Easter

“Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen”

"The simple words—‘He is not here, but is risen’—have become the most profound in all literature.  They are the declaration of the empty tomb.  They are the fulfillment of all He had spoken concerning rising again.  They are the triumphant response to the query facing every man, woman, and child who is ever born to earth.

Thanks be to the Almightly.  His glorified Son broke the bonds of death, the greatest of all victories.  As Paul declared, ‘For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive”  (1 Cor. 15:22)

He is our triumphant Lord.  He is our Redeemer, who atoned for our sins.  Through His redeeming sacrifice all men shall rise from the grave.  He has opened the way whereby we may gain not only immortality but also eternal life."  --Gordon B. Hinckley
