Happy Easter to everyone on Team TAH.

And to you too, Good Sir, and a ditto from Firebase Magnolia for all of the miscreanted d’weeds and Adorable Deplorables. Glad you happened along to snag the Easter Open Thread FIRST, I wasn’t going to touch that thing with a long range maverick. Coulda cooked my goose and flew me right into a danger zone. I just put that on ice, man and kept reading the FGS linkys till your comment dropped.

Fond memories of my aunts, uncles, cousins and family
gathering for the event. Corned beef and cabbage. Boiled or
baked ham (ooh the potatoes). Perhaps a shoulder roast as well.
Coctails for the adults as they watch egg hunters uncover any
and everything around the yard in search of the golden one.
Now an old man living alone yet still hopeful for a positive
outcome in life as we await the return of he who left us here.
Be kind to one another fellow warriors. Never give up the struggle
for peace everywhere.

The Stranger

Beans,
Probably from back in the day for you:

Second verse:
When the one who left us here,
Returns for us at last

Happy Easter to you and to my brethren (and sistren) here at TAH.

Graybeard

Amen, 26Lima.

Happy Easter to everyone out there.

Sparks

He is Risen! Morning to all of my TAH family.

Fyrfighter

Amen brother!

Taking the Superstition out and leaving the Supernatural takes digging, but it’s well worth it. The Naked Bible Podcast has a lot of rabbit holes for interesting digging. The J-Man is indeed risen and it’s with Grace and Mercy I’m still here.

Thanks for all you guys n gals do here!

My niece’s children are trying to tell me that I could stop looking. They found all the eggs. But they do not understand. I am not looking for eggs. I am looking for my brains. I have been looking for my brains since this morning. Still no luck. If any of you guys find it, hit me up.

KoB

Your brains are still in your colon, just past your flattened out prostate. They popped out the last time you tried to get your head out of your azz.

Not appropriate to this thread.

But you are forgiven.

I truly love and miss all of you!!

Happy Easter WW. I was thinking of you recently fearing
we had lost a brother. Glad to see that is not the case.

Wilted Willy

Thanks brother, I recently fell and broke my spine, so have not been able to get up and move around too much! Finally able to move a bit now, but a very slow recovery. I keep running into everything with my new walker!!

Graybeard

A happy and blessed Easter to you, too, WW.

I’m glad to see you around from time to time.

May God continue to bless and keep you.

Mt best to everyone on this special holiday.

Had more folks attending our Sunday School class in person than we have had in 13 months today – a few still on Zoom as well.

Without the literal physical death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus, then there is no hope.

But He did physically rise from the dead, therefore we have the opportunity to come before the Father without being cast out into outer darkness because of our sins.

He is Risen, indeed. There is hope, and joy, and peace available to all.

Graybeard

I respectfully disagree with your interpretation. The disciples saw and touched the physically resurrected Christ. “See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; touch Me and see, because a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you [plainly] see that I have.” – Luke 24:39 NASB20 The 1 Corinthians passage to which you refer says: But someone will say, “How are the dead raised? And with what kind of body do they come?” You fool! That which you sow does not come to life unless it dies; and that which you sow, you do not sow the body which is to be, but a bare grain, perhaps of wheat or of something else. But God gives it a body just as He wished, and to each of the seeds a body of its own. All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of mankind, another flesh of animals, another flesh of birds, and another of fish. There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is one, and the glory of the earthly is another. There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown a perishable body, it is raised an imperishable body; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. So also it is written: “The first MAN, Adam, BECAME A LIVING PERSON.” The last Adam was a life-giving spirit. However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man is from heaven. As is the earthy one, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly one, so also are those who are heavenly. Just as… Read more »

Just realized that yesterday was so busy that I did not get on line at all. So, a bit late:

H*A*P*P*Y E*A*S*T*E*R everyone!! Hope your day was as great as mine. Not nearly as strange as last year. Busy, but very good.

He IS risen. However you interpret that, whatever it means to you, may it bring you peace.
