“We connected and broadcast to Church alliances, Christian federations and groups that attended CLF as well as our mission’s Facebook page in Spain. The most amazing thing was that as the morning broadcast began (Saturday evening local time) the number of people watching quickly grew, and an unprecedented number of people tuned in to watch and there were over 3000 comments. I was able to read messages of how people got saved, how their sins became as white as snow, how they became justified and sanctified in front of God and more. Many people sent their regards and thanked the pastor through the broadcast, I praise God for the hard work of sharing the Word of God.” – Carlos / Mexico (Manager for the South America Internet Service)

Giving service face-to-face online.
As Pastor Park quoted Romans 4:25 ‘Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification’ he preached that “The death of Jesus upon the cross was to pay the price of our sins” and “When Jesus rose again, he came to prove that he has justified us, as if saying ‘Your sins are all solved. Look. Look at my nail pierced hands. Look at my pierced side. I received the punishment for your sins’”.
“Loving folks, we have received the forgiveness of sins by the blood of Jesus and the heart that led Jesus was shared and given to us all. If we look closely at our hearts, the same heart of Jesus who shed his blood for our sins on the cross is flowing in us. To Peter and inside many pastors, there is that heart of Jesus but the wicked Satan did not make Peter focus on that heart but made his heart remain on the fact that he denied Jesus thrice, making him despair, tormented and disappointed and made brought him back to throwing his net at the sea of Galilee. But Jesus came to that Peter. In order to tell Peter ‘I have forgiven all your sins, this is no longer a problem. Feed my lambs’ he said ‘Lovest thou me more than all these?’
Just as Jesus asked Peter, Jesus asks me often as well. He salvaged me out from dirty sin and gave me strength and joy when I was in difficulties. At times when I am sitting down, I want to run out and preach the gospel.

“Loving folks, there is something I want to tell you. You have come for the 2020 Easter worship, but are you also bound by your wrongdoings and mistakes like Peter? Now, do not be led by your thoughts nor by Satan, Look upon the heart of the Lord when you received the forgiveness of sins. ‘How do I have that heart?’ That is not the case. Explore and find it. Folks, you have received the forgiveness of sins by the blood of Jesus. That heart is living and working inside of you. Peter did not have the heart to do so, but when he saw the lame man he said ‘In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk’ and raised the man. You are all a little Jesus. Jesus has made our nametags into ‘Jesus’. Amen Hallelujah. We have been made to live by the name of Jesus of Nazareth. That heart, that spirit is inside of us and has made it so we lack nothing in living like Jesus. We are now people who are together with Jesus of Nazareth. Amen! From the year 2020, live by the name of Jesus. From Easter 2020, the Jesus who rose again and worked in Peter also works in us. Hallelujah. Let us all praise Jesus. Let us praise Jesus who rose again.

Online communion

Each family having the communion
After the morning worship, there was the communion to commemorate the body that was wounded and the blood that was shed for us on the cross.
To us who were dead in sin, Jesus rose again to justify us and manifests himself in our lives. He has given is the life of preaching the gospel and his love to the whole world. Easter 2020 was a day of the great work of the Lord as 6,000,000 people received freedom from their sins and problems and gained the faith that they were given the life to preach the gospel.
This service was evaluated as an exemplary practice of social distancing from various internet users and new media.
