Easter also symbolizes the triumph of Jesus Christ over death. The gift of eternal life is bestowed upon those who trust in Him by His resurrection.
Easter is a reminder that everything Jesus said and taught during His thirty-three-year ministry has been proven true.
Christians of all denominations flocked to churches around Ghana on Easter Sunday to attend special services. As Christians consider the basic message of Easter—the victory of life over death and the assurance of redemption for those who believe—the attitude is one of reverence, thanks, and hope.
The events leading up to Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection were repeated through scripture readings, prayers, and decorations in churches decorated with flowers and other symbols of rebirth.
Sermons on redemption, forgiveness, and the transforming power of faith were preached by pastors and other religious leaders.
