The Easter Miracle
The resurrection of Jesus Christ transformed the tragedy of the cross in to the glorious victory of the church. In the resurrection the divine destiny of mankind, which was designed in the past eternity, has been eternally settled. So when we enunciate the word Easter the spirit of resurrection touches our souls. The sum total of story of the Crucifixion and Easter is nothing but the Lamb turned in to the Lion. (Rev 5:5, 6) Word Easter is used in Germanic languages to denote the festival of the vernal equinox and subsequently, with the coming of Christianity to denote the anniversary of the resurrection of Christ.
The Easter miracle is the heart of the Christian faith. It is like custom stickers on the heart of every Christian. Indeed it is the resurrection which interprets the cross; therefore it has a great impact on disappointed, distracted disciples and followers of Christ. On the other hand it became a tragedy and shame to the Roman government and its people. In fact the dawn of the first Easter was the dawn of Christianity itself. Christian faith is the resurrection faith. Christian theism is resurrection theism.
The resurrection power of Jesus Christ has been invading mankind by the divine love of Christ from the first Easter down to the 21st century and it will continue till He comes again.
The resurrection proves that the scandal of the cross really is God’s saving deal. Christological considered that the resurrection established Jesus as the Son of God. So Easter is an integral part of the whole redemptive process.
