About this listen

 Thank you for stopping by. Life raises hard questions. Oasis of Hope brings them to God's Word. Hosted by Drs. Johnson and Feyi Obamehinti, this Christian faith and biblical teaching podcast offers scripture-grounded conversation on the real challenges believers face: spiritual growth, faith, relationships, cultural pressures, and living a kingdom life in a complex and complicated world. Each episode is rooted in prayer, anchored in truth, and offered with pastoral warmth to followers of Christ around the globe. Wherever you are in your walk with God, there is hope here! Scripture References: “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins." – 1 John 4: 10 “But God commends His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” - Romans 5:8 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” – Ephesians 2:8-9 Christians globally are excited to celebrate the resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ on Easter day on April 5th. But before we look to Easter- Resurrection Day, let us sit with the great importance of Good Friday- the day we remember with thanksgiving the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross for humanity. Someone out there in the world, may ask- there is nothing “good” about the day that a man was nailed to the cross and killed. This where we get this opportunity to share the Word of God with anyone struggling with this question. First, Jesus Christ is not just a man like us humans. Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Jesus Christ is God- the second Person of the Trinity. He is God incarnate – meaning Divinity made flesh. Jesus Christ did become man like us, yet He was God. Secondly, Jesus Christ was not killed. He willingly gave Himself to go to the cross for mankind in alignment with God’s plan of redemption for mankind. Lastly, Jesus Christ was fulfilling the plan of God for man’s redemption. It was a Good Friday because our Savior went to the cross willingly with love for mankind. Good Friday is what made Easter possible. Without Good Friday, we have no hope of eternity. Without Good Friday we have no friendship with God. Without Good Friday, we have no atonement of our sins. It is only because of Good Friday; we get to God through Jesus Christ our Savior. It was you that Jesus Christ was thinking about when He was on that cross. This Easter is a great time to come to Jesus Christ. He is saying to you today- no matter where you are, what you have done, how far you may have gone, He is reaching out with arms wide open- beckoning you to come to Him. Come and find new life in Jesus Christ. Begin your resurrected life in Christ today! It is as simple as praying along with us here. Let us know you prayed and asked Jesus Christ into your heart and life. We would love to connect you with fellow believers in Christ in your area. In this episode 100 of Oasis of Hope Podcast, Drs. Johnson & Feyi Obamehinti share the importance of Good Friday and why it is a must for Easter. A special shoutout to the Black Podcast Network for their support. We are grateful to God for the privilege of serving His people. In Christ's Love, Drs. Johnson & Feyi Obamehinti
