Mark 16 (excerpts)
Jesus Has Risen
1 When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. ...“Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?”
4 But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. 5 As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.
6 “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. 7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.’”
14 Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.
15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.”
19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. 20 Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it.

Glory to GOD!
Jesus has risen!
May we all delight ourselves in this beautiful song (".)--
This song is the best exemplification of the culminating chapter in the Book of Mark. Our Loving Lord, our Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer has conquered sin and death.....and now He is alive, He is risen, and He is seated on the right hand of God the Father.
As Believers, undoubtedly we have embraced this truth and belief through faith. It is in this hope that Jesus, our Loving Savior, is now in Heaven preparing our place in His Kingdom.
And this I will cling to with all of my heart until I die-
"That I have eternal life, an everlasting, unending, endless life with God because I have received Jesus wholeheartedly; that even if I die, I will still live because I have God and I will be with Him in Heaven; and if the end of times come,- I will be part of the great multitudes in white robes (Revelation 7) whom God had made clean and perfect and had been given glorified bodies."
No one can question my faith nor belief. It is between my God and I.
How about you? What do you believe in?
GOD bless to all (".)
