What Does the Resurrection of Jesus Christ From the Dead Have to Do With the Life of an Afghan?

Jesus Christ died so that you could have eternal life. Performing religious rituals does not remove the desire for sin from us, Jesus Christ is the only way that brings us to God. Jesus Christ is alive and He is the only one who can save humanity from their sins.

Palm Sunday remembers and celebrates when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, as foretold in a prophecy in the Old Testament in Isaiah and Zechariah. "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; righteous and having salvation is he, humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey." The people wanted an insurrectionist to topple Rome. Jesus did come to defeat an enemy, but not the one they had in mind. Instead, He came to defeat the enemies of sin, death, and the devil that ensnared every man and woman since Adam and Eve.

In the Christian Faith There Is No Distinction Between Tajik, Pashtun, Hazara and Uzbek.

Unity in Christ transcends ethnic and racial boundaries. In today’s society, where ethnic, linguistic, and cultural differences sometimes become tools for division, the message of the Gospel is a light of hope that breaks through the darkness of separations. The Apostle Paul boldly declares in his letter to the Galatians: "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." (Galatians 3:28) This verse reminds us that in Jesus Christ, earthly identities fade away, and all believers are united as one family in God.

Nowruz and the New Creation in the Light of Christian Faith

Nowruz is not only a national and cultural celebration but also embodies profound concepts of renewal, change, and hope, which can be compared to Christian teachings. 2 Corinthians 5:17 reminds us that in Christ, we are a new creation, and we can leave the past behind and begin a fresh life. Just as Nowruz heralds the arrival of spring and new life in nature, faith in Christ also initiates a new life in humanity. This similarity shows that the message of Nowruz and the message of the Gospel both invite us to renewal, forgiveness, and hope for a bright future.

The Manifestation of God's Power in the Church and the Salvation of Afghanistan

The Church, as the house of God, has always been a place where God's power is manifested. This power is revealed not only through miracles and healings but also in the transformation of lives and communities. The Church is a place where believers clearly feel the presence of God. This presence is sometimes manifested through sermons, worship, and prayers, and at other times in the form of miracles and both spiritual and physical healings. The Bible says: "For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline." (2 Timothy 1:7). It is this power of God that enables the Church to stand firm in the face of challenges and to overcome darkness.
