focus on, the celebrations, a fair well meal, betrayal, unjust trial, physical beatings that ended with a death on a cross. 
But the final event of rejoicing and celebration was that Jesus was raised from death appearing to his disciples and many others.
The Bible reveals that as sin came into the world through Adam and Eve’s disobedience and the only way to conquer sin was by the sacrifice of a perfect human.
In the Old Testament a perfect lamb without blemish was yearly scarified to deal with the sin of the people but Jesus was and is referred to being the spotless lamb of God. 
So, when he was crucified, he paid the price of sin, as this was prophesied many years previously.
So that anyone who believes that Jesus was and is the Son of God, paying the price for sin asking him into their life can receive eternal life and a relationship with our Heavenly Father.
