    HOMILY: "From the Cross to the Empty Tomb"

    Text: Romans 5:8 (NIV) – “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

    INTRODUCTION

    Why do Christians gather on Good Friday with such solemn hearts, only to celebrate with joy just two days later on Easter Sunday? At the center of it all is Jesus—His death, His burial, and His resurrection. This is more than just a story we tell once a year—it’s the very heart of the Gospel. Good Friday and Easter are not just holy days—they are the reason we have hope, peace, and eternal life.

    POINT 1 – Good Friday Shows the Depth of God’s Love

    On Good Friday, we remember the brutal death of Jesus on the cross. It wasn’t just a tragic execution—it was a divine act of love. Jesus willingly took our place. The wrath of God against sin was poured out—not on us—but on His perfect Son.

    This was no accident. It was God’s plan from the beginning. Isaiah 53:5 says, “He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities…” On the cross, Jesus paid a debt we could never afford. Good Friday reminds us: we are more sinful than we’d ever dare admit, but more loved than we’d ever dare hope.

    POINT 2 – Easter Confirms the Power of God's Victory

    But the story didn’t end in the grave. On Easter morning, the stone was rolled away—not to let Jesus out, but to show the world that He had risen. The resurrection is proof that Jesus really is who He said He is—the Son of God, the Savior of the world.

    If Jesus stayed dead, our faith would be empty. But because He rose, we know that sin, death, and hell have been defeated. As Paul said in 1 Corinthians 15:17, “If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.” But thank God—He has been raised!

    POINT 3 – We Celebrate Because This Changes Everything

    Good Friday and Easter are not just events we remember—they are truths we live by. Because of the cross, we are forgiven. Because of the empty tomb, we are free. The resurrection assures us that death is not the end. There is hope for the future and power for today.

    This isn’t just theology—it’s transformation. Because He lives, we can face whatever comes. We celebrate Easter because Jesus’ resurrection is the guarantee of our resurrection. He opened the door to eternal life, and now nothing—not even death—can separate us from God’s love.

    CONCLUSION

    So this week, let’s approach Good Friday with humble hearts and Easter Sunday with joyful praise. The cross shows us God's love. The empty tomb shows us God’s power. Together, they show us God’s plan—to rescue and redeem a world lost in sin.

    Let’s never grow tired of this story—it’s the greatest one ever told. And it’s not over yet. One day, the risen Christ will return, and every knee will bow. Until then, we live in the light of the cross and the power of the resurrection.

  • Serving God When Times Are Good (Ep 10)

    Serving God When Times Are Good (Ep 10)
    Jan 24 2025
    Please visit our ministry websites: For a copy of a First Responders Bible | https://firstrespondersbible.org/ Submit Your Prayer Requests Here: https://prayforfirstresponders.org/ Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FirstRespondersBible/ Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@FirstRespondersBible Email: joey@FirstRespondersBible.org Transcript: "Serving God When Times Are Good" Welcome in…and I’m glad you’re here today because we’re diving into a topic that doesn’t always get enough attention—**serving God when things are going well**. Have you ever thought about If you’re listening today and life feels pretty good—work is steady, family is healthy, you’re feeling strong—it might seem like a strange time to talk about your need for God’s grace. But I want to share with you why these good times are **just as important** for deepening your relationship with God as the tough times. In fact, it’s often during our best seasons that we are most at risk of drifting away from our faith. Today, we’re going to look at what the Bible says about seeking God not just when we’re desperate, but when things are just really good!!! Let’s start with a story from the Gospels. In Luke 17:11-19, we read about Jesus healing ten lepers. They all cry out to Jesus, desperate for healing, and He heals them. But here’s the surprising part: only **one** of them comes back to thank Him. The other nine are healed and simply go on with their lives, forgetting the One who gave them that gift of grace. This story serves as a powerful reminder. When we’re in a crisis, it’s easy to turn to God. But when things are going well, when we’re healed, when the crisis has passed, we often forget to come back to God with gratitude. We slip into a mindset of self-reliance, thinking, *“I’ve got this.”* But the truth is, friends, we still need God’s grace just as much when life is great as when life is hard. Deuteronomy 8:10-14 gives us a warning about this very thing. It says: *“When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the Lord your God for the good land He has given you. Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God.”* Did you catch that? *“Be careful.”* When you’re satisfied, when your needs are met, that’s when you’re most likely to forget where your blessings came from. It’s human nature, isn’t it? When the pressure is off, when the storms have passed, we start to coast spiritually. We lean on our own understanding, our own abilities. But God is saying, *“Don’t forget Me.”* It’s a gentle reminder that the same grace that got us through the tough times is the grace that’s sustaining us in the good times. I’ve talked to a lot of first responders who’ve said, “I pray like never before when I’m facing a difficult call or when I’m dealing with a family emergency.” And that’s great—it’s good to turn to God in those moments. But what about when the shifts are calm, when everything at home is going smoothly? It’s easy to put God on the back burner, isn’t it? Proverbs 3:5-6 tells us: *“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.”* Notice it says *“in all your ways.”* Not just when you’re struggling, not just when you’re desperate, but in every part of your life. That includes the good times too. When things are going well, it’s an opportunity to strengthen our relationship with God, to praise Him not because we need something, but because He deserves our worship. Another scripture that speaks to this is James 1:17: *“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights.”* When we’re experiencing blessings, it’s easy to forget that these good things are gifts from God. We might start to think, *“I worked hard for this,”* or *“I deserve this.”* But the Bible reminds us that every blessing, every bit of success, is a gift from God’s hand. Here’s the point…..*“Don’t let the blessings become a distraction from the One who gave them to you.”* When life is good, that’s not the time to become spiritually lazy. It’s the time to press in even more, to build habits of gratitude, and to serve God with a full heart. When you’re on a winning streak, so to speak, take a moment to pause and thank God. Ask Him how you can use this season of abundance to serve Him better. Maybe it’s giving back, maybe it’s deepening your time in prayer and scripture, or maybe it’s simply praising Him for who He is, not just for what He’s done. Friends, if you’re listening today and you’re in a season of blessing, I want to challenge you: **Don’t take this time for granted.** Use it as an opportunity to draw closer to God, not drift away. Remember, it’s His grace that brought you through the hard times, and it’s His grace that’s ...
