It's Not About Bunnies And Candy

Is. 53:4,5 - Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him. And by His stripes we are healed. - The commercialization of Easter has dulled us to the true meaning of the extreme price that was paid for our redemption. The innocent Lamb of God became sin for you and I. He willingly subjected Himself to the horrors of the cross for us. He paid the ultimate price so that you and I can be healed in our body, free in our minds, have peace, and become a new creation through salvation. The Bible tells us that He was so marred by the wounds He suffered that He was unrecognizable. Let's never forget the innocent blood that was shed on Calvary's tree. He did it for you and me!
