 Glory to Jesus Risen Conquering Son
Non stop playlist here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Kv23_DDdEw&list=RD-Kv23_DDdEw&index=1 *** Jerusalem: Holy Fire Ceremony at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre 6 min video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEEh6FYDTC4  4-20-25, The annual celebration and remembrance of the Lord King Jesus Christ' arising from the dead - HIS RESURRECTION - has been labeled 'Easter' after Ishtar. [1] Easter is one two most important celebrations in the Christian calendar - Jesus was born of a virgin and arose from the dead. After His crucifixion, death and burial, three days later He arose from the grave. He walked the earth 40 before He ascended to Heaven*. Acts 1:11. By this, He conquered death and redeemed all repentant sinners. 1 Corinthians 15:13-15 *christianpure.com/learn/how-many-days-jesus-earth-resurrection/  [1] Ishtar www.gotquestions.org/Ishtar-Easter.html     4-18-25 -- All through the ages many refuse to believe that Jesus Christ is THE ONLY WAY to forgiveness and eternity with God. Because of God's love for His creation of mankind He knew man cannot save himself; therefore Jesus came to die in our place. Jesus said, "I am the Way, Truth, Life no one comes to the Father but by ME." John 14:6 He also said: "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." John 3:17-18 Lost ALEADY? ... faith, repentance & obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ is required for salvation. We must be born again. John 3:3, 7  There is no doubt that the Lord Jesus really did die on that cross [and He arose!]. Pilate was given assurance of this by a centurion (Mark 15:43-45) who thrust a savage spear into His side (John 19:34) making certain of His death, "and forthwith came out blood and water," evidencing complete collapse of the heart cavity. Thank YOU, Jesus for dying for us. -- Barnes Commentary: biblehub.com/commentaries/barnes/matthew/27.htm 
 President Trump reflected on the profound sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ and the hope in His Resurrection - his proclamation: "This Holy Week, Melania and I join in prayer with Christians celebrating the crucifixion and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ — the living Son of God who conquered death, freed all repentant sinners from their sin and unlocked the gates of heaven for all of humanity." Several prominent Christian leaders were in attendance: Pastor Paula White, Rev Franklin Graham, Pastor Greg Laurie. Each delivered prayers and scripture emphasizing themes of unity, compassion, repentance, forgiveness and the enduring power of faith in the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  29 minute video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06p_dQedkLM

  4-16-25, The Lord Jesus told His disciples about His pending death; but they didn't understand and consequently didn't expect it. So the extreme joy they felt with Jesus explained the sorrow and anguish they felt when He died.
However, there'd be joy in the morning when He arose! Like a woman in childbirth; pain now ... joy later! Psalm 30:5; Isaiah 60:20; John 16:20-22; Mark 16:6; Matthew 16:21, 20:19, 28:6 -- Ellicott Commentary: https://biblehub.com/commentaries/ellicott/john/16.htm 
   
~~ Note: Americans have the freedom to worship the Lord Jesus Christ or any other entity they wish - the Resurrection of Jesus [aka Easter] is as important to Christians as 'Christmas' when He was born. We appreciate knowing - we once again - have a Christian President. Isaiah 7:14, 9:6; Micah 5:2; Matthew 2:1; Luke 1:26-38, 2:11  4-13-25, * -- After his first five hour annual physical since returning to office, Dr Sean Barbabella at Walter Reed Hospital reports that the 78-year-old President Donald J. Trump is fit to serve after his recent exam that included diagnostic and laboratory testing. All was conducted in consultation with fourteen specialists who noted the series of examinations were all normal. Dr Barbabella said: 'President Trump exhibits excellent cognitive and physical health and is fully fit to execute the duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State. President Trump remains in excellent health, exhibiting robust cardiac, pulmonary, neurological and general physical function. His active lifestyle continues to contribute significantly to his well-being. Examination of the head, ears, nose and throat revealed no significant abnormalities with the exception of scaring on the right ear from a gunshot wound." His cognitive functions were tested using the 10 minute Montreal Cognitive Assessment test for mild cognitive impairment - his results came back normal with a score of 30 out of 30.

He was born of a virgin, died and rose again. His triumph over death is fundamental and all the paintings depict His empty tomb. Some ancient paintings depict Him floating in the air however the predominant from the Middle Ages shows the Savior firmly on the ground, holding the banner of the Resurrection with its red cross, either standing upright in the open sarcophagus or in the act of stepping out of it.   In the Holy Bible Gospel of Matthew it's recorded soldiers that Pilate put to guard the tomb refutes the claim that the disciples secretly removed Jesus' body. [Matthew 27:62-66]. In the paintings, the soldiers are generally recumbent around the tomb, either in attitudes of sleep, or awake and shading their eyes from fear or the dazzling light that surrounds Christ.

