The author S. Lewis Johnson was once quoted as saying that "the resurrection is God's Amen! To Christ's statement, "it is finished." The resurrection of Jesus is God's validation to the world that His Son had fully accomplished the work He sent Him to do.
And what was that work which Jesus came to do? One thing: in Jesus' own words, "to give His life as a ransom for many" (Matthew 20:28). Jesus' work at the cross was the greatest accomplishment in human history. It was at the cross that Jesus sacrificially took our place. It was at the cross that Jesus took our punishment so that we might receive God's mercy. For it was at the cross that "the Lord laid on Him iniquity of us all" (Isaiah 53:6).
So when Jesus declared from the cross, "It is finished," He was signifying that His sacrificial work of redemption was complete. The penalty for sin for all people for all time was fully paid.
This is why the Bible tells us " there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1). We are free to go. No penalty for us. Case dismissed. Jesus our Substitute stood in for us at the cross so that we could stand with Him in heaven. Our Easter hope resides in this--that Christ's accomplishment at the cross, validated by the Father's raising of His Son from the dead, holds out to us the promise that by so doing He is "bringing many sons to glory" (Hebrews 2:10). The glory of the resurrected Christ will be shared by all His faithful followers. God has promised us this by the "Amen" of His Son's resurrection. What a wonderful hope we have!
For Him,
Dan

Dear Friends at West Side,
Thank you for your recent gift towards your campaign commitment of $25,000. Our records show that your contributions to date have been $13,815.99. Because of friends like you, the vision of the new facilities for Mid-India Christian Services, Bethlehem is becoming a reality. I praise the Lord each day that He has provided friends with the resources and they have chose to be stewards toward the success of the "Building For Eternity In India" campaign.
The campaign is going well and we are confident we will reach our goal of $650,000. To date we have received commitments for $630,254. The Pendra project was completed last month, construction is ready to begin in another area and improvements to the electric service at Bethlehem College Campus have been made. We have also made repairs to the men's dorm at the Bible College. These projects are made possible by our friends, like you, who are faithfully fulfilling their commitments.
You can be sure that Mid-India Christian Services, Bethlehem is having a positive impact in the lives of families and that is taking place in part because good friends have decided to take an active role in the ministry.
Thanks again for being such a good friend!
Sincerely, Becky Conover...... (Campaign Treasurer for Jay Henry)
