Project Details

There would be no Easter, no spring, no hope if it were not for Jesus; for God's gift of His only eternally begotten Son, creator of heaven and earth and Savior of all of those who will turn to Him in faith! Fully God and fully man, he fulfilled every dot and tittle of the law doing what our forefather Adam (and every one of us since) failed to do: living a life of perfect obedience to His Father. And. . then the sinless, perfect One paid the penalty that was our due, enduring on the cross the Father's wrath: the just for the unjust; and died. But He is not dead, He is risen!! Death could not hold the sinless Son of God, and on the third day, He rose victorious over sin and death, proving that He was exactly who He said He was. . .and that He did exactly what He came to do. . .and by His stripes we are healed. He bore the sins of His people, and in exchange gives all those who will call upon Him, His perfect righteousness. Our sin soiled rages of scarlet, for His pure and radiant robe of righteousness!Amazing love, how can it be. . .

And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Savior’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain?
For me, who Him to death pursued?

He left His Father’s throne above,
So free, so infinite His grace;
Emptied Himself of all but love,
And bled for Adam’s helpless race:
’Tis mercy all, immense and free;
For, O my God, it found out me.
