He has risen. But, has he truly risen in you?

Greetings once again. May we again take this opportunity to wish

you a wonderful and Blessed Easter.

Did you know that many of the early Christians used to go around
 on Easter Sunday and greet all they met with, in Greek of course
 not English, “He has risen”, and the response to that, if you were a 
fellow Christian was, “He has Indeed!” (Again in Greek!)
 While at an Easter conference in the old Transkei  area of South 
Africa, (Nelson Mandela’s Homeland,) one year, I shared that item
 with the church people one Easter Sunday morning. That morning, 
and for many Easters after, I was greeted with a chorus of “Vukile”, 
which is the Xhosa way of saying, “He has risen”.
 Well today it is Easter Sunday 2007 and we are back in Australia 
again and you are where God has placed you too. The question is, 
can you from the bottom of your heart with genuine sincerity join us 
in saying Christ has risen in my heart and life too. Can you? 
 He has indeed risen here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Remember:

His destiny was the Cross

His purpose was Love

His reason was YOU
