San Francisco Easter Retreat Filled with God’s Grace

san francisco

On March 26, SF Gratia Church continued its Easter gathering with the messages from John 18-20.

Pastor Jacob delivered the first Bible lecture by quoting the scripture from John 18 in the morning. He led attendees to look at the self-identity that Jesus had when he was facing sufferings. "We should also have the same self-identity like Jesus that I am the son of God. This is the authority that God has given us. "

The second lecture preached by Pastor Suyan brought a self-questioning that what we are living for. "Pilate and Jewish could kill Jesus because he went against their own interests. Their sins were thoroughly exposed by the cross. Let us all reflect on that if we are living for our own interests."

The third lecture from Pastor Elijah based on John 20, titled "The Resurrection of Jesus" . "What does the resurrection have to do with us?" He shared "Jesus Christ conquered cross, formerly represent as the most tragic part in human lives. Because of that, we could never be bound by despair of death again. The one who believesin the resurrection of Jesus Christ would never fall into hopeless even in difficult situations."
