Bishop Grigorije: Christ is Risen
Bishop Grigorije congratulated all believers celebrating Easter today.
TL;DR
- Easter is considered the most significant and original Christian holiday, central to the Christian year and life.
- It is celebrated annually, every Sunday as the "Lord's Day," and through baptism, signifying a new birth.
- Traditional Christian iconography, like the empty tomb and the Harrowing of Hell, symbolically represents the resurrection rather than showing Christ emerging from the grave.
- The incomprehensible nature of the resurrection is conveyed through symbols, not direct depictions or words.
- The emptiness of Christ's tomb and his continued presence with his followers are presented as clear and understandable proofs of his resurrection.
