‘He is Risen’

“I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he dies, yet shall he live, and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die” (John11:25-26).

Stories of hope do not seem to get the same level of attention as those that focus on what is terrible in the world.

Easter is a powerful story of hope.

Jesus is not here, He is Risen!

The empty tomb is a sign of LIFE, HOPE AND LOVE, says World Council of Churches General Secretary Rev. Prof. Dr Jerry Pillay in his 2024 Easter Message. 

"...In every situation of suffering and death today let us be reminded that the Risen Lord brings us life, hope, and love." 

Christ makes all things new

World Council of Churches general secretary Rev. Prof. Dr Jerry Pillay shares an Easter message of hope and renewal, reflecting on the moment when Jesus Christ, on the cross cries: “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

“Do not let your hearts be troubled.

You believe in God, believe also in me 

(John 14:1 NIV).
