Death has been called "the great equalizer" because it affects everyone. Physically that may be true but spiritually it is not. Because of Jesus rising from the grave, we live. As we approach Easter Sunday, we think about the cross and everything it means. It means sacrifice. It means death. True. But it also means freedom! It means love! It means life! We have life because Jesus died on the cross and then, three days later, He rose again! And through His resurrection, sin's power over us is broken and we "Break Free From Death."

Romans 6:5-11; Easter Sunday.