 3-6-25, Interesting dates of war: The Western nations' war on Iraq was declared on March 19, 2003 and they also attacked Libya on March 20, 2011. Is there an occult reason behind this? Both invasions occurred on the eve of the Vernal Equinox – a date that was and still is – extremely significant throughout History. According to some researchers, it's the date of the Sun’s resurrection and in Illuminati lore, the Spring Equinox is considered a Minor Sabbath, requiring human sacrifice. March 21-22 is dedicated to the ancient Goddess Ostara (Ishtar) - for whom mankind has named the anniversary of the Lord Jesus Christ's resurrection: “Easter.” This year we celebrate Resurrection Sunday on March 20, 2025.

-- Gill's Commentary: https://biblehub.com/commentaries/gill/matthew/27.htm  Gaza, Temple Mount and the Hebrew Passover Lamb: |
| Lebanon: Dozens of rockets fired into Israel, IDF says | CNN 4-6-23, CNN -- Thirty-four rockets from Lebanon were launched into the Jewish nation of Israel. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said the majority were intercepted but six landed. Israeli military believes the Islamic terror group Hamas or the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group in Gaza was behind the attack, not the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah. | Gaza Islamic Terrorists Fire Rockets at Israel in response to Temple Mount confrontation linked to Passover Lamb 4-6-23, IsraelToday [here] -- After evening prayers (we are in the midst of Ramadan) a large group of Muslim youth barricaded themselves inside the Al Aqsa Mosque with a stockpile of stones and fireworks. Israel Police officers tried to convince them to stand down, but were eventually forced to enter the mosque, at which point they were attacked with said stones and fireworks. | Yes, the pious Muslim youth shot fireworks inside Islam’s supposedly third holiest site. The reason for the riots is the attempt by some religious Jewish elements to reinstate the Passover sacrifice atop the Temple Mount. Islam views expressions of Jewish faith at Judaism’s holiest site of TEMPLE MOUNT [where King Solomon built a temple] where the Islamic Dome of the Rock sits as a provocation, and even an act of war. |

Jesus Christ fulfilled over 300 Old Testament prophecies ... twelve follow:
- He would make a triumphal entry in Jerusalem (Zechariah 9:9, Psalm 118).
- He would be smitten like a shepherd (Zechariah 13:7).
- He would be betrayed for 30 pieces of silver (Zechariah 11:1-13 and Psalm 41:9).
- He would be given vinegar and gall (Psalm 69:21).
- They would cast lots for His garments (Psalm 22:18).
- His bones would not be broken (Exodus 12:46; Numbers 9:12; Psalm 34:20).
7. His side would be pierced (Zechariah 12 and Psalm 22:16).
8. He would die among malefactors (Isaiah 53:9, 12).
9. His dying words were foretold (Psalm 22:1,31).
10. He would be buried by a rich man (Isaiah 53:9).
11. He would rise on the third day (Jonah 1:17; cf. Genesis 22:4 with Hebrews 11:19).
12. His resurrection would be followed by the destruction of Jerusalem (Daniel 9, 11 and 12).
The risen Savior had at least twelve post resurrection appearances to at least five hundred thirteen people:
8. He would die among malefactors (Isaiah 53:9, 12).
9. His dying words were foretold (Psalm 22:1,31).
10. He would be buried by a rich man (Isaiah 53:9).
11. He would rise on the third day (Jonah 1:17; cf. Genesis 22:4 with Hebrews 11:19).
12. His resurrection would be followed by the destruction of Jerusalem (Daniel 9, 11 and 12).
The risen Savior had at least twelve post resurrection appearances to at least five hundred thirteen people:
- Appearance 1: Mary Magdalene: John 20:11-17 notes Mary Magdalene as the first person to see Jesus alive again.
- Appearance 2: The Other Mary and Salome: Matthew 28:9-10 records Jesus also appearing to the other Mary and Salome (Mark 16:1) on the Sunday morning of the resurrection"
- Appearance 3: Simon Peter: Luke 24:34 notes Jesus appearing to Peter on the Sunday of His resurrection: “It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon.”
- Appearance 4: The Two Disciples Walking to Emmaus: In Luke 24:13-32, two followers of Jesus are walking from Jerusalem to Emmaus on the Sabbath. Jesus appears, though they do not recognize Him until the end of the account. One disciple is named Cleopas (Luke 24:18), while the second disciple is unnamed.
- Appearance 5: The 10 Apostles: After Jesus appeared to the two men walking to Emmaus, they returned to Jerusalem to tell the apostles. While there, Jesus appeared to 10 of the apostles, all except Thomas (Luke 24:33-49).
- Appearance 6: The 11 Apostles: John 20:26-30 records Jesus appearing to all 11 apostles “a week later” at a home in Jerusalem. This likely refers to the next Sunday. Thomas believes and no longer doubts.
- Appearance 7: The Seven Apostles: The final chapter of John records seven apostles on an all-night fishing trip that occurred on the Sea of Galilee sometime after Christ’s appearance 10 days after His resurrection and before His ascension 40 days after His resurrection. This group included Simon Peter, Thomas, Nathanael, James and John (the sons of Zebedee), and two unnamed apostles (John 21:1-14). John records this as the third time Jesus had appeared to a group of disciples following His resurrection (John 21:14).
- Appearance 8: The Apostles in Galilee: Matthew’s Gospel ends with the risen Jesus meeting the apostles in Galilee (Matthew 28:16-20). Jesus receives worship from His followers. He also gives the Great Commission to His followers, telling them to make disciples of all nations.
- Appearance 9: 500 People at One Time: In 1 Corinthians 15:6 Paul notes 500 people who saw the risen Jesus as one time. He also notes most of these people were still alive when he wrote to the Corinthians believers about 20 years later.
- Appearance 10: James: In 1 Corinthians 15:7, Paul also records Jesus appearing to James, the brother of Jesus. This helps explain why James served as a leader in the early Jerusalem Church (Acts 15) and would be responsible for writing the letter of James. His brother Jude would also become a follower of Christ and write the letter bearing his name.
- Appearance 11: The 11 Apostles: Acts 1:4-9 records the ascension of Jesus 40 days after the resurrection. This would have been 10 days before Pentecost (Acts 2). Some believe Matthew 28:16-20 records the same event, though this is uncertain.
- Appearance 12: The Apostle Paul: Both Acts 9 and 1 Corinthians 15:8 note Jesus appearing to Paul (then Saul) on the road to Damascus. Though outside of the 40 days following the resurrection of Jesus, it was clearly Jesus (Acts 9:5). Paul called himself one “abnormally born” in connection with this event. Because some interpreters do not include this appearance with the others and consider appearances 8 and 11 as the same event, others count 10 resurrection appearances of Jesus.
4-16-22, The annual celebration of the Lord Jesus death and resurrection is tomorrow - we call it EASTER. The testimonials from His apostles describing His crucifixion, burial and glorious resurrection prove it happened.
In the 1700s Matthew Henry said this: “If Christ gave His life a ransom, and had not taken it again, it would not have appeared that His giving it was accepted as satisfaction. The love of Christ will make us to abound in every duty more than anything else." John 20:1-10
In 1 Corinthians 15:13-18 the Apostle Paul said:
“If there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: and if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that He raised up Christ: whom He raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.” https://biblehub.com/commentaries/mhc/john/20.htm

