Easter Questions

 Questions for an Easter reflection: 

1. Why is the theme of "second chances" so appropriate in the Easter story?

The theme of "second chances" is appropriate in the Easter story because Easter is about Jesus dying on the cross for our sins giving us a "second chance".
2. Why type of God gives second chances? 

 a forgiving god, a saving god

3. If Jesus was really God, how does His death and resurrection give the world a second chance?

The story of jesus dying on the cross then resurrecting from death gave the world a second chance.  Jesus dying made many people have regretful feeling of the things they have done that disappointed themselves and that would have disappointed God.  Jesus resurrecting gave the people a second chance to confess their sins to Jesus Christ.  With this happening, people realized that getting a second chance is very hard, so they should make good use of their first chance.
