Don't Pity Me! 

If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied. 1 Corinthians 15:19
 
If this life is all there is, then we’re wasting our time carrying the cross, doing church and all that stuff.

• Christianity is not merely a philosophy. 

• It is not just a lifestyle.

• It is not just another religion.

Christianity is centred on the resurrection of Jesus. 
 
It shouts out ‘This is not all there is!’
Because Jesus has conquered death eternal life is a reality.
 
We are called to live our lives in the context of eternity.

We’re always looking ahead not back and as we approach the end of our earthly lives we’re still looking ahead!
