“The Trashman” John 1:29; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21

Message by Pastor Walt Jones

This morning, we once again experience both the opportunity and the privilege that is ours as believers in Christ to share in a time of communion as we come to the Table of the Lord. In our meditation this morning entitled, “The Trashman” we come to see and understand the magnitude of the action of Christ on our behalf from a slightly different perspective. There are so many different things that seek to weigh us down in life and keep us from experiencing the joy of the Lord that He intends for us. The Apostle Paul was absolutely right when he reminded us that “If anyone is in Christ, he or she is a new creation… [2 Cor. 5:17] The old ways, the old lifestyle has been removed… and a new life has come. As we each come to the Table this morning, may we come secure in the knowledge that Christ has taken away our sin and forever bridged the gap between us and the Father.

“Empty” Matthew 28:1-15

We gather this morning to remember and celebrate the “watershed mark of all history.” Resurrection Sunday marks the end of death’s grip and the beginning of hope for every man, woman and child who believes.

In “Empty…” based on the words of Matthew 28, we pause and celebrate the life and hope that is ours as Christian Believers. Easter gives us hope. Easter gives us something to look forward to in each of our lives.

For the truth of God’s Word this Easter morning is that “Resurrection transforms crucifixion. Resurrection transforms life.”

As we gather this morning, we gladly shout with believers through the ages: “Christ is Risen! He is risen, indeed!”
