There is one hymn we sing every Easter at church without fail. I'm really looking forward to church as this is one of my very favorites. It is best sung accompanied by the sound of a great pipe organ.


"I Know that My Redeemer Lives"

I know that my Redeemer lives;
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my ever living Head.

He lives triumphant from the grave,
He lives eternally to save,
He lives all glorious in the sky,
He lives exalted there on high.

He lives to grant me rich supply,
He lives to guide me with His eye,
He lives to comfort me when faint,
He lives to hear my soul’s complaint.

He lives to silence all my fears,
He lives to wipe away my tears
He lives to calm my troubled heart,
He lives all blessings to impart.

He lives to bless me with His love,
He lives to plead for me above.
He lives my hungry soul to feed,
He lives to help in time of need.

He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly Friend,
He lives and loves me to the end;
He lives, and while He lives, I’ll sing;
He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King.

He lives and grants me daily breath;
He lives, and I shall conquer death:
He lives my mansion to prepare;
He lives to bring me safely there.

He lives, all glory to His Name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same.
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
I know that my Redeemer lives!

Happy Easter, everyone!
 
Is this the jew zombie celebration page? :confused:

Hey, be nice. They were nice enough to keep a pagan fertility festival instead of killing everyone who celebrated it. Assimilation is nicer then assassination... and it's really just about as nice as they get.
 
I know one day you'll wake up and smell the mythology, Chey, but until then...

Happy Easter. :)

Any holiday that creates an excuse to eat egg-shaped chocolate can't be all bad.

Right. Bunny Jesus. So, who do you think would win in a fight? Jesus or the Easter Bunny? Everyone acts like Jesus isn't all badass, but isn't he supposed to fight the anti-christ to the death with a metal-as-fuck flaming sword (the same one that was supposed to guard the garden of Eden)? I mean, he could kick a rabbit's ass, if he wanted to. He's just cool like that. He lets them live. And in return, I think he gets an Easter basket... or... something. I never really understood how that worked.

I can't talk to my ex tonight because he's gonna be doing the music for an Easter play tomorrow for the young 'uns. Isn't that all kinds of adorable?

Edit: After I posted this, I got the stigmata. I looked down and my side was bleeding. My shirt was all bloody. I'm like WTF!? I seriously still don't know. There's a big scratch there, but there's no reason for it. I did nothing. And that was my pikachu shirt- I've had this shirt since I was like... 10 or some shit. Seriously, WTF? I am very uncomfortable with this.

We bought Easter chicks, but only for the eggs.

Today the ladies non-religious church group will be talked to by an Atheist.

They thought that that would be the hook to get me to go with them, but as we all know, most Atheists are absolute fucking idiots on a mission to convert and convince themselves of their own fawkin' superiority, take Dixon, for example...



My peeps say wazzup? Will there be Tebowing?
 
Thank you! Our seder was... the lamb was a little dry, but enhhh...! The readings were beautiful and Googie, once again, spiked the Haroset so that the little ones couldn't stop giggling by the last prayer. Never gets old! You should have seen the Miller's daughter! She's uhhhh... Little Shermie should have been here! Kids!
 
I like the oldies.

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee;
let the water and the blood,
from thy wounded side which flowed,
be of sin the double cure;
save from wrath and make me pure.

2. Not the labors of my hands
can fulfill thy law's commands;
could my zeal no respite know,
could my tears forever flow,
all for sin could not atone;
thou must save, and thou alone.

3. Nothing in my hand I bring,
simply to the cross I cling;
naked, come to thee for dress;
helpless, look to thee for grace;
foul, I to the fountain fly;
wash me, Savior, or I die.

4. While I draw this fleeting breath,
when mine eyes shall close in death,
when I soar to worlds unknown,
see thee on thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee.
 
Easter is cool. It pisses off the anti-religion bigots. :)

Happy Easter!

I think you're thinking of Christmas...

I'm sad. We're doing nothing today. My little brother, the youngest, is almost 13, so he's way past the point of believing in giant, egg-hiding bunnies. I love watching little kids celebrate holidays. I wish I could watch someone egg hunt and enjoy it. It just hasn't been the same since papaw died, he was the one who always the thing fun.
 
Easter is alive and well in Dubai.

Dubai for a Muslim nation is very tolerant of other religions and goes out of its way to accommodate Christians. The malls are decorated. Easter Bunnies are everywhere entertaining the children . Running around in a white fur suit is a real bitch in 90 degree weather.

Happy Easter
 
Thread like this make me laugh at the atheist who try so hard to be cool and fail.
 
I need no further proof of His gracious and glorious existence...

...than the longing of my lips to lovingly worship that gorgeous girl's butt He perfectly created.

~ Amen ~
