I ask the question: What is the significance and/or the importance-of the Eastern Season...? In some circles of the secular and the faith world-there still exist some clouded views and a bit of confusion. Let me begin with this statement: In the faith-based community since ancient times their particular views has it's origin in 'Biblical Scriptural Genre'. It has a great deal to do with the "Cross Experience' that was model by Jesus Christ himself during his earthly sojourn.
~He came into the world a with purpose ordained by the Father
~For over thirty years his activities were ever present; as evidenced by a platitude of; and an enormity of signs, wonders and miracles.
~Such as, the selection and mentoring of the twelve disciples-who were eye witnesses to many incidents; and had first hand encounters and could provide critical corroborated testimony to tried and prove "truth-of-the-facts" performed by Jesus.
~To name a few: his teachings, sharing and demonstrations of blessings and woes, the importance of love your enemy, calming the storm, healing the afflicted, raising of the dead, confessions and forgiveness, parable of mustard seed faith, fore-telling of betrayal, denial and doubting.
~Ultimate the occasions of prayer without ceasing, the last supper, the seven last words, his death, burial and resurrection-He's Alive!
Yes Jesus died for our sins-but we still yet experience...i.e. transgression-we still yet sins. Meaning: {transgress} we slip, we fall, we fail, we trespass. Meaning: {sins} we misunderstand, we miss the message, we miss the mark, we fall short} Is there a way out? Yes! Just remember the cross experience...
Therefore, Happy Resurrection Day, is the order and the way-today.
We should be appreciative-spiritual duty bound and happy to give all praises, honor and Glory! To The Trinity {Father,Son & Holy Spirit}
To practice the presence of the Lord is the ultimate 'front-of-mind-consciousness' thought process.
Foremost, during the process of the Easter Season-The Celebration of the Resurrection-we must be steadfast in our efforts-of-faith to the community, church, family, relative and friends.
Know This: The celebration of the Easter Season is more than about Shopping, Easter Egg Hunts, or the Parade of Spring Fashions on display for all to see.
But should be more about, How we walk in love, agree in heart, fast in faith, and unite in fervent, affective and persistent prayer. We do so to effect change to change,diminish, or end suffering and injustice in the country, nation and the world.
In conclusion, we reflect on the many martyrs. Jesus being chief and most divine among them all
