Remember what Jesus did on the cross- On every Easter
JESUS CARRIED THE SINS OF THE ENTIRE HUMANITY ON THE CROSS
Sweden is a secular country, with many people not interested in Yeshua/Jesus, but sees him as an imaginary person like Santa Claus and Easter Bunny. There are strongholds of pride, atheism and fear that I need help from other Christians to pray against both in here and in other countries.
When you go to a shop, you see lots of chickens, chocolate eggs, even witches on broomsticks, but you see very little crosses, pictures of Jesus and Jesus DVD:s on sale that would remind of what Jesus did for us on the cross.
What he did, was because he loved you and me, like his father and the holy spirit, he offered to carry ALL of our sins on the cross, all failures, all pains, all poverties, all rejections, all diseases, all curses, everything. It was horrible for him to do that, because it was the sins of the entire humanity he carried on his shoulders. This way we can be forgiven for all our sins, healed from all diseases, delivered from all curses and everything that comes with the sinful nature and the fall of man.
That doesnt mean life will be with no persecutions, no tests or trials of fire, but it does mean no matter what you go throught, you have God with you, and he sees everything, hears everything, and will hold all evil people who did not repent accountable for what they did on judgement day.
He will by the way meet us all and go throught our lives together with him, even Christians. But he hopes that of course as many as possible will accept him as a Savior, so they don't have to be forever separated from him, why we Christians must remember to forgive our offenders and pray for their salvation. Because Jesus/Yeshua can make a wonderful person out of a wicked one. And there is nothing as sad for him, as to hear the cries of souls in hell begging him for five more minutes on earth so they can fix things in order, knowing it is too late. Jesus/Yeshua has a lot of children on earth, that his heart misses and he longs for them to come to him. And the ones who are lost forever, he griefs for them too. Simply because they did not listen no matter how he tried to reach them.
Trust me when I say, Jesus wants ALL people to come to heaven. But he knows there always will be some, who say no. So please don't be one of them, just go to him! say to him Jesus come to my heart, I want you as a Lord and a Savior! then try to find a good church, and ask him to guide you where you can go to an Alpha course and learn more and find a good community. And be willing to let Jesus/Yeshua use you to reach others. We are meant to be soul winners not bench warmers, and God can open doors for his use amongs the people he has placed in your life, and help you to grow bold and daring.
I have just finished watching Mel Gibsons Passion of The Christ, it is a movie I reckomend and powerfully describes what price Jesus payed for our salvation. Here is the trailer:

I saw this movie at the theaters when I was 20, year 2004. And it is a movie I watch on every easter. It never ceases to be powerful and moving!
So please don't forget that Easter is not all about chocolate eggs and easter bunnies, there is someone more powerful than anyone else in the universe who should be remembered on Easter, and that is the creater of the entire universe and Savior of all souls, Yeshua Hamaschiach/ Jesus Christ.
I end with some well known bible quotes:
John 10:11-17. Jesus words:
I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. The hired hand is not the shepherd , and the sheep are not his own. When he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf pounces on them and scatters the flock. The man runs away because he is a hired servant and is unconcerned for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd. I know My sheep and my sheep know Me, just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep. I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them in as well, and they will listen to My voice. Then there will be one flock and one shepherd. The reason the Father loves Me is that I lay down my life in order to take it up again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of My own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from My Father.
And a prophecy from the Old Testament. Psalm 40:6-8: Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but my ears you have opened, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require. Then I said: here I am, I have come, it is written about me in the scroll. I desire to do your will my God, your law is within my heart".