Testimony of Four Apostles of Burial of the Lord Jesus:
- Matthew 27:60 And laid it [Jesus Body] in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the entrance of the tomb and went away.
- Mark 15:46 And Joseph bought a linen shroud, and taking him down, [Jesus off the cross] wrapped him in the linen shroud and laid him in a tomb that had been cut out of the rock. And he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
- Luke 24:12 But Peter rose and ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths by themselves; [Jesus was gone He arose] and he went home marveling at what had happened.
- John 19:38, 20:5 After these things Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away his body. V5 And stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.
Jesus Christ's Resurrection
1"In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. 2And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door and sat upon it. 3His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: 4And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men. 5And the angel answered and said unto the women, 'Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. 6He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. 7And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you'."
Matthew 28:1-7; Psalm 16:1-11; Psalm 49:1-20; Mark 16:1-8; Luke 24:1-12; John 20:1-9)

The Virgin Mary, Jesus Mother, Knew Her Son Was HER Savior
And Mary said, "My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. For He hath regarded the low estate of His handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. For He that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is His name. And His mercy is on them that fear Him from generation to generation. He hath shewed strength with His arm; He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree. He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away. He hath holpen His servant Israel, in remembrance of His mercy; As He spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever." Luke 1:46-55; 1 Samuel 2:1-11

Risen with Christ
“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.”
| Mark 16:19; Colossians 3:1 4-4-21, The wise believer revels in the fact of Christ’s resurrection. Some things in Scripture may be easier to identify with and apply, including Christ’s substitutionary death, but it is the resurrection that gives us power to live victoriously. “Like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4). We have been “crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed” (Romans 6:6). Nevertheless, we are risen with Him, as our text and elsewhere clearly teaches (Romans 6; Ephesians 2:1-10; etc.). This resurrection is an inward one, of course, but our bodily resurrection is also guaranteed by Christ’s bodily resurrection, should we physically die. “Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus” (2 Corinthians 4:14). | Power to serve Him effectively comes through His resurrection, for we have access to the “exceeding greatness of His power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of His mighty power, Which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead” (Ephesians 1:19-20). We have authority over all human and demonic institutions through Him who even now operates as head of the living church of His born again followers [John 3:3, 7]. Perhaps the most precious of all benefits of the resurrection is that “we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens” who is sympathetic to “the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:14-16). -- John D. Morris, PhD, Source |
