From the Desk of | General Manager, Tim Veurink

The words in the graphic are from Peter's brief Sermon in Jerusalem

just 7 weeks after Jesus had resurrected from the dead. 

After Jesus' resurrection on Easter Sunday, Jesus spends 40 days moving

around Israel. There are 12 appearances of Jesus recorded in the New

Testament to over 500 people. Peter, himself, witness' Jesus living in the

flesh at least 6 times with one very special and detailed conversation, at a

fish fry as recorded in John 21.  

After 40 days, the disciples witness Jesus ascending to heaven to sit on the

right hand of His Father.

The seventh Sunday after Jesus resurrection was Pentecost and as promised

the disciples received the Holy Spirit. 

Prompted by the Spirit, Peter is embolden to preach a brief but powerful

sermon. (Acts 2:14-41). There is so much that I love about this sermon but

the one thing I find both powerful and  hopeful is this...

The sermon was preached in Jerusalem 7 weeks after Jesus' death, and resurrection by Peter who witnesses seeing Jesus in the flesh at least 6 times after the

resurrection. The sermon being preached in Jerusalem, is the same town were

Jesus hung on the cross and was put into the tomb. However, the tomb was empty

because Jesus had risen and was not there. 

At this time Jerusalem wasn't that big; both the cross and the tomb where more than likely just a very short distance from were Peter was preaching. Anyone could walk over 

to see the empty tomb. With the bloody cross and the empty tomb...you can come

to your own conclusion on what happened on that Easter weekend. 

After Peter's sermon, 3000 people were convicted by the Holy Spirit and put

their trust in the resurrected Jesus. A few days later 2000 more people

believed and then the Christian movement spread like wildfire. 

Since that day, billions have put their trust and hope in Jesus Christ 

- the resurrected Savior of the world.  

Today, we celebrate a resurrected Savior. Today we have nothing to fear for

the Bible says for those who put their trust in Jesus Christ will be saved

and one day be resurrected from the dead just as Jesus was raised up. 

Happy Easter,

Tim Veurink
