Jesus Is Alive!

Happy Easter-Resurrection! 


Elvis is dead, Picasso is dead. Jimi Hendrix & Janis Joplin are dead. Marilyn Monroe is dead- however...Jesus is Alive. 

Brando is dead, James Brown is dead. Princess Di & John Lennon are dead. Biggie Smalls & Tu Pac are dead - however...Jesus is Alive. 

Give praise to King Jesus, blessed son Victorious, glorious resurrected One. To Him belongs the power, the glory and honor. Ascended where He sits at the right hand of the Father. At the cross He made atonement - His people are saved. After three days He was raised in defeat of the grave. By faith we behold Him, His scepter is golden. He must have been hot or slippery because death couldn't hold Him. The spotlight is on today's icons. In a thousand years, nobody will care - their lights gone. 
But at that time, Christ will still shine bright. He's not in the limelight - He IS the limelight. Criminal minded, you've been blinded. Looking for the body of Jesus? You won't find it. We never lack spirit, letting you cats hear it because His tomb is empty like most secular rap lyrics. 

Plato is dead, Socrates is dead. Aristotle & Immanuel Kant are dead. Neitzsche & Darwin are dead - however...Jesus is Alive. 

Buddha is dead, Mohammed is dead. Ghandi & Halie Selassie are dead. Elijah Mohammed is dead - however...Jesus is Alive. 

Throughout history there's been mad religious leaders. Prophets, preachers, scholars, teachers. But when it came to the grave, no one could climb out. That's where Jesus stands alone like taking a "timeout". And don't be mislead - I got a level head. No resurrection, Christianity would have never spread. The disciples weren't stupid guys who would ruin their lives. And then choose to die for what they knew was a lie. That would be beyond ridiculous - Nah, the issue is the Risen Christ seen by 500 eye-witnesses. Imagine 500 people in a court of law. Each of them taking the stand reporting what they saw. If their stories lined up and made sense the evidence would have to leave you convinced. But still it's by faith that we trust and praise the Son who was raised for our justification. 

Nero is dead, Constantine is dead. Genghis Khan and Attila the Hun are dead. Alexander the great is dead - however...Jesus is Alive.
