The grace of God is greater than all our sins.

We honor the God who made us when we treat our bodies, souls, and consciences with his care.

God’s resurrection promises of loved ones’ security in heaven until our eternal reunion can provide profound comfort.

God’s glory is revealed in the eternal peace that Jesus won.

Christ’s love makes us want to do his work, and his resurrection power in us makes that possible. 

When we grasp nothing but the empty cross as the basis of our standing before God, then those empty hands are filled the grace to love, and live for, him. 

Good Friday is not the end of Jesus’ story.

God’s plan will continue to unfold until all the works of the devil are destroyed.

The gospel assures us of that the infinitely holy and able God lifts us to himself “because of his own purpose and grace.”
