I wish all of you a very Happy
Easter – the day of resurrection of Jesus Christ. In this post I would discuss
the importance of celebrating Easter. The word 'Easter' comes from two old
pagan spring festivals. First is the old European pagan festival of 'Ostara'
that celebrated new life and second is Arabian Sun festival of 'Ishtar'. The
early Christians took over the festivals and turned the pagan festivals of new
life to mean the new life that Jesus gave the world when he rose from the dead.
Unlike Christmas, when Jesus's birth is celebrated, Easter is celebrated around
the same time of year when he was crucified.
Jesus was crucified on Friday which
is celebrated as “Good Friday” or “Holy Friday” because He promised that he
will come back after three days and that is why it is called as Good Friday
because it is believed that Jesus has taken our sins on Him and died to
resurrect on Sunday which is celebrated as Easter Sunday. The three days are
known by the Church as the Easter Triduum.
The most important fact of Easter
Sunday is that it celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus was
transformed through His sacrifice. He paid the price for this sacrifice at the
cross. The spiritual significance is that you will have to accept death to be
reborn and transformed. Bible says at the time of resurrection of Jesus Christ,
women went to the tomb where Jesus was kept and when they opened it, it was
found empty. Jesus appeared on the third day before His disciples and disciples
found that all His wounds have been healed. That is why I called it as the time
when Jesus begat Himself. His first birth was from his father and mother. It
was the birth of body but when he resurrected, He gave birth to himself. He
died to end all associations with the past and now He has come back again to
bless us and for our better future.
Some people wonder why Easter is
associated with Eggs. Easter eggs are common during the season of Easter.
Chocolate eggs are wrapped in colorful foil and filled with chocolates. Eggs
are the symbol of new life and fertility and it helped people in remembering
Jesus resurrection. They symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus from which Jesus
resurrected.
Wishing U a Very "HAPPY
EASTER"
With Love And Best Wishes..
May That EASTER Day Brings
LOT of Happiness and JOYS in ur
LIFE.
May u Live Long LIFE...
And That EASTER day Will comes in UR
life Hundred Times...
