Easter is about life. It would be easy to think about this just in terms of life after death, but it is deeper and more profound than that. Some have made a distinction between “everlasting” life and “eternal” life. The first could be limited in some minds to length of life and the second to the quality of life. The distinction is a bit overdone, but the point is significant. Life in Christ begins in the present, not just after death. We now have the living presence of Christ with us. We are already experiencing the start of the new life in Christ that will realize its complete expression in our life with Christ in glory.Already the power that raised Christ Jesus from the dead is at work in us who are Christ’s followers.We have turned away from sin and death and turned toward life and resurrection in Jesus Christ.Easter is the celebration of what life is and what it will be.Every Sunday we celebrate the first day of the week as a remembrance of Easter and then we live the rest of the week conscious of that relationship with God which we have in Christ.It was Jesus who said, “I am come that they might have life and have it abundantly!”
