Transcript of He is Risen: The End and the Beginning

The End and the BeginningApril 4, 2010

Brothers and sisters: If then you were raised with Christ, seek what is above,

where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Think of what is above, not of

what is on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

12th Century San Clemente

He who as without Flesh took on Flesh.He who was begotten before time was born

in time.He who deserved no punishment was

crucified on a Cross.But the Cross of Death becomes the Cross

of Life .Adam’s Tree of Life brought forth Death.But Jesus’ Tree of Death brings forth Life.

Bondage turns to Freedom.The Spiritually Lame walk.

The cursed are blessed.The Unreconciled are Reconciled.

Jesus the captive becomes Jesus the King.The Old is put away for the New.The End becomes the Beginning!
