Volume 2
April 22, 2011

Hello,
The celebration of the most important day of ALL of history since the creation of humanity is upon us . . . the day that totally remedied what happened with our original ancestors!

Do you realize that the great sin of Adam and Eve was not to eat the fruit forbidden by God for them to eat?  Nor was it that they hid themselves from the Father of Love Who had created them; it was not even the "blame game" that was initiated when the first humans were confronted by their Creator regarding their disobedience!

The great sin of Adam and Eve was that they chose to listen to and follow the leadership of someone other than God!  That great sin led to everything else that took place that day ... and it remains the great sin that leads people to the horrible destructions of sin, the worst of which is to spend an everlasting existence in the lake of fire created for the devil and his angels!

The resurrection of Jesus is the proof that God has provided the remedy for the problem of the "great sin" we are all guilty of and is the proof that God is able to redeem any person from the bondage of being held slave to sin!

The resurrection of Christ Jesus is absolute assurance that no person is hopelessly bound for that lake of fire but has an invitation to an everlasting reality of joy! 

Many Blessings be upon you as you honor Christ Jesus the King this Resurrection Day!

TRUE HOPE TIMES

From Dr. Timothy



While the birth of Christ Jesus is perhaps the most popular of Christian celebrations and while that holiday receives the greatest attention and every year "Christmas" is a months long focus in so many ways - shopping, party planning, advertising, etc. there is a truth that is often neglected, even forgotten!
The truth of the matter is that ultimate purpose of the birth of Christ was HIS DEATH!
And then, His death would serve absolutely no purpose whatsoever without His resurrection from the grave!  All of this culminated with the angels at the empty tomb declaring . . .

The Seven Most Powerful Words Ever Spoken!
HE IS NOT HERE, BUT IS RISEN!

With these words, mankind was forever changed!

With these words, the course of humanity was eternally altered!


These seven words, which takes but a second to breathe, once and for all ages established the fact that Jesus is the resurrection and the life and all who believe in Him shall not perish but be alive forevermore!

HALLELUJAH!

With these seven words Heaven became more than wishful thinking ...
... Heaven became our assured destination for faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord!


We celebrate THE RESURRECTION once a year (Easter) celebrating God's love which He proved through His Son, Jesus the Christ!


Millions of men perished by the cross ... so the death of Jesus proves nothing without the resurrection!

Now, yes, the death of Christ established the atonement for our sins, but the end result of that atonement - - our eternity - - was forever guaranteed by God physically raising Jesus from the dead!


With the resurrection His death proves that "God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son ..."


The resurrection proves the rest of that favorite passage: "... that whosoever believes on Him shall not perish but have everlasting life!"

With these seven words, we are made able to believe and have faith in God's plan of salvation and we are set free from the bondage of vainly working to earn what only God can give ... our salvation for all eternity!

"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God."

(1 Peter 1:18-21 KJV)
"He is not here, but is risen!" These seven words are the ultimate and final proof of the message and ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ!

Without these seven words, we can have no faith and are left without any true hope. But by these seven words our faith and hope and assurance are eternally established!

The result of these seven words is the choice of each person who ever hears them and that choice is this:  What choice will you make based on the resurrection of Jesus the Christ?

Will you now call upon Him and elect Him to be the Lord of your life and receive His gift of everlasting life by being born again?

Or will you choose to pass the opportunity and reject the promise of life everlasting that His resurrection has secured for all who will choose to accept it?

Choose LIFE and LIVE! 

With Love,
Dr. Timothy
