Crist is Risen!
"It is the Day of Resurrection! Let us be radiant, O people! Pascha! The Lord's Pascha! For Christ our God has brought us from death to life, and from earth unto heaven, as we sing triumphant hymns: Christ is risen from the dead!"
This Easter hymn of Eastern Church not only the best and the deepest presentation of the meaning of Easter holiday - in its entirety it reveals the important significance of Resurrection of Christ individually for each of us.
The Resurrection of Christ is our Easter too; it is our personal transfer from spiritual death to spiritual life too, from earth to Heavens.
Easter - is the victory for us, that was gifted to us by Lord. It is an individual chance for each of us to transfer from the mentality of death to the mentality of life.
Exactly for that, Jesus brought us the saving wisdom and the teaching to avoid the mistakes of the materialistic world and the false good of the relatives and other people. We cannot but consider carefully the precepts of Jesus and follow the way of life to inherit the life with God in His Kingdom, with His Angels, both - on the Earth and there?
The call of this victory are so great and truly magnificent words as "Christ is Risen!" the Resurrection of Christ is the victory of life over death, victory of the good over evil, victory of holiness over sin.
The Resurrection of Christ is the triumph of God's love to the humankind to each of us individually.
Apostle Paul says in the Epistle to Romans and in the Epistle to Thessalonians:
"God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" because "For God has not destined us for wrath but to obtain salvation through Our Lord Jesus Christ", as "For those whom He foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, in order that He might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those whom He predestined he also called, and those whom He called He also justified, and those whom He justified He also glorified."
God glorified Jesus by Resurrection.
Christ is Risen!
On this solemn and holy Day of Resurrection of Christ I wish you peace, joy, accordance and love of God to inherit the Saving Resurrection of Christ!
