Easter is one of the important Christian festivals, observed with fun and
religious fervor by people following Christianity. In many parts of the world,
special church services are organized throughout the holiday season of Easter.
For instance, in Greece, it is a fifty-day event, while the festivities are
confined to two days, in Hungary. The traditions also vary from region to
region, depending upon the lifestyle and culture. Nonetheless, the thought in
the minds of the devotees of Lord Jesus Christ remains the same - to invoke the
almighty and seek his blessings. For the purposes, biblical verses are narrated
by the clergyman in many churches, on Easter. In the article, we have made a
compilation of some of the popular bible verses on Easter.

Verse About Jesus Christ
Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we
know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no
longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but
the life he lives, he lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to
sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
- Romans 6:8-11(NIV)
Verse About Jesus Christ
And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At
that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The
earth shook and the rocks split. The tombs broke open and the bodies of many
holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs, and
after Jesus' Resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many
people. |
