20 1 Priestly Ponderings Dates for Your Diary Easter was early this year, so by the time you read this, Easter will have come and gone. During the weeks of April we will be reading Acts of the Apostles and learn- ing about all their activities. We can only imagine how terrible the disciples must April !st Easter Breakfast Hemingby VH 8.30-10.30am have felt and how scared, having watched the death of the person who had given them so much love, support and guidance. How shocked they were to find that Jesus was no longer in the grave. All that he had told them had come true - but Egg Hunt Hemingby VH 10am how could they understand this? It would have been easy for them to dwell only on the cross and the death of Christ. But the most important aspect of the events for them and for us is Christ’s Resurrection. He is risen indeed, Alleluia! April 7th Spring Flower Show Hemingby VH 3pm
So what is significant about the resurrection? When Jesus died for us, he took on our sins. For a moment he was in despair, he cried, ‘my God my God why have you forsaken me?’ before he died. Then 3 days later he rose, and we are reminded of April 19th Group AGM Baumber VH 7pm this in the words we use in the Nicene Creed. ‘On the third day he rose again according to the scriptures’. April 23rd Fashion Show Hemingby VH 8pm The death and resurrection of Jesus are the most important events in Christian The- ology. They form the point in scripture where Jesus gives his ultimate demonstra- tion that he has power over life and death, and therefore he has the ability to grant April 28th Quiz Night Hemingby VH 7pm people eternal life
The teachings of the apostle Paul formed a key element of the Christian tradition April 29th Wind in the Willows Hemingby VH 7.30pm and theology. If Christ’s death stands at the centre of Paul's theology, so does the resurrection: unless the one died the death of all, the all would have little to cele- brate in the resurrection of the one. Paul ( Romans 1:4)taught that, just as Chris- May 13th Bake Off Belchford 10am-2pm tians share in Jesus' death in baptism, so they will share in his resurrection, for Jesus was designated the Son of God by his resurrection.
It is hard for some people to believe this but Christ really has been raised from the May 19th Nordic Bloc Hemingby VH 7,30pm dead. He is the first of all those who will rise. Death came because of what a man did. Rising from the dead also comes because of what a man did. Because of Adam, all people die. So because of Christ, all will be made alive (1 Corinthians 15:20–22). June 17th Sunday Lunch Hemingby VH 1.30pm And what about those appearances? Earlier in chapter 15 of 1 Corinthians, Paul says that Jesus appeared to Peter, to the twelve, and to 500 men and women at the same time! Can you imagine that 500 people would all get together to lie about July 1st Tractor Event &Flower Festival Belchford Jesus’ appearance? Can you imagine that these people would be willing to suffer and die for such a lie? Because, being put to death for belief was the danger of the time.
It is important for us to reflect on this for our future, as it is vital for our faith. We Bread Making Hemingby VH Sew Lovely Hemingby VH can know through Christ’s sacrifice, not only do we share in Jesus’ death in baptism but we will share in his resurrection. For Jesus was chosen to be the Son of God 9am –12am by his resurrection. And all this gives us hope for our future and for the future of 9.30am—12.30pm the people we love and lose. 14th May Contact Di 27thMarch Contact Marie This truth is the bedrock of the Christian faith. Without it, there would be no New 11th June Testament, no church, no Christianity. 01507 579695 4th April 01507 578345 Whether you find it difficult to believe in the resurrection or not, it makes no differ- 16th July 18th April ence concerning the facts.
