The Day Satan Got Played - Resurrection Sunday Message

1 Cor 2:8 tells us that Satan would have never crucified Jesus if he had known that is was would be through his death that God would make a way to reunite himself with mankind. Jesus came to give us life to give us the opportunity to be one with God through him. Jesus also came to make us whole to restore true joy and peace to those who would accept him as savior. Jesus is now sitting by his father but he has sent the Holy Spirit to live in us in our heart and guide us to righteousness. The Holy Spirit is our guide to spiritual growth but he is also our direct link to God and Jesus. All this was made possible to us through the cross and it was for this that Jesus died, knowing what would be accomplish through his death brought joy to his heart and he therefore willingly laid down his life (Heb 12:2).
