The above video is entitled “Couldn’t they have stolen his body and made it up?” In it, Mr Jose Philip explains how it is much more difficult and unlikely for the disciples of Jesus to have fabricated the resurrection, than for it to have been a true, historical occurrence. Mr Philip has previously taught theology and apologetics at EAST classes in his capacity as a visiting faculty.
For a video series by Jose Philip on the reasons why Easter could be fake and the possible proof for the death and resurrection of Jesus, view “Fake!! Death and Resurrection of Jesus” here.
“He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.” – 1 Peter 2:24. ESV
This Friday is Good because “He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness…” As we remember His great sacrifice, may we likewise extend His redemptive forgiveness to others as those whose wounds have been healed by Him. Selah.
“Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.” – Psalms107:6, ESV
Thank God that we can come to Him by faith, trusting Him to deliver us when we are in trouble. Even when we are not in need, we can always come to the Lord in thanksgiving prayer. Shalom.
“Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice.” – Philippians 4:4, ESV
What a privilege to be able to rejoice in our Lord, from whom all blessings flow and who protect us from all danger and harm. May He grant us supernatural joy and shalom peace as we place our trust in Him through all circumstances of life.
“And, in addition to all these things, put on love, which ties things together in perfect unity.” – Colossians 3:14, ESV.
We are called above all, to serve one another with love. It is upon such a solid foundation that we can help EAST achieve its mission of “equipping servant leaders for the Great Commission.”
Let us pray for EAST Administrative and Ministry staff to continue in love and unity as they serve with a servanthood attitude. Shalom.
