Due to the advanced technology that surrounds us, we now know practically everything that is happening in nearly every corner of the earth—and for anyone who has stopped and thought about this, the enormity of it all is terrifying.

Despite all the wars we wage, the elections we hold—the elections that are stolen—the dollars we spend, and the tears we shed, people have been experiencing the loss of hope for such a long time that many have moved from caution to overwhelmed disinterest to depression.
A recent Gallup report stated:
[M]ost people believe we are living in the last days of humanity.
Recent studies from Pew Research and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported:
[E]ven the youngest generations, who have their entire lives to look forward to, are struggling with an unprecedented mental illness epidemic of everything from depression to debilitating anxiety and suicidal ideation.
In recent decades Americans have progressively turned away from Religion in greater and greater numbers. However, perhaps now more so than any other time in our lives we need to be reminded that the only hope for this world and for our individual lives is not found in this world. We need God to enter into our lives with encouragement and hope. And for Christians, we believe in part that this is why Jesus Christ came to earth.
Jesus’ defeat of death shows us what awaits those who follow him in this life, through death and into eternal life.
We each must trust someone, and many of us can easily find we are able to trust Jesus Christ.
Only this long view of life gives us the courage and purpose to live a hope-filled life.
He said six things that no other major leader has ever said.
-
Jesus said he was from heaven and visited the earth. ‘I have come down from heaven’ (John 6:38).
-
Jesus said he alone is the one true God and was killed ‘because you … claim to be God’ (John 10:33). No other religion has its founder declaring himself to be God.
-
Jesus said he alone was completely sinless, inviting anyone to disprove his perfection. ‘Which of you can truthfully accuse me of one single sin?’ (John 8:46)
-
Jesus said that he alone could forgive sin, which puzzled the religious leaders because ‘who can forgive sins but God alone?’ (Mark 2:5, 7-8)
-
Jesus promised to defeat death as proof that he is the only God. ‘He began to tell them about the terrible things he would suffer, and that he would … be killed, and that he would rise again three days afterwards’ (Mark 8:31).
-
Jesus said he is the only way to heaven. ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me’ (John 14:6).
This weekend, the largest and most diverse global movement of any kind in world history will assemble as the church celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ from death.
This Easter, perhaps the best thing each of us can do is attend a local church and learn more about him.
There is hope, his name is Jesus Christ, and daily prayer may very well help deliver our beloved country from the wiles of our enemies. Look at it this way: It can’t hurt.
God speed to Conservatism and God speed to the Take Back of our Constitutional Republic.
