We have journeyed from Ash Wednesday in this Lenten Season and Resurrection Sunday comes this weekend after Good Friday with the death and burial of Jesus.
We celebrate remembering that the Old Testament prophecies being fulfilled in the New Testament and Christ saying that He would rise again. Jesus is the Lord Almighty – Yahweh-Sabaoth. God was revealed to Moses as the “I Am who I Am.”
Jesus uses the “I Am” statements to let the world know that He is…
The Bread of Life, The Light of the World,
The Gate for the Sheep, The Good Shepherd,
The Resurrection and the Life,
The Way, the Truth, and the Life,
The True Vine.
Jesus goes on to say ”I Am he,” multiple times when confronted by the Pharisees and the leading priests along with Judas before Jesus’ Trial and Crucifixion.
This Sunday our church will join with others around the world as we worship and celebrate the One who Lives, after being resurrected from the dead!
Our services will include special CBC traditions and outstanding music from the music department. The sermon will continue in the “What’s In A Name” series and Jesus’ statement, “I Am – The Resurrection and the Life” from John 11:25-27 and John 20:1-10.
Come and let us worship together, both in person or online, as we sing songs of Jesus victory over death.
